Unlike most meal kit subscriptions, Sun Basket has lots of healthy menus to choose from, including:
- Mediterranean
- Paleo
- Quick & Easy
- Lean and Clean
- Gluten-Free*
- Vegetarian
- Vegan
- Pescatarean
- Diabetes-friendly
- And Chef’s Choice
This can make it easier for you to stick with one of these eating plans, helping you save the time you would have spent planning meals, make a shopping list, and going to the grocery store.
Another unique feature is Sun Basket allows you to mix and match meals from these menus in each of your orders. So you could have a paleo meal, a vegan meal, and a gluten free meal all in the same week.
Health Information
When it comes to health, Sun Basket is a USDA-certified organic handler, and most of their produce is organic. That’s uncommon for a meal kit service.
Their meats and poultry are always antibiotic and hormone-free. Lamb and turkey are pasture-raised. And on some recipes, Sun Basket even gives you the option to order grass fed, grass finished beef.
All of Sun Basket’s seafood is wild-caught (never farmed) and always recommended as Best Choice or Good Alternative by the Monterey Bay Aquarium Seafood Watch® program.
Sustainability Information
When it comes to sustainability, Sun Basket’s packaging is 100% recyclable and compostable.
Since the ingredients for the recipes come pre-portioned, the service can also help you reduce food waste in your home.
And the company even gives back to communities through Feeding America and local food banks, as well as employee programs.
Pricing
Sun Basket’s meal prices range from $10.99 — $11.99 per serving. Shipping is $6.99 per box.
You can skip deliveries when you’re out of town and pause or cancel your subscription anytime before the weekly cutoff.
Sun Basket offers a happiness guarantee on their product, another uncommon feature, so you can get your money back if you decide it’s not for you.
We hope this Sun Basket review has helped you decide if the service is right for you.
