How food boxes help with healthy eating

Food boxes provide a fun and healthy way to change your home-eating patterns. A food box means you know exactly how much you’re eating, too, since everything is pre-portioned for your convenience. What’s more, you’ll be less tempted to order takeout food during hectic mid-week periods; come home to a fully stocked fridge that’ll have you eating well in 30 minutes or less. Food boxes can also help with more specific diets and weight-loss plans. You’ll find impressive low-carb, vegan, and vegetarian options on the menu each week to help pull back on high sodium or fatty meal choices. Rest assured, you’ll still enjoy a world of sensational flavors!

FAQs about our food boxes:

We pack all of our food boxes just before shipping, with fresh, ethically sourced produce coming straight to your door via our production teams (who inspect for quality and pre-portion everything for you). During the delivery process, we keep all meat, dairy and typically-refrigerated items cool using ice packs, meaning your box should stay fresh even if you’re not home for the delivery. All our food boxes are as sustainably packed as possible and the vast majority of our packaging is recyclable, too.

Food boxes do indeed represent excellent value for money – including shipping, it’s likely to be around the same cost as a weekly grocery shop. You’ll certainly pay a lot, lot less per portion than you would ordering takeout or going for a restaurant meal – without losing out on the quality! What’s more, you’ll be doing your bit to reduce food waste, since you’ll receive exactly the amount of food you need for each recipe.
We ask you for your preferred delivery day and time slot during the sign-up process. This will be your designated weekly delivery slot, so you can build your meal planning around delivery day and beyond for the week, depending on how many meals you opt to have delivered.
Our food box delivery is designed to be used weekly; this makes meal planning quicker and life easier. You are able to skip a week if you don’t need the delivery, for example when you go on holiday. We want to reduce food waste as much as possible, so skip as many weeks as you need to – you are always in control!

With an exceptional variety on offer each and every week, you can select recipes that suit your desired meal plan. Special diets welcome! Whether you want healthy meals, low-carb options, meaty dishes or vegetarian, Marley Spoon provides meal options for you.
