Meal kits are an easier way to get dinner on the table, but sometimes it can feel like they cost as much as getting takeout. Enter EveryPlate, which is convenient and cost-effective for busy parents.

EveryPlate is a meal kit service that sends ingredients and recipes for meals you select based on your family’s preferences. Each week, EveryPlate offers 30 meals to choose from, including several “Family Fave” and “Quick and Easy” options. And right now, EveryPlate is offering first-time members up to 70% off their first order.

Several members of the What to Expect community recommend EveryPlate, noting that the subscription is affordable (especially compared to other meal kits) and the menus are tasty. One member even wrote, “we use EveryPlate [and] every meal we’ve had so far has been delicious.” But flavorful meals aren’t the only thing that make EveryPlate a good meal kit service. Some other standout elements include:

  • Simple recipes with six steps or less, cutting down on cooking time
  • Pre-portioned ingredients, reducing food waste
  • Big batch recipes provide you with plenty of leftovers to eat during the week

But, again, what makes EveryPlate a particularly good option for parents is that it offers meals that are deemed “Family Fave” and “Quick and Easy.” EveryPlate ensures that these “kid-approved dinners” are super simple to make: Very little prep-work, easy cooking instructions and minimal cleanup. (And really, the only thing better than a quick, family-friendly dinner is one that doesn’t make a mess of your kitchen.)

The exact cost of an EveryPlate subscription will vary based on how many people you want to serve (two to six) and how many meals per person (three to six) you want to order for the week. You can pay as little as $38.94 a week or as much as $179.64 a week, with each person’s meal averaging about $5.37. Given how hard it is to make a meal that’s $5 per serving, even if you meal plan on your own, that’s pretty impressive.

If you’re on the fence, you can sign up today and receive up to 70% off your first EveryPlate box. If you decide to stick with it, you can pay $1 more to receive a steak in each future box. That’s a little extra protein in each meal, or a “treat yourself” dinner once the kids are in bed. Learn more about this deal and the meal kits at EveryPlate.com.
