Purple Carrots 100% plant-based meal kits are filling and fun to cook

100% plant-based and also 100% tasty? It’s true — after cooking and eating Purple Carrot’s vegan meal kit offerings a few times over four years, we can safely conclude that the recipes, ingredients and company stand up to our testing and then some.I’ve personally been testing all the meal kit companies we could find for almost five years, from placing the orders and making accounts to washing countless dishes and everything in between.

From vegetarian and vegan kits to ready-to-eat and grocery delivery, there is a kit out there for everyone — and plenty for me! Purple Carrot is quite simple to set up.The meal kit company offers the traditional weekly menu with corresponding plans but has also introduced ready-to-eat meals, frozen meals sold in your local grocery store, and even an online market with an array of other plant-based brands to shop.

The brand offers vegan cuisine and vegan cuisine only, so if this is your diet, you are in luck! However, even if you do choose to partake in meat and fish like I do, Purple Carrot can serve as a great way to introduce a few plant-based options into your weekly rotation.The traditional meal kits span breakfast, lunch and dinner and also come in either two or four-person serving sizes.

Party of one? When testing these meals, I saved the second portion of the two-person meals for lunch, and most of all the recipes I tried reheated well.Make sure to pay attention to your delivery window when planning meals, as once you place your order, your box will arrive on a Saturday, Monday, Tuesday, or Wednesday, depending on your location.

You can also pause your account or skip deliveries, should you be out of town.Like the menu of meals, Purple Carrot varies in price.
