Veestro

As scientific studies continue to show the health and environmental benefits of eating less meat and dairy, and increasing our intake of grains, legumes, and vegetables, more people are opting to go the vegan route at least part of the time.

That's where Veestro comes in. With a box of 10, 20 or 30 frozen vegan meals delivered right to your door, it makes going vegan nearly effortless. But at a minimum of $9.90 each, they're far more expensive than a frozen meal from the supermarket.

How It Works: Prepared from meals in bulk

Veestro offers subscriptions of 10, 20 or 30 fully prepared frozen meals. The meals serve one person each and just need to be reheated before serving. Subscriptions can be changed or canceled at any time.

Customers can choose to select their meals themselves with the A La Carte Plan, or let the company choose for them with the Chef's Choice Plan. With Chef's Choice, you can still slightly customize your options by choosing the Customer Favorites, High-Protein or Gluten-Free menus.

There's also a Weight Loss Plan that provides three meals per day for either five or seven days. The meals are meant to average 1,200 total calories per day and there's a gluten-free option.

What We Like

  • No cooking required
  • Large selection over meals (over 50)
  • Weight-loss plan available

What We Don't Like

  • Expensive
  • Not creative
  • Lacking in vegetables
  • Pretty bland in flavor
  • It's not possible to choose a delivery date

Veestro's frozen meals fill a niche for those who want to eat vegan but don't have the time, skills or inclination to cook.

Veestro vs. Fresh N' Lean

Fresh N' Lean is another prepared meal delivery service that requires no cooking. The company offers meat-heavy plans in addition to its two vegan plans, so that may be a concern to some customers who want their food prepared in a 100 percent vegan facility.

Fresh N' Lean offers refrigerated instead of frozen meals for $8.40 per meal compared to Veestro's lowest price of $9.90. And Fresh N' Lean has add-ons like vegetable side dishes and snacks. Fresh N' Lean has far fewer meal choices — just 13 entrees plus three oatmeals and granola for the breakfast options. All of the entrees tend to be variations on grain and veggie bowls rather than composed entrees. In that sense, Veestro's meals seem much more interesting.
