Every chef-prepared entrée has a full nutritional breakdown on the site, so you can get even further insights into your meals when placing your order. Plus, the brand's entire lineup is gluten-free, so those with celiac won't need to worry about cross-contamination.

If you love cooking but hate spending time at the grocery store, Sunbasket's meal kits can give you the best of both worlds. While the menu is not strictly Whole30-approved, you can use the paleo filter to find recipes with a similar set of guidelines (i.e., no dairy, grains, or sugar).
The details

Of course, finding Whole30-safe meals will take a bit of extra legwork. For example, you'll still find tofu and some legumes in the Sunbasket paleo rotation. But if you're well versed in the rules, finding satisfying meals shouldn't be an issue—especially when you know they'll get delivered to your door weekly. And don't fret if you make a mistake when ordering; it's easy to ditch an ingredient when preparing your meal to ensure you stick to the guidelines. Each recipe also features an in-depth rundown of ingredients to ensure you have plenty of time to vet.
Example meals:
- Lettuce-wrapped turkey burgers with spicy chraime carrot salad
- Chicken lamb lettuce cups with carrots and fresh mint
- Pork and stone fruit salad with harissa-roasted sweet potato
Sustainability & quality: Every recipe features 99% organic ingredients—and Sunbasket always lets you know when it needs to swap in foods that aren't. This commitment to green continues with packing that's primarily curbside recyclable sans the plastic bags used for some proportioned ingredients.
Cost: From $12 per serving

How we tested & selected the best Whole30 meal delivery services
To find the best Whole30 meal delivery services, we evaluated each option in terms of its meal variety, customization options, ingredient quality, price, and sustainability. Below, find a bit more detail on our criteria.
- Variety: We want to keep your taste buds excited, so we searched for brands with at least four Whole30-safe meals available each week.
- Dietary needs: There's no denying Whole30 is pretty strict, but it's still important to account for each individual's unique allergy or dietary needs within the eating plan, too.
- Sustainability: Meal boxes get a bad rep for waste, so we searched for the companies trying to change that notion with sustainability standards.
- Price: Every food budget is different, so we looked for a range of options to suit different allowances.
Once we narrowed down the options, our team tested each service to make sure the meals passed our standards on taste. We also ran the menus by a registered dietician for her perspective on their nutritional breakdown.

Types of Whole30-approved meal plans
Only a handful of meal delivery services are specifically Whole30-approved; however, selecting a paleo meal delivery service often checks many of the same boxes. These curated options focus on lean meats and veggies while skipping grains, legumes, and dairy.
When opting for a meal kit, you'll have the flexibility to ditch any ingredients that don't meet Whole30 guidelines. However, premade or frozen meals will require extra vetting, as it's often difficult (or even impossible) to remove unwanted ingredients from these options. Remember: If you mess up on Whole30, you're supposed to completely start over.
The takeaway
Partaking in Whole30 doesn't have to be an intimidating experience. In fact, our testers say these meal delivery services would make sticking to the diet significantly simpler.
Whether you want fully prepared meals from our top pick, Trifecta Nutrition, or you'd rather master your culinary skills with a meal kit, there's something for everyone on our list.
