7 Best Vegan Meal Delivery Services 2025: Updated

Vegan-friendly meal delivery services come in all forms. Some offer freezer-friendly prepared meals that just need to be zapped in the microwave, some offer meal kits that you cook from scratch – and some offer both! The hardest part is picking the right service.

To help you save time, I tested and researched dozens of services. Every service on this shortlist has been tested by the DeliveryRank team and we’ve compiled a list of the best vegan-friendly meal delivery services to suit a range of lifestyles.

Purple Carrot is my top meal delivery service for vegans, as it’s a fully plant-based service that offers meal kits as well as prepared meals. In addition to being vegan, it also caters to a range of other dietary needs. Whether you’re going plant-based for the first time, want to get healthier, or are looking for new ideas, there’s something for you on my list.  

The Best Vegan Meal Delivery Services Reviewed

1. Purple Carrot – Best for Plant-Based Variety

Purple Carrot is an all-vegan meal delivery service with a wide range of recipes. The menu is divided into meal kits and prepared meals, and you also have access to extras that include spices, sauces, healthy desserts, and grocery items like pasta and plant-based cheese.

What’s on the Menu?

Each week, Purple Carrot offers 40+ unique recipes, including meal kits, prepared meals, and an additional selection of breakfasts and lunches. The meal kits include some Less Prep options which only take about 30 minutes to prepare. All these meals and extras cater to various dietary requirements, such as gluten-free, nut-free, and high protein.

Purple Carrot’s recipes have been designed to celebrate veggies – a feature we appreciated when we tested Purple Carrot. Plus, all the meals contain complex carbohydrates, healthy fats, and lean proteins (all derived from veggies, seeds, nuts, and fruits). Each recipe contains between 500 and 800 calories per serving and is designed to provide you with energy for the entire day.

Purple Carrot’s menu is a combination of recipes inspired by international cuisines known for their focus on cooking with plants. I honestly fell in love with recipes like Almond Butter Tofu or Pesto Flatbreads because they’re flavorful and satisfying. Additionally, I’m sure you’ll fall in love with the Purple Carrot sauces too. These pre-made sauces are original recipes designed to fit the foods they accompany.

What Makes It Special?

I like the options in Purple Carrot’s Grocery section as well. These extras include snacks, plant-based cheeses, soup, and proteins. Examples include Crab Cakes (without the crab), Snickerdoodle Cookies, and even a selection of beverages like lattes and kombucha. 

Purple Carrot doesn’t offer any customization options, but you don’t really need it. Each dish is well-balanced and was carefully designed to bring out the flavors and textures of the plants involved. Also, if you order meal kits, you can customize each recipe to your heart’s content since you’re the one cooking them.

Is It Good Value?

Purple Carrot starts at $11.00 per serving for the maximum number of meal kits. You can order for 2 or 4 people, and you can have 2 or 3 meal kits per person. 

If you order ready-made meals, you can order 6, 8, or 10 single-serving meals. It’s good to know that you can mix and meal kits in the same order after you sign up. Also, keep in mind that, with meal kits, the price per serving varies, while with ready-made meals it’s fixed.

2. Green Chef – Best Meal Kits for Organic Ingredients

Green Chef has a Plant Based meal plan, which includes meal kits with certified organic ingredients and global flavors that can be hard to come by. The service specializes in balanced dishes with high-quality ingredients free of GMOs, pesticides, or antibiotics.

What’s on the Menu?

The menu changes each week, and there are around 10 vegetarian and vegan options. If you’re OK with the occasional dairy ingredient (or don’t mind making at-home swaps using your pantry), Green Chef’s vegetarian meals are even better. 

There’s also a large section of the menu dedicated to keto, gluten-free, and high-protein meals. You can mix and match dishes from different menus, so Green Chef is a great choice for households with a mix of diets.

All the recipes come with step-by-step instructions, chef's tips, and photos. Plus, some of Green Chef’s ingredients arrive washed and prepped, while all its seasonings, sauces, and marinades are ready to use. We tested Green Chef and loved the easy-to-cook recipes, which take around 30 minutes to prepare and cook. 

What Makes It Special?

Green Chef was the 1st CCOF-Certified organic meal kit company on the market. This means that most of the fresh produce used in these recipes are organic. Whenever an organic option isn’t available, Green Chef will replace that product with a conventional one of the highest quality and include the information on the label.

I also like that the recipe cards and meal kit bags are color-coded. This way, it’s easier to organize the meals in your fridge and find everything when cooking.

Is It Good Value?

Admittedly, everything comes with a premium price tag. But, if you order for 4 or 6 people (maximum 4 meals each), you can bring the price down to $6.00 per serving. 

However, if you’re only ordering for 2 people (3 or 4 meals per person), you may find Green Chef’s pricing a bit steep. You’ll find some ready-to-heat breakfast oatmeal suitable for vegans in the add-ons menu, but you won’t be covered for every meal.

3. Eat Clean – Best for Plant-Based Ready-Made Meals

Eat Clean is a meal delivery service that offers fresh, ready-made meals made from premium proteins, vegetables, and complex carbohydrates. Plus, all the ingredients are natural and organic (whenever possible), and the meals are cooked with little to no sodium (300 to 500 mg).

What’s on the Menu?

The service caters to several specific diets, like paleo, keto, and plant-based, but it also has a more inclusive menu for people who don’t have special dietary needs. However, you can’t mix and match between meal plans, so you have to stick to 1 weekly menu. 

For vegan and vegetarian customers, Eat Clean’s menu includes recipes like Vegan Southwest Burger with Vegan Cheese with Red Potato or Vegetable Lasagna with Broccolini and sweetens the deal with Blueberry Vegan Pancakes with Fresh Fruit. See our tested Eat Clean review for more details on meals and plans.

What Makes It Special?

Since this is a ready-made meal delivery service, you can’t customize any meals. However, you can change your meal plan from 1 week to another, so you can have 1 week of traditional meals and 1 week of plant-based recipes. There’s also no way to mention allergens, and it’s difficult to identify the ones used in recipes since Eat Clean only offers information on ingredients and macronutrients.

Is It Good Value?

Eat Clean stands out as an excellent choice for single professionals and couples, offering the flexibility to order between 6 and 20 meals per week, each tailored for single servings. This adaptability makes it a convenient option for smaller households.

With prices beginning at just $4.30 per serving, Eat Clean positions itself as one of the most affordable meal delivery services for vegans. This pricing structure is especially appealing for those seeking budget-friendly, yet nutritious meal options.

4. Factor – Best Meals for Busy Vegans

Factor’s meals are prepared and ready to eat after just a few minutes in the microwave. This makes it a great option for busy individuals who often find themselves eating lunch at their desks or who want a quick and easy meal post-workout.

What’s on the Menu?

The core menu accommodates several diets and features well-balanced recipes inspired by international cuisine. Vegetarians and vegans have between 5 and 8 options each week, which isn’t as many as some of the services higher on my list. But the recipes are tasty, so if you’re not making a large order, Factor could still be a good choice. 

This does mean you might end up eating more than 1 serving of the recipes each week. However, the menu changes each week, so there will always be new recipes available. Tasty options include Tomato and Roasted Vegetable Risotto, Three Bean Vegan Chili, and Garlic & Herb Roasted Mushrooms. 

You can get even more out of your Factor subscription with the add-ons menu. There are smoothies, juices, snacks, desserts, and other items – many of which are plant-based.

What Makes It Special?

Everything on the menu is made using GMO-free ingredients that don’t include any artificial preservatives. And, according to our tested review of Factor, the service definitely passes the taste test. Each recipe is designed by a dietitian and cooked by a professional chef, so you’ll have restaurant-worthy meals in the convenience of your home.

I like that Factor doesn’t freeze its food. The meals arrive chilled and fresh at your door due to the ingenious packaging and insulation system. So, as long as you place everything in the fridge as soon as it arrives, your food will maintain its freshness and taste until it’s time to eat it. In addition, since everything comes in recycling microwave-safe containers, there’s no need for prep time or cleanup. Also, almost all the packaging materials are recyclable.

Is It Good Value?

This all makes Factor great for those who want to eat healthily and conveniently. However, you should also consider your budget since Factor can get pricey (especially if you only order the minimum 6 meals per week). 

To get Factor’s best-value box ($123.33), you’ll have to order 18 meals per week. This means you’ll need to consider clearing space in your fridge or sharing meals with a partner or friend.

5. HelloFresh – Best Vegan Meals for Families

HelloFresh has a good number of options for vegetarians and plant-based dieters. And, even if there’s no dedicated vegan menu (there’s a Veggie one), there are still plenty of recipes you can customize to fit your needs.

What’s on the Menu?

HelloFresh has a great variety of cuisine options on its menu. You can often find dishes influenced by Italian, Japanese, and African cuisines. Vegans can choose from Vegan Turkish-Spiced Chickpea Bowls, Vegan Thai Ginger Curry, and more.

Plus, HelloFresh is a meal kit service. This means you have plenty of customization options since you’ll cook the meals. For instance, a veggie meal kit like Coconut Curry with Chickpeas can be made vegan-friendly by leaving out or replacing some ingredients. In this case, you can replace the yogurt and butter with a vegan alternative. Plus, since we’re talking about small amounts (2 tablespoons of yogurt), you’re not wasting food.

HelloFresh has plenty of crowd-pleasing, family-friendly options, which makes it a great fit for vegans living with non-vegan families, partners, or roommates. And, even though there aren’t many vegan dishes on the weekly menu, you have permanent access to a wide range of vegan recipes in the Cookbook section.

What Makes It Special?

I think HelloFresh is among the most flexible meal delivery services due to its customization options. The HelloCustom feature allows you to swap proteins and sides to change the meals based on your preferences. While it doesn’t apply to the entire range of the menu, there are still plenty of options. These swaps often help make dishes more veggie-friendly.

HelloFresh recipes are also really easy to follow. When we tested this service, we found the recipe cards extremely helpful and well-designed, especially for beginners.

Unlike Purple Carrot, which only offers plant-based meals, HelloFresh has something for almost everyone. It’s also affordable, especially if you take advantage of a new customer discount.

Is It Good Value?

HelloFresh is quite budget-friendly. Its best-value box (6 meals for 4 people) is $119.74. On the other hand, if you only order the minimum (for 2 meals for 2 people), the price per serving can get a bit high without a discount.

6. Marley Spoon – Best for Culinary Variety and Taste

Marley Spoon is one of the most well-rounded meal kits delivery services out there. The company features an extensive menu that includes recipes inspired by international cuisines. And, if this isn’t enough, the meals are designed in collaboration with Martha Stewart, and Marley Spoon users have access to her Signature seasonings and sauces.

What’s on the Menu?

The recipes are easy to prepare and cook since most are ready in 6 steps or less and take about 30 minutes to put together. We tested Marley Spoon and found that these recipes are easy enough for amateur cooks who don’t spend much time in the kitchen.

The menu has about 5 or 6 recipes for vegans and vegetarians each week. This isn’t a huge amount of choice, however, you can take advantage of the flexibility of meal kits and customize the recipe by replacing ingredients like milk with a dairy-free alternative milk from your pantry. This strategy works best when you’re sharing the meals with a non-vegetarian partner or roommate.

Each week, there are 3 ready-made meals (to heat in the microwave or oven) and around 15 fast meal kits that take around 15 to 20 minutes to prepare and cook.

What Makes It Special?

The menu includes customizable recipes where you have the chance to upgrade either the protein or the side dish. However, the upgraded version comes with a charge since your options are to choose between high-quality ingredients and premium ingredients. You’ll see 1 or 2 recipes where meat can be swapped for a plant-based alternative.

Keep in mind that the produce doesn’t arrive prepped in any way. So, if you’re a slow cook (like myself), I recommend setting aside a couple of extra minutes. The ingredients are always fresh and arrive chilled in a well-insulated box. As a plus, Marley Spoon uses minimal packaging, and everything is recyclable or reusable.

Is It Good Value?

Marley Spoon strikes a balance between cost and quality. It's not the cheapest meal kit service, but it's also not hugely expensive. Particularly, the family plan (6 meals per person for 4 people) is priced at $4.99 per serving, offering affordability for larger orders.

The cost increases slightly with smaller orders, such as the minimum of 2 meals for 2 people. While these prices are higher than the bulk offerings, they may better suit vegan dieters as there’s fewer plant-based meals available each week, so you may be more likely to make smaller orders.

7. Trifecta – Best Chef-Curated Vegan Meals

Trifecta is a weight-loss and fitness-oriented meal delivery service that delivers prepared breakfasts, lunches, and dinners weekly. If you don’t fancy picking your own meals you can put meal planning on autopilot and allow pro chefs to decide what you eat. This way, there’ll be one less thing to stress about, which comes in handy when following a strict diet.

What’s on the Menu?

All the dishes are seasonal and prepared using fresh ingredients. Trifecta’s team of nutritionists and chefs works mostly with local family-run suppliers that employ sustainable practices. As a result, all the ingredients are harvested at their peak to ensure maximum quality and nutrition.

Trifecta supports practices that promote ecological balance, which is why, whenever possible, the meals include organic ingredients. Moreover, each meal plan is designed in collaboration with registered nutritionists to make sure the recipes follow the macronutrient and calorie requirements of the diet.

The Plant Based meal plan features nutrient-dense recipes that include vitamin-rich, high-protein ingredients such as veggies, fruits, grains, nuts, seeds, and plant-based meat and dairy alternatives. Each meal averages 15 g of plant-powered protein and the dishes are well-planned to fuel your body with energy for the day.

What Makes It Special?

Each subscription feels like you’re getting a personalized menu that fits your needs. Plus, for each meal plan, you can remove 2 ingredients from a list of allergens. This is a meal service that works with most allergies and dietary preferences, and you can find out more in our tested review.

I like that Trifecta is actively looking to improve its packaging system and trying to achieve fully biodegradable packaging. For now, there are still areas that don’t accept the plastic trays and plastic film for recycling, but the rest of the packaging materials, such as the cardboard box and the insulation lining, are fully recyclable.

Trifecta also has an A la Carte system where you can build a personalized menu. You can purchase proteins, side dishes, and ready-made meals as you see fit. However, the veggie-forward options are a bit limited.

Is It Good Value?

The pricing is quite steep at $13.79 per serving, but Trifecta promises nothing less than high-quality, nutrient-dense ingredients. Plus, the Plant Based meal plan is a bit cheaper since there’s no meat included. If you choose a meal plan, you can order between 5 and 14 entrées per delivery, with the option to add 7 breakfasts.

Tips for Choosing the Best Vegan Meal Delivery Services

These are some of the criteria I considered when compiling my list of plant-based meal delivery services.

• Consider vegan variety: For those fully committed to a vegan lifestyle, selecting a service like Purple Carrot, which specializes in plant-based meals, ensures a diverse range of options. If you're more focused on reducing animal products rather than eliminating them, mainstream services with vegan plans or a selection of plant-based dishes can suffice.
• Seek balanced nutrition: It's essential that meal services provide dishes with a balanced nutritional profile, offering vital nutrients like B12, iron, calcium, and protein. Be wary of services that rely heavily on processed meat substitutes, as these can sometimes contain high levels of sugar, salt, and unhealthy fats. Always review the nutritional information to make an informed choice.
• Match your lifestyle: Consider how meal services fit with your daily routine. If your schedule is typically hectic, prepared meals like Factor’s can be a time-saving solution. For those who enjoy cooking and wish to explore new recipes, DIY meal kits from companies like Green Chef offer a more hands-on culinary experience.
• Accommodate additional dietary needs: Ensure the meal service caters to any specific dietary needs you have. Many vegan services also provide options that are gluten-free, nut-free, and soy-free, catering to a wider range of dietary restrictions and preferences.
