Ready-to-cook meals 101: How to Make Dinner a No-Brainer
Do you love a home cooked meal, but not the planning, shopping, measuring and chopping? If yes, our ready-to-cook meal subscription was made for you.
Here’s everything you need to know before you hit that final “sign up” button.
Why Fresh Prep?
Fresh Prep is designed to make home cooking easy, tasty, and sustainable, so you get the satisfaction of a homemade meal, without the usual prep or clean-up chaos.
What’s on the menu?
Each week, you’ll find 18+ fresh recipes featuring classics and globally inspired dishes. With something for everyone, including meat & seafood, vegetarian, vegan, pescatarian, and family-friendly options.
We’ve got your covered with:
• Flexible and commitment-free
Order when it suits you. Skip weeks or pause your subscription anytime—no calls, no guilt.
• To your Door
meals arrive weekly right where you want them with icepacks to keep your food cool for up to 4 hours
• Low-waste, reusable packaging
We’re serious about sustainability. Our kits come in recyclable containers or reusable Zero Waste Kits that you return.
• You cook, we prep
You get pre-chopped ingredients and step-by-step recipe cards—no food waste, no measuring, no guesswork.
• Fully flexible orders:
Build your order the way you like it: add snacks, sides, sauces, or even a few Ready-to-Eat meals to keep things flexible.
How it works
Meals Chosen for You (Unless You Say Otherwise):
Each week, we’ll preselect a variety of ready-to-cook meals for you—prepped ingredients, clear instructions, no guesswork. Want to cook something else? You can easily swap out meals before Wednesday at 11:59 p.m. It’s your kitchen, your call. We’re just here to make it easy.
Billing Happens Right After Cutoff:
Once the clock strikes midnight on Wednesday, your payment is processed automatically. This confirms your order and gets your meals ready for delivery.
Meals Delivered to Your Door:
Expect your order to arrive at your doorstep on your scheduled delivery day, packed in reusable cooler bags with ice packs to keep everything fresh and chilled.
Return Your Cooler Bags & Reusables:
Help us keep packaging waste low by returning your cooler bags, ice packs, and rinsed plastic recycling. Just leave them outside your door on your next delivery day or schedule a free pickup from your account settings if you’re taking a break.
How billing works
For your first order: Your first order is billed when you sign up based on the price of the meal plan you choose.
The amount charged is kept as a pre-payment for your first delivery – You don’t have to order right away and you can still customize your first order.
Future orders:
Each week you have until Wednesday night at midnight to choose your meals or skip the week. At midnight, we bill your credit card and then get to work prepping your order for the next week.
