How does Dinnerly work?

When you first sign up for Dinnerly, you’ll have a choice between a two and four-person box, both allowing you to select three to six meals per week. The two-person box starts at $5.89 per serving and the four-person family box is $5.59. No matter which options you choose, shipping is a standard $8.99 on top of your meal purchase. Once you decide how many servings and meals you’d like, you’ll be able to choose either a traditional plan with meat options or a vegetarian plan. For your weekly deliveries, you’ll select one of five delivery dates based on your zip code with delivery times between 9am and 8pm.

Once you’re signed up, Dinnerly asks you what types of recipes and foods you prefer. Then, based on your preferences, it’ll recommend a few meal options each week that you can keep or swap out. If you’re happy with the recommended meals, your order is ready to go! However, if you’d like to swap them out for other options, you can replace them with other available recipes on the Dinnerly menu for that week. You’ll find about 28 meal options in each menu in addition to cookies, muffins, and protein packs like chicken breast, grass-fed ground beef, or pulled pork. However, if you want extra protein or desserts, they’ll count as part of your weekly meals. For example, if you choose the five meals per week plan, a protein pack would count as one of your five meals. As of now, Dinnerly doesn’t offer add-ons outside of your meal subscription.

Each week, Dinnerly offers a variety of easy, healthy, and creative meals to choose from. You’ll find kid-friendly, low carb, low calorie, no added gluten options, and more. Want to play it safe? Choose your favorite comfort foods like Skillet Beef Stew or Bacon Mac and Cheese. If you’re feeling adventurous, try out the Chipotle Chicken Burrito Bowl or Low Carb Seared Steak & Roasted Broccoli. Dinnerly even offers a referral program to spread the love without the price. If you invite someone to try Dinnerly for themselves, they’ll get a free box, plus 25% off their following three boxes. You have nothing to lose with a deal like that and a time-saving, belly-filling adventure to gain.
