Designed to keep those who exercise well fuelled, the options at Natural Fitness Food are bursting with protein and carbs. That doesn’t mean flavour is an afterthought. In their meal plans you’ll find ginger and chilli-marinated tofu with crunchy peanut rice and a silky miso sauce, or peri peri spiced halloumi with crunchy slaw and paprika yoghurt. Watch out for their delicious vegan snacks too, including the creamy high-protein twist on a Snickers. 

Cost?

From £20 a day for two main meals and two snacks, breakfasts or shakes.

Much like their in-house offerings, The Detox Kitchen’s home delivery meals are wholesome and super tasty. The vegan meal plan is available in two options: the vegan cleanse and the vegan maintain (and neither containing wheat, dairy or refined sugar). But with hearty dishes like the sweet potato enchilada and panang curry, there’s little chance of you feeling like you are missing out. 

The menu changes on a weekly basis, and each day consists of a juice, three meals, one snack, an after-dinner pudding – and an evening drink on the vegan maintain plan.

Cost? 

There’s a minimum three-day order.

Vegan cleanse: £31.45 to £37 per day

Vegan maintain: £34 to £40 per day

If you are running low on food inspiration, then allplants meal delivery service offers more than 30 vegan meal options to remedy that.

Options range from a rigatoni carbonara to vegan cottage pie, and you can specify your dietary requirements, spice level, and even if you want meals that work best in the oven or, as Nigella would say, the micro-wavé.

£40.50 for 6 meals (designed for one person)

£59.88 for 12 meals (designed for two people)

The PEP Kitchen offers chef-made dishes that are designed to “revolutionise the ready meal,” and they do just that from their thoughtful meal bundles to their carbon neutral delivery service.

ByRuby offers meal deliveries for every type of eater from gluten-free to vegetarian. The tasty meals are available in portions for one or two people. The gourmet meal options include hearty meals such as a cauliflower korma, miso ramen with rice noodles and tofu and comforting macaroni cheese. 

Aside from the delicious meals, byRuby is seriously dedicated to sustainable packaging. Their meals are delivered in wool-lined boxes that are recyclable, compostable and biodegradable. According to the website, you can even use the wool to: “stuff cushions, make homemade draught excluders or enrich your soil” or send them back to make sure they don’t end up in the bin. Bonus points for the really gorgeous packaging which makes this feel like a real treat. 

Cost?

Meals range from £6.50 to £12 for double portion and bundles range from the £29 mark to £60+. 

The Cook Kitchen prepares seriously tasty meal bundles that consist of eight meals for one, or seven meals for two people. The joy of Cook Kitchen is sheer variety. There are thoughtful care boxes (for new parents etc), boxes for couples and clever kits for entertaining, for students, healthy options, kids menus – it’s a pretty extensive offering. And with meals like shakshuka, moussaka, lasagne and pies, it’s pretty tasty too. 

Note: the company doesn’t have separate areas to prepare vegan and non-vegan meals, so maybe a better option for less-strict vegans.

Cost?

£35.75 for 8 meals (for one person), £56.50 for 7 meals (for two people).
