I’ve tried 4 meals so far and am so impressed! All of the meals get at least a 9/10 so far, super good and easy instructions

[papabearRN]

I have subscribed for a couple months now. I use ziplock bags to sort my meals. I also keep the recipe cards in a binder.

[Gamer]

they are doing a thing on everyplate where its only $1.39 a meal.... so that definitely got my attention.... i think im gonna try them out... :)

I have been using EasyPlate for almost a year now. I love their meals, but I found that they are basically the same meal with
names. Now, when I get my box, I take recipes and bag them together and put them in the refrig with the name on it. I freeze all the meat until I'm ready. I have collected all the menus, so now I can take the recipe, buy the ingredients, and buy to cook from.
I agree the food I very good and cheap.

[Jenn-ievf]

I actually find putting everything in 1 box is more space saving than 3 seperate bags. Just pull what you need each night after looking at your meal card

[chanthana]

Sounds like a great idea for people who struggle what to cook on daily basis or only 2 mouths in the household that ended up wasting foods because you can't get to it fast enough before it's going bad/expired. Going to give it a shot. Thanks for the review!

[johnjudge]

A helpful review.
I just ordered my first box, and was curious what I'm getting as far as like, "mashed potatoes"? Do I get 4 potatoes and have to prepare mashed potatoes? Looks like it.
The promo offer was too good not to try, but it almost looks like they are saving me from grocery shopping, and reducing my food waste somewhat.
We'll see.
Thanks for the heads up.

Why is it so much cheaper than other competitors? Everyplate doesnt provide butter or ketchup, etc but what else enables them to sell at such a lower price?

[PeterSedesse]

when you choose your meals it does show you what is not included. it is usually only butter, cooking oil, milk, ketchup and then salt and pepper. pretty much nothing you wouldnt normally have in the house.

[kell_checks_in]

My local food bank accepts the boxes and cooling packs as donations. They give out about a week's worth of food at a time and include perishables and chilled items, so they make good use of them when handing out food to people. Call and ask if your food banks do the same! Re. ingredients, I usually split them into separate bowls immediately when putting things away so I can just grab what I need for a recipe later.

[traciebecker]

It's been awhile since you made this video but you did a wonderful job.
I keep a well stocked pantry so I dont mind using my own butter, catsup, mayo, spices, etc.
I would definitely try this, since I have no grocery delivery here and can no longer drive.

I've been using Everyplate for about 3 weeks now. 3 meals per week for 2 people. I like it because I get to make something I normally would never make. One or two I didn't care for, but mostly they turn out delicious. Recipes with steak and seafood are premium and cost about $5 more per serving so I haven't tried those. I stick to pasta/rice, chicken, beef, and pork recipes just due to cost. There is more than enough per portion and the cost is fair for the taste and convenience. It usually takes me a little longer to make than the recipe card calls for, but I think I will get faster after doing this a while. In the past I would look up recipes, buy lots of ingredients that I may only use once. They end up expiring in my pantry/fridge. Everyplate only sends what you need.

[beccajean]

We have been using it for months and we will continue for the foreseeable future. We have our favorites but we try new things all the time and they are most always great, at the very least decent. Occasionally the pork portions aren't great and need trimming but it's not always that way.

[mookiecookie]

2:50 what kind of a pot is that for cooking pasta????

[jzerocat]

Just finished my 1st weeks box and I'm loving it so far, really takes the pain of thinking about what to cook

[Blessingsplustaxify]

Thank you for your honest review. I'll check them out..on another note, hope you cleaned that kitchen counter well after you put that box on there🙂🙃

[NinjiaJoeLife]

i’m interested. but i’m afraid about the portion. are they enough for a male adult😊

[CohlTrain]

How much is it for 7 days of food? It doesn't really say on the site.

[gingerblack]

Would you speak of cheap how much is it per week for the two serving? And how many meals per week?

[sanest]

Only bad thing is there's no way to put dietary restrictions for example I can't eat pork but there's no way to guarantee I won't get any
