Hahahahaha The garlicky shrimp- it's delicious and reminds me of Hawaii! That's what I am ordering again on Monday for lunch! Shhh, Don't tell on me. My doctor just reminded me of my cholesterol, but the shrimp is worth it! Musubi- hubby said, 'oh it's good!' Kalua pork- moist and flavorful. Hamburger steak- more sauce please.

Had to try a little bit of everything and I'm glad I did! Had a plate that comes with rice and macaroni salad with chicken and beef and got an extra side of garlic shrimp and a spam musubi! Best musubi I've ever had, hands down!! The chicken is the perfect amount of crispy and juicy and the homemade teriyaki sauce brings the perfection all together! The shrimp and chicken were both flash fried to create the texture we all crave. And the beef was tender and juicy too. Legit didn't have anything I won't be back to have more of! I was told that the macaroni salad was made the "right way" and sure enough it didn't disappoint either. And to think all of this is done with a minimal setup. Going to have to hire her to cater an event or two. And to top it all off, Kristy (owner) is a beautiful human being inside and out. Like for real, what are you waiting for?!? Come this fire!!

First meal prep service I've tried. I finally decided to go for it because I'm so busy and I've…read morebeen working with a personal trainer to reach my fitness goals. My trainer suggested I look into a meal prep service so I could get better results and make more consistent progress. I feel like I definitely feel the difference training eating really balanced and protein heavy meals I've also been able to lose a few pounds in these 3 weeks. I am on my third set of meals, and I really love it so far. I think it is a great value for the convenience and quality and I like their selection and diversity. Their packaging is also really great, and everything is very intentional and organized. Every couple of weeks they change up the menu I appreciate being able to do swaps as well because I can't eat broccoli/cauliflower anymore Everything was really easy on the sign up and I was contacted to arrange delivery right away. Communication is consistent and great, any issues I can directly communicate with someone and it will be handled right away. I am very happy with the service, and I love supporting as local as possible! I would definitely recommend to try if you are interested in a meal prep service and are local in their service area. I think if I could offer any feedback it would be great if there were some vegetarian options or swaps available someday? My partner is vegetarian and this could have been a double client household :) but yeah understandably different target populations for different meal prep services - but just thought I would share.

Not going to lie, it took me the whole day researching different meal prep companies to order from…read more This company stuck out the most for me because of their menu choices and their excellent customer service. There is a meal plan for everyone; even if you have dietary restrictions and/or allergies. I made a note that I have a seafood allergy and they made sure I was well taken care of. Excellent customer service - friendly, great communication, quick responses. Delivery always arrives during the designated time, is contactless, and very well packaged. The food: The meals are freshly prepared, not frozen, and ready to be reheated. Many meal delivery services are so high in sodium. Not the case with Lean Mean Meal Prep. With every delivery, a nutritional breakdown is included. Most importantly, the meals are tasty, lots of variety! 100/10 recommend!

I don't always eat all my meals at home, so the number of meals I order depends on what's on the calendar for the week to come. Happy Penguin not only offers the flexibility of allowing me to pick and choose from their vast selection of meals - and order just as many or as few as I like, but their offerings are DIVERSE and DELICIOUS! Their deliveries are dependable (and the containers are recyclable). Bonus - I usually get two meals out of each Happy Penguin meal I buy, so it is an excellent value for the money as well. P.S. I LOVE the "Build Your Own Meal" option where you can choose your protein, your carb, your veggie and any sauces you might like!

I hate cooking but I want to eat fresh, healthy food. I have tried quite a few meal prep places and…read moreHappy Penguin is hands down the best. I have no idea how they can offer so many choices! There are pages of meals available on their site to choose from. I love being able to have a variety. Other meal prep places I have tried don't offer this kind of variety and I find that everything kind of tastes the same even when it's different. Not the case with Happy Penguin. And the portion sizes are very generous!! I freaked out the first week I ordered because the food was not cold when it was delivered, it even felt a little warm. I reached out to them and they let me know that they deliver right after they cook the food so it shouldn't be cold. Give them a try if you are looking for a meal prep service. You can do weekly plans which brings the price down a bit but you also can just order when you need or want it, no contract. Their pricing is also really good compared to other places I have tried.

The…read moredough is chewy and thin, the sauce is really flavorful, and best of all, the price is incredible! The only caveat i feel is that you do have to plan ahead if you want pizza the night before. He'll post on his website or facebook when they're churning out pizza's but it's usually on Thursdays. If you decide to give this place a try, order on their website the day before so he can prep all the dough. The cheapest ranges from $11 for an 11" - $16, again prices are amazing for what you get nowadays. For our first time we tried the margherita and sausage and both were amazing even after driving the 20 mins home. A warning though, the pickup is in a residential area and the left turn into his driveway can be tricky to find if you're unfamiliar with the area and picking up at night. Some of those driveways are a one way street, meaning you'd have to backup in the dark if you take a wrong turn. Once you make it onto his driveway, drive up and past his gate. You'll immediately see his pizza trailer once you go past his gate. Drive past his trailer and you can u-turn and do a "curbside" pick-up. Rex also does catering and I've considered that but they are on the pricey side. One of these days I might splurge and go for it. Although this takes a bit of planning and might be out of the way for most folks, I'd definitely give this place more tries as he offers more seasonal pizzas in the future.

My boyfriend and I went in thinking to ourselves, "we'll just try it for a few weeks", and we we've had our meals weekly from here for the past few months! We love it! We used to order from Freshly before and there really is no comparison. These meals taste home-cooked, while Freshly truly tasted like freezer meals. I also love the way I feel when I eat the food. The food feels fresh and wholesome in my body! I will say that the meals vary in size. We opted for the low carbohydrate 4 oz meal plan option so naturally, the meals are rather light. Some meals are a bit on the smaller side and I get hungry again in 90 minutes or so while some meals are larger and I am unable to eat it in one sitting. I do think some of the meals are lacking in salt/seasoning, but I just shake a little bit of "Everything but the Bagel Seasoning" from Trader Joe's and it does the job! The meals I enjoy most are the meals that include a sauce or meals with flavors that I know I enjoy. I do find that the meals that are simply a protein (ex: chicken) and a side of vegetables with no sauce are almost always dry. Overall, I highly recommend this service! There is such a variety in the foods week to week and day to day. The food is well cooked and tastes of quality. It feels good in my body and most importantly, I feel good knowing that I am eating good food!

Just moved from OC to SD, and are on the hunt for a meal prep service that comes anywhere close to…read moreHealthy and Fresh. We have used Healthy and Fresh since 2020, and miss it terribly. The meals were always very fresh, perfectly cooked, good combinations, healthy portions and very flavorful without too much sodium or fat. Delicious balanced meals with reasonable calories. They ensure their meals heat well in the microwave so foods are not overcooked (a common problem with other services). Their salmon & shrimp dishes always heated perfectly, their breakfasts are amazing as are the low carb cookies. My husband, who hates veggies as a rule, and often complained that there were too many veggies (there were not), is now complaining we are not getting nearly enough fresh veggies in the services we have tried. Converting my husband to a veggie eater is quite an accomplishment. We are not finding anything here in SD that comes close. So many meal prep services with enormous hype and marketing, and terrible food. Huge menus, but only a few dishes with reasonable calories. 1100 calorie breakfasts? Really? Hoping Healthy and Fresh Meal Prep expands to San Diego soon! We'll be waiting.
