Credibility and Reputation

Chefs Plate: Meal Plans & Cost

Chefs Plate has three different food subscription box options to choose from. All the boxes are equally priced, and delivery is always free when you order more than two recipes for more than two people each week. Overall, we noticed that Chefs Plate definitely puts more emphasis on quick meals than most other meal kit companies do. Many meals only take 15 minutes to cook. Chefs Plate meals are simpler and easier than many other brands' meals, but they are equally fresh and tasty.

The cost per meal will depend on how many people you’re ordering for and how many recipes you choose. The cheapest price per serving is $8.99 and the most you’ll pay is $11.99. This makes Chefs Plate a favourite among customers looking for excellent value for money, especially in times when grocery is becoming increasingly expensive.

Meat and Vegetables Box

If you and your family eat everything, this plan will be the best for you. It includes the widest variety of meat, seafood, and vegetarian recipes. Some recipes will need 30 minutes of your time, while others will require only 15 minutes. You can order two or four servings of two to five meals per week.

Vegetarian Box

This plan includes delicious vegetarian recipes packed with fresh produce, whole grains, and plant-based protein. You can choose two or four servings of two to five meals per week.

Family Box

What makes this plan different from the previous two is that it contains healthy, easy, and kid-friendly recipes that will help you spend more family time together. You can invite the kids to help you with cooking or reading the recipes, adding more fun and education to your daily routine with them. Similarly to other plans, you can order two or four servings of two to five meals per week.
