Meal Delivery Services to Try in Quarantine

Meal delivery services take the guesswork out of what to cook for dinner. Each week, you can browse the menu offerings online and select which you'd like to receive (typically two to four meals per week). Your food arrives in an insulated box to keep everything fresh, with each meal packaged in its own bag with pre-portioned ingredients and an easy-to-follow recipe.

Here are three services that delivery restaurant-quality meals at home while still sticking to your diet and keeping everything in budget.

Sun Basket

Even if you hate cooking (guilty!), you'll love Sun Basket. You can choose your meals based on how much prep work you're willing to do — there's even an oven-ready option for the nights when you really don't feel like cooking. Sun Basket features organic produce, antibiotic- and hormone-free meat, and wild-caught seafood. In addition to dinner, they also offer options for breakfast, lunch, and snacks.

Price: Starting at $10.99/serving.

Green Chef
