My Honest SunBasket Review
I seriously get so sick of meal planning every week especially because our lives are so crazy and we usually end up wasting meals, so I’ve tried a ton of meal services to fix this. There are some that are great and some that are less great, some that are complicated and require a ton of prep time and cleanup and some that are super simple. I tried SunBasket recently and I was pleasantly surprised that it was a little bit of everything that I loved in every other meal delivery service, plus it’s all organic! You can get $60 off your SunBasket: $40 off your first one and $20 off your second…by clicking here.
The way the meals work around our household is that we (and by “we”, I mean “I”) plan our week’s meals on Sunday and I make a super long grocery list to go and pick up Sunday afternoon. I try to use the same 2-3 types of meats and vegetables every week to avoid having to buy a ton of stuff. Then usually by Wednesday, we have either run out of our veggies, or we don’t want to eat meat that’s been in the fridge for three days (we are super crazy about fresh meats and fish).
Now with Sun Basket’s Wednesday deliveries, I only have to plan for 3 days’ worth of dinners on Sunday and we never let food go bad in the fridge! This is a life saver…seriously. I never have to worry about the ingredients, as I can be confident that it’s all great quality, sustainably sourced organic and non-GMO from the best farms. We can’t even say that about our local grocery store! Seriously, buying food nowadays is scary…we can never know where it really comes from and how it’s sourced.
All of the ingredients in the Sun Basket come previously measured out and in their own recipe’s bag…the only thing you need to do when you’re ready to cook is pull out the bag and read the 30-minute recipe (aka NO shopping, looking up recipes, or measuring). Yeah, I’m just as mindblown as you are. Not to mention that all of the recipes are created by award winning chefs (one that used to be head chef of the Slanted Door in SF…I’ve always loved that place!)
For our first Sun Basket, we made quinoa and white bean burgers. They were SO yum. The whole meal was 540 calories which was a little heavy for a lunch, so I just had mine without the bun since it came with sweet potato fries and was still stuffed!
There are a lot of options you can choose from – from gluten free to vegan. You can even choose the amount of food in your boxes – for 2 or 4 people (we might try 4 for next time because I like to cook extras for dinner to save for lunch the next day), or the family plan.
