Hello fresh box review: August 2018

How hello fresh works

When signing up, you pick a plan depending on your dietary preferences, schedule and household size. They will deliver your HelloFresh box to your doorstep at the day of your choosing (7 days/week), free of charge. And, you are always in control, as you can pause, modify or cancel your subscription anytime. ​

Whether you are a vegetarian, on a low-calorie diet, or looking for something quick and easy, HelloFresh has recipes that you will love. The dedicated team of chefs works alongside our dietitians to create 15 new recipes each week. They have meals that meet your preferences but you also have the flexibility to select meals from your weekly menu.

pros and cons of hello fresh

We LOVE the Hello Fresh YouTube channel! Each week, they post a brand new cooking video to accompany a recipe from that week's menu. Awesome! ​

The BEST part of Hello Fresh is they beat all other services on variety and choice. There are 15 recipes to choose from in the Classic Plan, six in the family plan, and three in the veggie plan. That is more choices than any other meal box service. And you're not ever locked in! You can mix and match the plans each week, and choose different numbers of servings per meal, and choose a different number of meals each week. Their "Dinner 2 Lunch" options even supply creative ways to transform leftovers into new lunches! Hello Fresh definitely wins here. 

​Hello Fresh is also one of the most environmentally friendly services. The whole kits come in recyclable paper bags, and they keep the plastic to a minimum. Compared to some of the other services, this is a really nice feature. They've even partnered with GiveBackBox.com so you can ship used items to be donated - free!
