Plated Review & 50% Off Coupon Code
Plated is weekly meal and recipe subscription service. Each week on Monday at noon EST they release their new recipes, and you can pick which ones you are interested in or skip that week. The meals then get delivered via FedEx on the following Wednesday. The packages are sent with cooler packaging and ice packs and shipped 2-day air so everything arrives cold.
Between Plated and Hello Fresh I’ve become officially addicted to these meal services. The recipes are fantastic and interesting, the ingredients are incredibly fresh, and of course the finished meals are amazing too!
The great thing about Plated is that while they are a subscription and offer a discount on meals if you sign up for their membership plan, you also can try the service without signing up for a membership. That’s what we’ve done so far, but I might upgrade to the membership soon since we like Plated so much!
A look at how the vegetables and other ingredients are packaged. (They include everything besides basic ingredients like pepper and salt). The meat is packaged separately from the vegetables under the ice packs.
The Subscription Box: Plated

The first meal we tried was the Rosemary Roasted Chicken with Parsnips and Carrots
I love that they include detailed instructions with lots of pictures – I am not a very confident chef and need all the help I can get!
This meal was delicious and very sophisticated! It definitely seemed like a meal I would order at a fancy restaurant!
The other meal we ordered was the Seared Tuna Sushi Bowl.
My husband loves spicy tuna rolls, so we decided to give this one a try even though I had never cooked fish before!
Fortunately it turned out great – it tasted just like sushi in a bowl!
Verdict: I can’t say enough good things about Plated – I love it! I definitely recommend trying it with the coupon – I think it’s worth it. (I’ve been encouraging all my family and friends to sign up I like it so much!)
Have you tried Plated yet? What do you think of it?

So now tasty our tried Plated, Hello Fresh, and Blue Apron, which is the best bang for the buck?
None of these “make-your-own meal” boxes deliver to Louisiana! I am so jealous that you all get to try such amazing meals! Hopefully they will expand to my area soon!
I think Peach Dish delivers to Louisiana! Their food is delicious! I have a coupon code for $5 off if you ever want to try it!
Thank you for the Shout Out. We are glad that you are enjoying the PeachDish Adventure. We at PeachDish love to offer 3 courses!
Yummy already had these 2 meals and they were awesome! although my first delivery was missing an ingredient. I emailed them and they got back to me with 2 free meals. customer service A+
I agree – their customer service is super helpful and responds faster than I would expect!
We are going on 10 weeks of delivery service – not one bad meal! They have all been amazing and some even restaurant quality. No repeats. The mushroom asaigo chicken with roasted broccolini – yum!! Can’t wait for next week!
