Best Value

Marley Spoon was the only meal kit where that had tasty food and we consistently had leftovers for lunch.

About 10 recipes to choose from per week — a few more than most kits reviewed.
Box to table within 30 minutes.
Large portions — the most of any meal kit we reviewed.
If you order 4 meals per week, it’s cheaper than many of the other plans.

The ingredients are separated in paper bags by recipe.

Typically, you need basic kitchen items like a pan and cutting board.
