Factor
Ready To Heat Meals
If you're looking for a ready to heat option that tastes delicious...
Go with Factor. While every meal kit speaks to "convenience" as a key value point, Factor's meals can be reheated in a matter of minutes, taking even the burden of prep work away. These meals arrive fresh, never frozen, and chef-prepared for the maximum nutritional impact. We love that heating up dishes like their Vegan Mushroom Marsala and Chimichurri Filet Mignon and Shrimp requires no heavy lifting, and we've been pleasantly surprised by how delicious they taste.

Hello Fresh
America's #1 Meal Kit
Learn to cook from the most recognizable meal kit in America...
HelloFresh boasts up to 60(!) meals available for selection every week, and then teaches you step-by-step how to make them (in fact, several of our editors credit Hello Fresh with teaching them how to cook). Start by zeroing in on your priorities, with menus broken down into six sub-categories: Meat & Veggies, Veggie, Family Friendly, Fit & Wholesome, Quick & Easy, and Pescatarian. Pick your preference and prepare to be blown away. Our editors were skeptical (how could a brand possibly live up to so much hype), but dishes like The Island Breeze Chicken Cutlets and Mushroom Ravioli convinced us that HelloFresh is ubiquitous for a reason.

*1 free breakfast item per box with active subscription, and 10 free meals applied as a discount across 7 boxes, new subscribers only, varies by plan.

Ready To Heat Meals
America's #1 Meal Kit
In partnership with HelloFresh. Editor’s Note: We only select and work with partners that meet our quality standards, so you can rest assured we only endorse products we believe in.
We knew there were a lot of meal kits out there, but we honestly didn’t realize just how many have popped up over the past few years until one of our editors asked the rest of our team if they’d ever tried one — and had a favorite. Of course, this sparked a healthy debate about the value of meal kits, which ones are worth it, and which actually taste good (as it turns out, some are way better than others). We decided this would make a really great article, so we ordered 13 different meal kits and got to work.
As we worked our way through a multitude of different kinds (frozen, fresh, reheatable, prep-yourself, affordable, clean, etc.), two favorites stood out for their taste, ingredients, affordability, and convenience. Meet them here…

As it turns out, eating well and saving time can go hand in hand. Many of our editors have shared that they opt for Factor as their go-to for quick mid-work meals, and Hello Fresh is a fun dinnertime activity. Both are currently running amazing offers — why not give them a go?!
