LifeChef delivers pre-made, health-conscious meals directly to customers’ doors. Our favorite aspect of LifeChef is menu customization. In addition to tailored-made menu recommendations by LifeChef nutritionists, LifeChef customers can mix and match proteins, sides, and extras of each meal to make every entree unique. Based in the East Coast, LifeChef is available in seven select U.S. states as well as Washington, D.C.
If you care about convenience and customizability, LifeChef is the meal delivery kit for you.
LifeChef available is in the following U.S. states and territories:
LifeChef’s philosophy is simple: everyone deserves delicious, convenient, health-focused meals delivered right to their door. By uniting chefs, nutritionists, and doctors, the LifeChef team developed a rotating menu that is based on the tastes people are looking for.
No matter your diet preferences and ingredient restrictions, LifeChef offers restaurant-quality, fully-customizable meals delivered right to your door.
New customers start by selecting the number of ready-to-eat meals they’d like for their upcoming shipment. You can choose between four and eighteen meals to receive per shipment.
After selecting the number of meals, new customers take a short, dietitian-designed nutrition questionnaire. You’ll be asked to describe the kinds of foods you like and don’t like, mark down any diets you follow, and list any dietary restrictions you may have.
LifeChef nutritionists and chefs then use your responses to build a customized menu for your first delivery. As you build out your order, you have the option to ignore these recommendations and select any meals that you like.
Although all meal delivery companies allow you to customize your shipment based on your dietary needs and preferences, LifeChef takes it a step further by designing their meals around a “component” system. Components are the proteins, sides, and extras that form your meals.
LifeChef encourages customers to swap these components to build unique meals. If you order the beef stroganoff, roasted carrots, and spaghetti squash meal, you can swap any of these core components to a different option; maybe you’d prefer to swap beef for salmon, or squash for broccoli. The choice is always up to you!
After confirming your meal choices, you simply add your shipping information and pay.
Meal prices vary by the menu item. On average, a six-meal delivery will cost about $75 before shipping. Shipping costs an additional $8.99 on average.
For each new weekly shipment, customers can add or subtract the total number of meals they’d like delivered, can customize their meal selections, and can skip ordering for the week altogether.
LifeChef deliveries arrive directly to your door chilled and insulated, meaning the meals inside will stay fresh for a few hours after arriving. Meals should be transferred to the refrigerator on the day of delivery.
LifeChef meals last up to seven days in the refrigerator.
We recommend LifeChef meals to anyone looking for a convenient, customizable solution to meal times. LifeChef’s component customization makes every meal uniquely delicious. Plus, LifeChef’s pre-made model is hard to beat: to make dinner, all you have to do is microwave your meal for two minutes and you’re ready to chow.
