Green Chef
Green Chef launched in Boulder, Colorado in 2014 and now sits inside the HelloFresh group. For gluten-free households the key fact is the facility: boxes are packed in a certified gluten-free kitchen, so wheat is not sharing the room with the produce. Each box holds pre-portioned ingredients, sauces in small pots and a photo recipe card. Plans cover keto, high protein, Mediterranean, plant-based and gluten free, and recipes can be mixed inside one order. Most dinners take about half an hour at the stove.
Fits people who like cooking but hate planning menus and pushing a cart. Portions are honest, waste is low, and the produce is largely organic. Not the pick for anyone who wants zero prep, and the price per serving runs above the cheap kits, with shipping charged separately. Recipes assume basic pantry staples such as oil, salt and pepper at home.
