Continue reading for more details and my reviews of other services!

The Best Meal Delivery Services in Baltimore Reviewed

1. Factor – Best Prepared Meals in Baltimore

Factor delivers nutritionally balanced and ready-to-heat meals right to your doorstep. Prepared meals mean you don’t have to worry about prep work or cooking. All you have to do is pop the meal in the microwave for a couple of minutes.

What’s on the Menu?

The menu is diverse, including keto, vegan, and vegetarian options. The company also caters to people on a low-calorie or high-protein diet. To find the meals that work best for you, Factors uses a system of colorful tags that bear the name of your diet (Chef’s Choice, Keto, Calorie Smart, Flexitarian, Protein Plus, and Vegan & Veggie).

Factor’s meals range from 350-900 calories per serving, depending on your diet. Most recipes feature a combination of lean protein, complex carbs, and fresh vegetables. According to my colleague’s in-depth review of Factor, every dish is GMO-free and made with mostly organic produce.

If the core menu is not enough, the Add-ons menu is there to fill in the gaps. Factor has many extras on offer, including breakfasts, smoothies, snacks, proteins, juices, shakes, healthy desserts, and more.

What Makes It Special?

Keto dieters will find Factor’s menu particularly appealing, with a majority of dishes tailored to their needs. On the other hand, vegans and vegetarians now can enjoy Factor’s newest additions – Flexitarian or Vegan & Veggie plans. This is a great improvement compared to its previous 5 to 8 vegan and vegetarian meals per week.

Factor also offers you a free 20-minute online meeting with dietitians and nutrition coaches. This unique feature is great if you need help forming healthy eating habits and making the most of your Factor subscription. If you like the help you get in your first session, you can sign up for more.

Is It Good Value?

Factor offers meals with high nutritional value. Professional nutritionists craft well-balanced dishes while skilled chefs prepare them. Given these points, I believe this Baltimore meal subscription service is worth considering.

Prices start at $10.49 per single-serving meal, but you'll get the best value when committing to the maximum order size. Subscription sizes range between 6-18 meals per week, and the most popular box size is 10 meals per week.

2. Green Chef – Best Organic Meals in Baltimore

Green Chef is a meal delivery service dedicated to sustainability. It offers organic, ethically sourced ingredients and environmentally friendly practices. With 45+ weekly menu items, Green Chef is also a great option for those looking to eat healthier while also following a specific diet.

What’s on the Menu?

The meal kits are accessible to all skill levels, and pre-made ingredients (like sauces and marinades) make them easier to prepare. Most recipes take between 25 and 30 minutes to prepare and cook, but this also depends on your skill level in the kitchen.

For instance, a recipe like Blackened Shrimp and Grits only takes 25 minutes to prep and cook. Even though it might sound intimidating at first, you’ll be able to cook it to perfection due to the detailed instructions. It may take you a bit longer when you start, but once you get the gist of it, you’ll be able to match the indicated prep time.

Green Chef also offers an extensive selection of add-ons where you can find a wide range of items that can help spice up the core menu. For instance, you can find loads of cooked proteins (Sustainably Raised Atlantic Salmon Filets or Organic Ground Beef), 10-min lunches, and a good selection of breakfasts like oatmeal and keto-friendly egg bites.

What Makes It Special?

Even if you’re a newbie in the kitchen, you’ll be able to enjoy Green Chef’s meals. According to my colleague’s tried-and-tested Green Chef review, the recipe cards are clear and helpful. Recipes include detailed steps along with informative photos.

I also like that the quality of the ingredients used in the meal kits is top-notch. Most of the produce and eggs are organic, and the beef and chicken are raised to high animal welfare standards. As a result, the meals are tastier and healthier.

This USDA-certified company offers a complimentary 20-minute nutrition coaching session for prospective subscribers. If you need help or advice with your diet, a registered dietitian can help you with that.

Is It Good Value?

Green Chef is a great choice for health-conscious people. It’s also a good choice for couples and larger households, as you can order for up to 6 people per week. You get more than just healthy food because the service offers nutrition coaching sessions. If you live by yourself or if your food preferences differ from those of your family, Factor should make a better choice.

Green Chef is on the pricier side, with prices starting at $9.99 per serving for the maximum box size (4 meals for 6 people per week). There’s also a 2-person plan that’s great for couples, but the cost per serving is steeper than for larger orders.

3. Blue Apron – Best Gourmet Meal Delivery Service in Baltimore

Blue Apron is one of the best meal delivery services for restaurant-worthy dinners. With a wide variety of meal kits and prepared meals – from classic American and international flavors to gourmet dishes –  Blue Apron ensures that every mealtime is exciting.

What’s on the Menu?

The meal kits are easily prepared with Ready to Cook low-prep recipes. Plus, there are various family-friendly recipes each week that include simple and delicious ingredients everyone will love. Meals like Seared Chicken & Dijon Pan Sauce or Three Cheese Pizza are easy to prep and cook (35 to 45 minutes) and are appreciated by kids and adults.

Our reviewer discovered that Blue Apron offers customizable swaps and add-ons for several recipes each week, which is a great way to personalize your menu. For instance, you can turn your vegetarian Pesto Gnocchi into a heartier dish with shrimp or Hot Italian Pork Sausage. These upgrades do, however, come with an upcharge.

If you prefer heat-and-eat options, go for Prepared & Ready dishes. You’ll find 16 of these offerings per week. Their standard serving time is 5 or so minutes, and labels like Carb Conscious and 30 g of Protein point out their main features.

What Makes It Special?

Vegetarians and low-carb dieters will appreciate meal kits from the Veggies and Wellness plans, though the selection may be limited. You can also customize your order by adding à la carte appetizers, desserts, snacks, sides, and even prepared meals for up to 2 people from the Add-ons menu.

Blue Apron sources high-quality ingredients from a network of 100+ family-run farms that practice sustainable farming. The company only works with suppliers who don’t use added hormones or antibiotics. As a result, you can be sure that the ingredients in your meals have been produced responsibly.

I like that the company is actively seeking ways to reduce its carbon footprint and packaging material waste. Over 85% of Blue Apron packaging is recyclable (plastic containers, metal cans, glass bottles, and cardboard boxes). You can’t recycle plastic film, bags, or the plastic metallic bubble insulation that keeps the products fresh during transit.

Is It Good Value?

Competitive pricing, high-quality ingredients, and sustainability efforts make Blue Apron a great choice. Also, it’s among the rare meal delivery services in Baltimore that allows you to try its meals without subscribing first. To do so, visit its on-site Market section.

In terms of pricing, I like that Blue Apron offers great value and flexibility. The starting price is $3.74 per serving. Subscription sizes start at 2 kits for 2 people or 4 prepared meals per week. There is no hard maximum for any of these meal types. Though you can’t mix and match these, you can place 2 separate orders or switch your box type from week to week.

4. HelloFresh – Best Menu Variety for Baltimore Families

HelloFresh offers convenient and budget-friendly meal kits for a variety of tastes. The large menu also supports a number of dietary needs. I like it when menus have options from a variety of cuisines, and HelloFresh delivers just that.

What’s on the Menu?

HelloFresh boasts a diverse menu of 100+ meal kits and other items each week. Most options change regularly, except for the most beloved recipes. Look for standout dishes identified by tags such as Best Recipe 2024, Premium Picks, and Hall of Fame.

Most of the recipes are standard American fare, but the menu also features internationally-inspired dishes from around the world. These include Sweet Chili Beef & Cabbage Stir-Fry and Southwest Stuffed Zucchini Boats.

Best of all, HelloFresh has a surprisingly large selection of diet-friendly meals. The vast menu has plenty of vegetarian recipes – and even some vegan options – each week. The menu caters to other dietary needs as well, including low-calorie and high-protein.

What Makes It Special?

Our reviewer found that HelloFresh is a great option for families with children. After all, even the pickiest of eaters enjoy comfort foods like Cheesy Smashed Burgers or the Guac Lover’s Burrito Bowl. Its recipes aren’t always the healthiest in the market, but they’re guaranteed to please the family. If you’re after healthy meals, check out Green Chef.

Since the menu is extensive, each meal is labeled according to difficulty level and diet. It would be even better if you could filter the menu, but the tags make it easy to browse. Other tags on the menu include Seasonal, Easy Prep, Spicy, and more.

HelloFresh also offers some customization options, expanding its menu even more. This feature is called HelloCustom and lets you change, swap, or upgrade 12+ sides and proteins each week. It’s not as extensive as Home Chef’s Customize It feature, but it’s still a great option.

Is It Good Value?

The business has a large menu and competitive pricing, making it 1 of the best meal delivery services in Baltimore. I would’ve loved to see gluten-free and/or nut-free meals, but HelloFresh’s menu is mostly designed for a more general audience. So, if you have any allergies, make sure to check the ingredient list on each recipe.

As mentioned, the service is budget-friendly, with prices that start at $3.32 per serving. The best price is for the maximum box size (6 recipes for 4 people per week), and HelloFresh’s smaller plans are more expensive per serving. 

5. Home Chef – Best for Customization Options

Home Chef is a great choice for couples and families. It provides the right balance between tasty and healthy and offers meals inspired by various international cuisines. What’s more, it caters to people with different time availability and introduces upcoming recipes up to 6 weeks in advance.

What’s on the Menu?

Home Chef has an extensive menu containing dozens of entrees and extras. And you can find everyday options as well as meals suitable for special occasions there. If feeding a family, click on the corresponding link in the lower-left corner of the screen to check out the best family-friendly recipes.

I like that everything is tagged and categorized, so you don’t have to browse the entire menu looking for the recipes you want. For instance, under the Culinary Collection label, you’ll find restaurant-quality meals that take around 60 minutes. In the Express section, you’ll find low-prep meals that take 15 to 25 minutes.

Other sections that indicate low-prep meals are Oven-Ready, Lunch, and Fast & Fresh. Also, if you want a bit more variety, check the Bundle & Save and Extras sections. Here you’ll find soups, breakfast and lunch options, cooked proteins, snacks, and beverages.

What Makes It Special?

Home Chef is famous for its Customize It feature that allows you to swap proteins. As an example, if you want to try the Shrimp Bruschetta Risotto, you can have it as it is on the menu or change the shrimp with Double Protein Shrimp, Steak Strips, or Diced Boneless Skinless Chicken Breasts.

Despite all this flexibility, Home Chef isn’t suitable for people with food allergies or restrictive diets since most dishes cater to a general palate. Plus, some meals include organic ingredients, but this isn’t the norm. I do have to mention, though, that you’ll find a decent selection of meals with Gluten-Smart and Keto-Friendly tags, which are quite new.

Is It Good Value?

Home Chef’s meals vary in degrees of complexity, from easy to medium difficulty, as our expert reviewer discovered. But everyone will be able to find something to fit their taste and skill level. Home Chef provides dozens of vegetarian meals per week. But if you’re a devout vegan, you should check Purple Carrot instead.

You can also get creative with the ingredients during cooking since Home Chef is a meal kit delivery service. Still, if you’re not that skilled in the kitchen, I recommend following the recipe cards. They’re well-designed, and all the steps come with instructions and images, so it’s easy to see how your dish should look at every stage.

Home Chef is great for couples and families since you can order for 2, 4, or 6 people, and the prices start at $7.99 per serving. You can order between 2 and 6 dishes person.

6. Fresh and Easy – Best Speedy Meal Kits

If you want convenient and healthy meals, you can’t go wrong with Fresh and Easy! The service is a subsidiary of Home Chef and includes all the low-prep meals from the big menu. You’ll find oven-ready meals, 15-minute meal kits, grill-ready dishes, and Fast & Fresh recipes that take a little under 25 minutes to prep. And there are a few entree salads as well.

What’s on the Menu?

Fresh and Easy provides a range of quick-prep and effortless meal solutions. Check the Express section for meals you can serve in 30 minutes. The serving time for some of these dishes is as little as 15 minutes. The remaining options in this section cater to those who don't mind a bit more prep time. For low-effort dining, the Oven-Ready meals are a great choice.

Fresh and Easy offers an exciting selection of international dishes, like Chili Cheese Beef Tri-Tip Tacos, Shrimp and Vegetable Gyros, or Greek-Style Chicken with Orzo Salad. You can learn more about the menu and options from our in-depth Fresh and Easy review.

The only downside is the lack of options for some specific dietary needs, but I guess you can’t have it all. So if you want more plant-based options or you’re on a restrictive diet (like paleo), you may want to try a service like Green Chef. It does have the same Gluten-Smart and Keto-Friendly menu tags, though, just like Home Chef.

What Makes It Special?

Fresh and Easy makes it easy to cook by making sure all the ingredients are chopped and portioned. There’s no need for washing, peeling, slicing, or dicing – all of the prep work is done for you.

Customization is also available on the Express sub-menu, so you’ll be able to make a few changes by swapping the default protein with something a bit yummier. However, Fast & Fresh meals can’t be customized.

Is It Good Value?

The main goal of Fresh and Easy is to make it easier for people to enjoy home cooking without the hassle of meal planning and prepping. For this, it has various strategies. For example, oven-ready meals have an oven-safe tray, so you can easily assemble the ingredients and pop the tray in the oven. Less prep and no mess!  

Due to all this effort and dedication toward easy-prep meals, I honestly think Fresh and Easy is an excellent option for those who want to enjoy a variety of meals with minimal preparation.

Lastly, Fresh and Easy’s prices are the same as Home Chef’s. This means that you can order 6 meals per week for up to 6 people, and the starting price is $7.99 per serving. There is also a 2-person plan, with a minimum order of 2 meals per week.

7. BistroMD – Best for Baltimoreans Looking to Lose Weight

BistroMD is a weight-loss-focused meal delivery service with physician-designed meals to help you lose weight. The service features ready-made meals (frozen and shelf-stable) with options for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks.

What’s on the Menu?

BistroMD has 1 of the largest menus among the meal delivery services operating in Baltimore. It features about 150 meals, many of which fall into different plans. But note that the menu doesn't rotate. However, the meal selection is large enough to avoid repetition.

The dishes are low in calories and sodium, so you’ll also be eating healthy but tasty food. Plus, BistroMD offers a variety of programs for men and women, such as Signature Program, Gluten Free, Heart Healthy, Keto Flex, Diabetic, Vegan, and Menopause (for women over 55).

The menu is quite extensive, but you’ll only have access to the meals that fit your plan. For instance, if you choose the Gluten Free meal plan, you won’t be able to see meals that contain gluten. On the other hand, with the Heart Healthy program, you’ll only see meals that meet the American Heart Association's requirements for sodium and fat.

What Makes It Special?

Each program is available in 5-day or 7-day weekly formats. All plans include lunch and dinner, while the Full Program adds breakfast as well. You can also add snacks to any plan.

In addition to the meal options, BistroMD also provides helpful advice from its team of dietitians, nutritionists, and wellness coaches. This is a good source of tips and support to help you reach your diet and lifestyle goals.

Is It Good Value?

Overall, I didn’t find the meals particularly appealing. Sure, there is a good variety of international cuisines (like Mexican, Italian, and Asian), but the recipes are more about nutritional facts than refined taste.

Our reviewer tried BistroMD and agrees that it’s a good option for those who are serious about losing weight. But if you’re looking for gourmet meals, you’re better off with a service like Blue Apron.

Prices start at $8.24 per serving, but there is a lot of variety depending on which plan you choose. The minimum order is lunches and dinners for 5 days per week.

8. Purple Carrot – Best 100% Plant-Based Menu in Baltimore

Purple Carrot caters to individuals seeking a diet free from animal products, focusing on meals made from genuine plant ingredients. Unlike some competitors that lean on alternative meats like Beyond products, Purple Carrot prioritizes authentic plant-based meals.

What’s on the Menu?

Purple Carrot's menu is a diverse collection of recipes from around the world. So there’s no risk of you getting stuck with a boring menu that only includes salads and soups. Instead, you get to try nutrient-rich meals like Coconut Ginger Congee with Crispy Tofu or Falafel Spiced Tofu with Pickled Cauliflower & Creamy Cashew Dressing. Yum!

The meal kits section has options for dinner, breakfast, and lunch (plus snacks). Some of these kits are marked Less Prep to indicate speedy meals that only need about 25 to 30 minutes to prep and cook. In their review, my colleague talks about what it’s like to eat with Purple Carrot, so make sure to check it out.

The prepared meals section only has entrees, but there’s a good variety of dishes. You’ll find everything from international cuisines to veggie versions of classic crowd-pleasers, like West African Peanut Stew and Mac N’ Cheese. All the recipes on this menu are under 600 calories and only need around 2 minutes in the microwave.

What Makes It Special?

I like that most of Purple Carrot’s meals have between 350 and 800 calories per serving. This means that you can enjoy the benefits of a plant-based diet even if you’re on a weight loss journey.

Plus, since we’re talking about a 100% plant-based service, some common allergens (like dairy) are out by default. And there are plenty of gluten-, soy-, and nut-free recipes.

Purple Carrot stands out for its dedication to sustainability. The company uses packaging that’s both recyclable and biodegradable. And you'll get detailed guidance on how to dispose of it responsibly.

Is It Good Value?

I do like the idea of dishes made with high-quality, fresh veggies, but I think the menu is a little limited. There’s variety, but if you stick with a weekly subscription, you may get bored after a while.

So if you’re not on a 100% vegan diet, you may want to consider a more varied menu. Green Chef has vegan and vegetarian recipes, as well as keto and other meat-based dishes.

Since Purple Carrot caters to a niche diet, it’s a bit on the pricier side. The cost per serving starts at $8.50 for the maximum meal kit order (3 meals per person for 4 people). There is also a 2-person plan, with a minimum order of 3 meals per week. Prepared meals are typically a bit pricier, and you can order 6, 8, or 10 single-serving dishes per week.

9. Marley Spoon – Best for Menu Variety

Marley Spoon is a meal kit delivery service with a huge menu. It has a weekly rotating menu and promotes upcoming meals 4 weeks in advance. What’s more, the service offers ingredient customization for the bulk of its offerings. And it makes a serious effort to invest in a sustainable future.

What’s on the Menu?

Marley Spoon caters to several dietary needs, but it’s up to you to pick the recipes. The extensive menu (over 100 recipes each week) can be daunting to navigate. Luckily, you can search by tags that accompany every meal on the menu.

Recipes are marked with dietary tags like Dairy Free, No Added Gluten, and Fish. There are also tags for different prep options like Under 30 Minutes and One Pot Meal. Finally, some tags are for various preferences like Optional Spice or Climatarian.

Marley Spoon’s broad selection includes breakfasts, lunches, snacks, and desserts. There are some ready-made options sprinkled throughout each week’s menu, too. For more on menu variety and meals, make sure to check out our in-depth Marley Spoon review.

What Makes It Special?

There are many kid-friendly dishes on the menu, so there's no need to worry if you have little ones. Marley Spoon’s selection of family-friendly dishes is large enough to rival HelloFresh’s crowd-pleasing menu. Marley Spoon has a more varied selection, but it’s also more expensive.

The menu comprises elevated American dishes as well as internationally-inspired recipes. Some of the latter are the Middle Eastern-inspired Turkey Koftas & Couscous Salad or the Pan-Asian Savory Pork Noodle Soup.

Sustainability is at the top of Marley Spoon's priorities. It partakes in carbon offset initiatives such as tree planting to balance out its carbon emissions. Consistent with this commitment, the company utilizes 100% recyclable packaging.

Is It Good Value?

Marley Spoon has a large menu that suits many dietary needs and preferences. But it doesn’t categorize its meals like most other providers on our list of the best meal delivery services in Baltimore. For that reason, you have to browse through recipes to check their ingredients and see if they’re a good fit for you.

Marley Spoon has 2- and 4-person plans, and you can order between 2 and 6 meals with either. For the maximum box size (6 meals for 4 people), prices start at $2.99 per serving. Smaller plans come with higher per-serving prices.

10. Dinnerly – Best for Baltimoreans on a Budget

Dinnerly makes it possible to enjoy convenient home-cooked meals on a budget. With such low prices, it’s natural to wonder how Dinnerly manages to offer over 100 menu items each week. You have to compromise somewhere, and it’s up to you whether the compromises are worth it.

What’s on the Menu?

The service doesn’t compromise on ingredient quality or freshness. Instead, Dinnerly keeps prices low by focusing on simple recipes that rarely have more than 6 ingredients. While simple, the meals are crowd-pleasers like One-Pot Pizza Tortelloni or Teriyaki-Glazed Turkey Meatballs.

You'll find many dishes on the menu inspired by famous cuisines other than American. Many of them include meat, but there are also options for pescatarians and plant eaters. I find most of the offerings suitable for lunch or dinner. But the menu also includes some breakfast and dessert options. You can check the menu 4 weeks in advance.

Refer to tags to shortlist your favorite meals. Dinnerly has a host of these, and some of them are Dairy Free, No Added Gluten, Seafood, Poultry, and Kid Friendly. The downside is that the meal subscription service doesn't break down meals by type, like Keto, Paleo, etc. So, you'll have to check each recipe to see if it's the right fit for you.

What Makes It Special?

Ingredients-wise, Dinnerly only works with local, trustworthy suppliers to make sure only the best and freshest ingredients reach your box. Also, all the meat is produced following US standards of quality, and there are even a few organic ingredients. This was 1 of the factors that pleasantly surprised my colleague while working on their in-depth review of Dinnerly.

You can also customize many meals by swapping the protein (similar to how Home Chef does it). If you want something fancier, you can upgrade the protein to the organic version. This also comes with an upcharge per serving, but it’s a great option to have for when you want to spoil yourself.

Dinnerly cuts more corners when it comes to packaging. It uses a minimum of materials for the box, insulation, and other materials. When you open your Dinnerly box, fresh ingredients aren’t wrapped in unnecessary plastic. I think this is a reasonable compromise for the low price that also helps cut down on waste.

Is It Good Value?

Overall, Dinnerly’s low price may be worth the compromises. Just don’t forget to consider the shipping fee ($11.99 per order) and the optional upcharges for customizations and premium meals.

Prices start at $2.12 per serving for the maximum box size of 6 meals for 4 people each week. The per-serving price increases for smaller orders, but even the minimum order of 2 meals for 2 people is cheaper than most other services on my list.

Bonus: Nutrisystem – A Complete Weight Loss Solution 

Nutrisystem’s restricted-calorie plans are a great option for Baltimoreans looking to lose weight. On Nutrisystem, you get 3 meals a day plus snacks to cover your nutritional needs. Each dish is perfectly portioned to promote weight loss while making sure you get all the vitamins and nutrients you need.

What’s on the Menu?

You can browse the Nutrisystem menu by Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner, and Snacks. Each has dozens of items, both fresh and frozen. Food requiring thawing comes with the Frozen label, so it's easy to tell fresh from frozen meals. 

Some fresh Dinners I find particularly tempting are White Cheddar Mac & Cheese, Meatballs in Marinara Sauce, and Chicken Pasta Enchilada. Frozen recipes I highly recommend are Ravioli Formaggio, Sesame Beef & Broccoli, and Roasted Turkey Medallions. Cafe-Style Soup Creamy Tomato and Spinach and Cheese Pretzel Melt are my Lunch favorites. 

You can customize the menu by filtering out unwanted ingredients. This is a great choice for those with mild allergies or ingredients they don’t like. Unfortunately, Nutrisystem prepares all meals in the same area. If you have serious gluten sensitivities, you may want to check out our list of the best gluten-free meal delivery services.

What Makes It Special?

You’ll eat 6 small meals and snacks a day on the Nutrisystem diet. This keeps your blood sugar level steady and helps you resist cravings that can lead you to cheat on your diet. Our reviewer found that Nutrisystem is a good option for short-term weight loss. 

Nutrisystem's Partner Plan is ideal for Baltimore couples aiming to lose weight together. Losing weight is easier when you’re dieting with a partner, and this plan is designed to support your mutual goals. It provides both of you structured, healthy meals you can share on your weight loss journey.

Is It Good Value?

Nutrisystem is great for individuals and couples seeking to lose weight. But if you’re after restaurant-quality meals, you may wish to check Factor instead. Also, note that fresh and frozen deliveries typically occur at different times.

Nutrisystem’s NuMi app is an excellent tool for tracking your food, water, and activity. You’ll receive daily motivators, exclusive offers, and fun challenges. It’s like having a personal weight loss coach in your pocket.

Nutrisystem’s cheapest plan starts at $9.64 per day for women. Plans for men are slightly pricier, as they include additional snacks and larger portions. Keep in mind that Nutrisystem provides all your food for 5 or 7 days per week, so you’ll be spending very little on groceries.

Quick Comparison Table

Tips for Choosing the Best Meal Delivery Services in Baltimore

Baltimore is a city with lots of food services and a rich culinary scene, so it can be difficult to find the right meal delivery service on your first try. Here are some of the most important features I considered when making this list:

• Food quality: Choose a meal delivery service that uses top-notch, fresh ingredients. Green Chef, for example, focuses on using organic items, especially for produce and eggs.
  

• Variety of meals: Whether or not you adhere to a specific diet, selecting a service offering a broad selection of meal options is advisable. This approach allows you to experience a greater diversity of cuisine and provides more opportunities for experimentation. HelloFresh is a good example of a service that offers a diverse menu.
  

• Meal kits vs. prepared meals: While there are a few services that offer both, most meal delivery services focus on 1 or the other. If you like cooking and have the time, you may find a service like Green Chef to be a great choice. On the other hand, if you’re looking for meals that only need 2 minutes in the microwave, you should check out Factor’s menu.

• Cost: One of the fantastic things about Baltimore is that it caters to all budgets; you just need to find the right options. To determine the best meal delivery service for your budget, consider the price per serving and the size of the box. For instance, Dinnerly, the best budget-friendly choice on my list, offers orders for either 2 or 4 people.
