How does HelloFresh work?

One reason we love HelloFresh is that it’s super user-friendly. Once you sign up for 60% off your first box plus 25% off for the next two months, you choose the plan that is right for you. You can pick plans to serve between two and four people, but if you are more than four, you can easily add a fifth and sixth meal to each box.

Once you have chosen the number of portions, select which dishes you’d like (but don’t worry, you can change them up to four days before the delivery date) from a combination of mostly meat, veggie, family, quick-cook, calorie smart and pescatarian recipes.

Your HelloFresh subscription is managed by you via the app or website, which puts you in control of any changes. You’ll then receive a delivery each week, with fresh ingredients pre-portioned into the correct amounts, and a recipe card.

What meals do HelloFresh have?

The beauty of HelloFresh is the choice of recipes available. This means that you can tailor your box to your needs that week – whether you have kids who are on the picky side, or are trying to incorporate more vegetables into your diet, HelloFresh has it all.

If you’re looking to save time with HelloFresh, you can also choose recipes that take as little as 20 minutes to make, so when you need something quick to whip up after work or the kids are ravenous after football practice, you can keep everyone happy.

If you don’t have time to choose your meals, that’s ok too – simply tell HelloFresh any dietary requirements and it will do the menu selection for you.

HelloFresh vegetarian recipes

Many of us are making changes to the way we eat, including cutting down on meat and fish. If you are too, HelloFresh has a large number of vegetarian recipes to choose from.

Welcome in the warmer months with honey and lime-glazed halloumi burgers with lightly spiced peri peri potato wedges and a fresh avocado salsa on the side. Sundried tomato risotto is a filling dish bursting with Mediterranean flavours, served with asparagus and roasted baby plum tomatoes. If you’re looking for something more comforting, look no further than the two cheese ratatouille pasta bake with roasted aubergine and peppers.

HelloFresh plant-based recipes

If it has previously felt a bit daunting, trying recipes from HelloFresh is a good way to dip your toe into plant-based cooking. There are delicious recipes inspired by cuisines from around the world, which provide a great way to incorporate a wide variety of vegetables into your diet.

Enjoy Thai massaman rice with roasted aubergine and chestnut mushrooms, which uses peanut butter and coconut milk to bring a rich creaminess to the dish. Inspired by Spanish cooking, samphire paella with tomatoes, peppers and black olives makes the most of one of the best (in our opinion, anyway) vegetables of the summer — samphire, which grows on the British coast.

Does HelloFresh reduce food waste?

The simple answer to this is yes, HelloFresh does reduce food waste. In fact, one of the reasons HelloFresh was founded was to help reduce the food that gets wasted in our homes.

It can be easy to buy too much when doing a food shop, or to forget what you’ve got in the fridge while trying to cook meals with a busy schedule. HelloFresh helps to reduce food waste in the home because you only get exactly what you need for a recipe — no more racking your brain for ways to use up half a kilo of cheese that you bought for one sandwich.

But that’s not all. HelloFresh also helps to reduce food waste in the production phase before the food reaches our homes, too. Because customers are ordering meals in advance, HelloFresh can order only what is needed from suppliers, which not only reduces inventory costs, but also limits waste within the supply chain.

Is it hard to cancel HelloFresh?

HelloFresh customers are in charge of their own subscriptions. If you’re heading on holiday or have plans to eat out a number of times in one week, you can pause your HelloFresh subscription at any time without being charged. You can also unpause it whenever you’re ready and get back on track with your meal deliveries.
