Eat Healthy Foods While Staying Home With Help From These Companies

Following
This article is more than 4 years old.

While spending more time cooking at home can have its advantages, at our house, my teenage boys have been making lemon squares, homemade scones and butter-rich roti. The lines at our local grocery stores have topped 45 minutes and the thought of shopping for and cooking healthy meals can be overwhelming. Several companies have come the rescue with nutritious and delicious options delivered right to your door (contact-free) that require nothing more than a quick trip to the microwave. This approach lowers stress, can boost immunity and make meal-time a reprieve instead of a chore.

Sakara

Sakara has created one of the healthiest options around with meals that are organic, plant-based, gluten-free, dairy-free and contain no refined sugar. The food is artfully created and always tastes great. Breakfast might include chia and coconut protein waffles or a pumpkin scone. Lunch can be wild rice and miso salad or gluten-free pasta pesto and an upcoming dinner features a protein power plate enriched with lentils and roasted cauliflower. Meals plans are supplemented with detox teas and you can always add an immunity boosting snack bar or a chocolate treat. Sakara delivers nationwide and is offering a 20% discount for the next 4 weeks. (sakara.com)

Provenance Meals

This company provides organic, nutrient-dense meals with contact-less delivery. You can choose from a menu of organic produce, grass-fed meat, pastured chicken and eggs, and wild seafood, all developed by an in-house team of nutrition and wellness experts. A typical day may include a Spanish frittata for breakfast, lemongrass chicken soup for lunch and tandoori salmon with Swiss chard and carrots or pomegranate steak with saffron rice for dinner. Tiger nut cookies make a great snack and you can also order a family size bag of delicious grain-free granola or curry roasted nuts. Provenance Meals can be ordered in New York City and a special 20% off discount is currently available. (provenancemeals.com).

To keep its customers healthy while they stay home, Juice Press has announced a new delivery service. You can order your favorite soups and salads in family-friendly sizes, but also an assortment of delicious organic produce and key staples. Juice Press will deliver almost any organic fruit and vegetable you can think of, including: carrots, blackberries, mushrooms, kale, peppers and zucchini. You can also stock up on their immunity-boosting juices and fill your pantry with organic almond butter, whole-wheat bread, kale chips, beans and jam.
