Love it.
This is by far the best high protein meal. It doesn’t even feel like your eating healthier.

The best on the market!
The best meal prep hack on the market! I’ve tried other meal prep companies that deliver to your door but none of them taste as delicious as this! The price point is perfect too! It’s almost too good to be true but it is! Will be recommending these meals to everyone who is looking for a nutritious macros loving meal!

The Preface: I was really excited to try this. So sure that I would love it, I bought two of the larger-sized meals (both Taco Mac & Cheese) for just the two of us for dinner, plus a healthy-sized salad. The Good: Pasta was cooked fairly well to a desirable tenderness. The Bad: We ended up eating about half of just one of the trays between the both of us. For me, I felt like it was over-spiced & over-seasoned. Now, let me just say that I love both spices and seasonings (and I am usually all for an abundance of both at each stage of preparing and cooking the meal. My all time favorite style of cooking is hands down easily Cajan / Creol. To me, this was a different type of heavy-handed kitchen craft. There's a disconnect between the spice and flavor profile and the expectation of what the food was imagined to have tasted like... and this was not a good kind of surprise. The heat and flavor didn't match any preconceived notions and did not connect with the meal even if I kept an open mind and pushed any bias out of my mind. There was so much spice & seasoning, it became the meal itself, while the Mac and cheese were demoted to a supporting role at best. I also found it lacking in cheesy yummy-ness. While I'm fairly certain there was some kind of cheese in there (per the box), I couldn't tell by taste or texture. The Verdict: This is definitely something that I will skipping over next time.

Taco Tuesday!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was such a fun change from my usual high-protein meals! The taco seasoning has just the right amount of flavor, the cheese sauce is creamy, and everything comes together really well. It’s filling, packed with protein, and doesn’t taste like your average frozen meal. Perfect for busy days when I want something quick that’s still satisfying.
