The Mindful Chef menus have been great…
The Mindful Chef menus have been great so far and the customer service has been fantastic. I would highly recommend this to anybody.
Lovely flavours but more sauce please!
I like the recipes but found that when I order three meals and they arrive on Friday evening, the chicken is past its sell by date by Tuesday. That gives me not much choice on when to eat which meals. Also I find that the sauces our soups are often too little in comparison with the meal.
Chinese Honey!?!
All of the dishes I have tried from Mindful Chef have been I tasty and easy to prepare with easy instructions. Most of the ingredients are of excellent quality but I was horrified and disappointed to see the little plastic pot of honey from China, packed in Poland and turning up in my kitchen…..how many air miles in that! It went in the bin. There has been a lot of publicity recently about cheap honey from China being contaminated with other ingredients and after tasting this ‘honey’ I would say it has more in common with golden syrup than actual honey. I’d say Mindful Chef have dropped the ball on this.
A review after 5 years of use!
We’ve now been using Mindful Chef for around 5 years, having tried several other similar providers before that. We order 3 meals for two people each week. We appreciate the quality and range of the recipes; and find choosing of menus and placing orders simple; the standard of produce and the final results are consistently excellent. Customer service when needed has always been exceptional. I couldn’t recommend them more highly.
Really great food
Really great food, healthy, nutritious and surprisingly easy to make ( for the flavour bomb at the end) would recommend trying
The lady I spoke to was really helpful…
The lady I spoke to was really helpful thank you
delicious, healthy and easy food
I have subscribed to Mindful Chef for 8 years now and I can’t rate them highly enough! In that time I have had 2 kids and it takes a lot of pressure off knowing we have nutritious meals in the fridge that are easy to make - no need to worry about meal prepping. They also taste delicious!
That it's so healthy
We enjoy cooking together meals that we get to choose good ingredients healthy meals that are quick the instructions are easy to follow
A bit disappointing
I don’t use Mindful Chef on a regular basis, but it’s great to get recipe boxes delivered when on holiday. This time it was unfortunately not as good as previous experiences. The website ordering system was confusing to change what had been ‘suggested’ for me, and it wasn’t clear that you needed to choose recipes according to what would fit into the box, rather than what you actually wanted. Some of the ingredients were sub-standard. For example, the avocado was so unripe, it was inedible; the green beans - five per person - were as stringy as old boots. I also found the recipe instructions a bit confusing, so had to improvise sometimes.
Excellent service
The mindful chef customer service team are a pleasure to deal with - always professional, timeous in response and solutions driven.
The best there is bar none.
We have enjoyed mindful chef recipes for the past few years after decding to eat in a healthier way. We are constantly delighted with the high quality ingredients and fantastic easy to prepare recipes packed full of exciting flavours. We absolutely love mealtimes with mindful chef and would recommend them to anyone.
MC a game changer to healthy & quick delicious meals
Not one for doing reviews but felt Mindful Chef deserves a good one.
We’ve been having MC recipes delivered for over four years and wouldn’t be without them. They are our weekly main staple and maintain healthy eating after a long busy day.
The recipes are really varied and always healthy whilst being very delicious and satisfying. I’m no cook but I can produce these meals perfectly as they are so easy to make due to the easy instructions and tips. What I like most about MC is there is no waste, the ingredients are exactly what is required. Without hesitation I completely recommend MC, it’s a game changer and everyone who has a busy life with no time to cook should know if they haven’t tried MC they are missing out big time on healthy delicious, easy and quick to prepare meals without any waste.
This meal box company is the best!
This meal box company is the best! The produce is fresh, the recipes varied and with loads of fish options too.
The website is super easy to use, for selecting your meals, changing the number of meals you need that week, changing the delivery day etc
I think it’s cost effective too as there is no waste. I love that my workday meals are all pre planned, packaged well and delivered at the start of the week.
I cannot recommend these guys enough!
These are the best meals I’ve ever had…
