Freshly isn’t really a tableware — it’s more like a microwaveable dinner. No need to prepare in advance. Each serving comes in its own plastic container, ready for you to microwave and eat. It’s like a slightly more refreshing version of the meal you’ll be served in first class on a transatlantic flight.
While you do have to pay a bit for the convenience, this really works great as a light lunch or dinner option. One caveat is that some meals fall a bit short in servings, although you can always check the calories on these if you’d rather go for cherries for more filling options (or do the opposite and choose cherries). a low calorie meal).
If we didn’t live in a city where the takeout options were wide and delicious, it would have been even better. The food is pretty fresh and the dishes are a little more interesting than you’d normally get in the aisle fridge: Recent menu choices include sesame ginger chicken and noodles, a three-nut harvest bowl, plus other dishes. comfort foods like mac and cheese, mashed potatoes and vegetarian shepherd’s pie. Speaking of which, there aren’t many great vegetarian options here, but if you’re tempted by the convenience of ready-to-eat, no-prep meals, filter by the “vegetarian” meal option. drugs”.
Everything is individually portioned, so you can choose exactly how many meals you want each week. When you’re ready to heat up and serve, the microwave instructions are extremely precise (no burned blades!). Tables for one, please.
Price: Freshly is priced per prepared meal — meals start at $9 and you can buy up to 12 meals per week.
