Platejoy review.

I love the fact that Platejoy does the math for you when it comes to how much of each ingredient we need for a certain recipe. I love that they remember what we already still have in our pantry. I love that they partnered with Instacart!!! That’s totally the best part!!! The thing I would like improvement on is that they come up with even more recipes and also when we enter our own recipes, they need a list of more ingredients and it would be nice if we could add our own picture of the food.

Platejoy is Life-Changing

I love Platejoy. It incorporates some of my favorite things about meal prep boxes into a more sustainable, cheaper system that's completely customizable based on our family needs and the week at hand. Platejoy has cur down my meal planning time immensely. Also, I have not had one meal yet that I didn't like! Most I absolutely love. The recipes are typically pretty easy to follow (sometimes there are errors, but if you know basic cooking, you'll be fine). Overall I have saved money, time, and effort and I'm really pleased.

High quality food

I love to customize my meals for the week, and they're super tasty. I do wish that there was a budget option, sometimes the ingredients are really expensive and I don't use it every week because of that.

Great service

Great service! Incredibly accessible and using the integration with InstaCart is really helpful on weeks where I feel I won't be able to make groceries myself.

The perfect meal subscription plan

I was looking for a meal subscription plan that would work with my food restrictions and had given up looking until I read about Platejoy. After taking advantage of the trial I subscribed and am so happy with that decision. I can plan based on my food restrictions, and even what I like, I get to pick my meals, repeat favorites, etc but still get the ease and inspiration of services that send you everything. I have found I enjoy cooking again, have started getting more adventurous in the complexity of meals I am trying while losing weight (side benefit) and shrinking my grocery bill. To me it is a win win as I get the benefits of simple to follow recipes, but also that I have complete control of what meals i want or what ingredients to buy.

I have really enjoyed using PlateJoy

I have really enjoyed using PlateJoy! I love how you can set time limits for how long recipes will take. Also, being able to incorporate food I already have in my pantry is super helpful! The partnership with Instacart is also great when I don't have time to go to the grocery store on my own.

Delicious food, easy to use, and affordable!

PlateJoy has been a great service to use for meal planning. Its so customizable, the menus are creative and delicious, and the interface is beautiful too! As a mom of a large family, it’s been fun to add some creativity to our meals, and everything we’ve made so far has been a hit, even with my picky eaters. We love PlateJoy!

Platejoy is a great option for busy mom's....

Platejoy is a great service that saves me 3-5 hours per week and $120+ each month. I am a busy working professional with a family of 4. Eating healthy home cooked meals is important to me, but I don't have the time to plan them consistently. When I do have time the meal plan is disjointed and requires expensive one-time use ingredients. Platejoy solves that issue. I also use the Instacart option so that I don't have to shop. My job requires travel from time to time and being able to remotely plan meals for the week and share them with either my partner or our sitter keeps my schedule from getting in the way of healthy eathing. Finally because I can choose how much time I want to spend cooking, I get recipes that are actually doable on a weeknight. My family loves rating each recipe and creating favorites for really yummy dishes. I have referred Platejoy to several other families that value whole foods and family meal times.

I LOVE Platejoy

I LOVE Platejoy! I have 4 kids & hate meal planning, especially since I eat keto. Platejoy makes it super easy & my kids have loved every meal. No more searching for new recipes & there are tons of customization options. I've also found we spend quite a bit less on groceries even though we have more variety in our meals. Worth every single penny in both time & money saved.

No more “What’s for Dinner?”

My family of 5, 3 of those children, have been using PlateJoy for a few months and it’s helped us tremendously stay on track with our health goals and budget! It’s easy to use, send the grocery list to Instacart or print and get your shopping done. We’re very busy-with crazy schedules and this takes one less worry and stops one more potential arguement: “what’s for dinner?” That both of us hate to ask each other!

This app has been life changing

This app has been life changing. Do it. As working parent of a preschooler, my partner and I just do not have the time for meal planning, grocery shopping, AND cooking. (Chicken nuggets and pasta it is! )As much as I willed it to happen, I just don't have the bandwidth. PlateJoy has been incredible. With the app, meal "planning" takes less than 5 minutes; grocery "shopping" happens is so easy thanks to PlateJoy's connection to Instacart; and I get to focus on the fun of actually cooking! The meals have all been delicious and healthy. It's easy to customize. It asks you what's already in your pantry so you don't accidentally keep re-buying the same spice. It selects dishes to minimize food waste. You can adjust portions if you have guests coming. Amazing.

Best investment

Investing in platejoy has been one of the best decisions I've made this year. Being a mom and an entrepreneur time can be limited so this just took away one of the most stressful parts of my week which is meal planning.

I love this app

I love this app! They make everything about meal planning so easy. I used to go to the store and buy produce that I ended up throwing away because I didn't use it in time. The lists and meal plans have almost eliminated this problem and I always get new meals so I'm not getting bored or in a mealtime rut.
