I tried one of Purple Carrot's frozen meals from a grocery store, NOT their meal kit delivery service. The portion was a little smaller than I was expecting but tasted good. They have vegan and gluten free options. Their frozen meals are served in a bowl made from plant-based fiber. I would be interested in trying their other frozen meal options.
I’ve been using Purple Carrot for their prepared meals because I don’t have a lot of confidence in the kitchen but wanted to improve my cooking skills while also changing up the menu. I really love how easy the recipes are to follow & the variety of meals that there are to choose from!
Let me start by saying I'm not a vegetarian and I don't really like these recipes-in-a-box subscriptions (why pay extra for food and then also do the labor of cooking it??) -- THAT BEING SAID, I fucking love Purple Carrot and would be earnestly sad if we had to cancel our subscription. I found out about them because my husband was interviewing for a job so we bought a short-term subscription to test. He didn't get the job, but once he did get a job this subscription was the first thing we paid for. I'm not a chef nor a foodie and all the recipes are still quite easy for me to follow! The most complicated recipes involve a food processor, but otherwise everything can be done with your regular old kitchen supplies. Every recipe is divine, even ones where you have no idea what any of the ingredients are. Sandwiches to pastas to salads to soups to curries to patties... there's a ton of variety, and we've only seen a few repeats of recipes over 2 years. We also sometimes (read: kinda often...) mess up the steps in the recipe, and everything still always comes out delicious, and visually beautiful to boot! It's super easy to skip boxes (so we only get a box once every 2 weeks) and I've never received a rotten or otherwise damaged box or ingredients. I don't have much experience with their customer service but based on product alone I'm a huuuuuge fan and very happy with my experience using Purple Carrot.
Feedback
Not sure how this would be fixed, but it would be great to have fewer plastic baggies involved in the recipes!
This is my favorite meal kit. Being vegan/vegetarian I thought the taste wouldn’t be great. I was so wrong. These meals are for sure the most elevated of the meal kits I have tried. A lot of other companies only give you different variations of the same blah meals. A lot of purple carrots meals were restaurant quality.
