Purple Carrot review

Purple Carrot is the only service here with a fully plant-based menu, which makes it the simplest choice for vegans. Each week it adds options with 30+ grams of protein, 10+ grams of fiber and under 600 calories, and the menu spans recipe kits, ready-to-eat meals, frozen meals, grab-and-go breakfasts and 4 serving family bakes. Protein add-ons help when a recipe needs to be more filling. You can browse the full menu before signing up, skip any week and cancel anytime, and the site says it has delivered plant-based meals for more than 10 years. The site does not list a starting price without building an order, so our USD price check is pending. Households that eat meat several nights a week will find Green Chef's plant-based menu or HelloFresh's Veggie plan easier to combine with other meals.
