The popularity of online meal delivery services has grown exponentially over the last decade, and there are no signs of it slowing down anytime soon. In fact, the online meal delivery market is projected to grow to over 7.6 billion by the year 2024. 

Why? Because meal subscription services are affording folks an easier, healthier, more convenient way to eat at home without all the meal planning, grocery shopping, and cooking. Our lives are busier and our schedules are more jam-packed than ever. We’re all looking to save time when and where we can, and prepared meal delivery does just that.

Today, I’m comparing three of the best plant-based meal services on the market right now; Splendid Spoon, Mosaic, and Sprinly. If you’re looking to get healthy, plant-based meals delivered ready-to-eat to your door, then you’re going to enjoy the information in this comparison-style review of all three of these services.

Which option is the best choice for you? Let’s dig in and find out.

Sprinly is a 100% vegan fresh meal delivery service that delivers meals that are both free of gluten and of refined sugar. Menus are changed every week (as mentioned in my detailed Sprinly review), guaranteeing customers the opportunity to try interesting, new dishes each week. Every meal is nutritionist-approved and all options are fully prepared, delivered fresh, and are ready to eat in just three minutes or less.

With weekly delivery, you can choose how many meals you’d like per week; 6, 12, or 18. The Spinly team takes pride in offering simple, clean, and nutrient-dense foods that are thoughtfully sourced and developed. You can find a full description as well as the ingredients and nutrition facts on every meal before ordering via their easy-to-use website.

Mosaic is a 100% plant-based meal delivery service that offers fully prepared meals with organic ingredients and zero preservatives. The company was started by two long time friends, Matt and Sam, who were blessed to be raised by parents who valued serving healthy, home cooked meals to their families. Now in adulthood, this dup realized that preparing meals for themselves was difficult, time-consuming, and costly, but the alternative, fast food, was all together unhealthy. This dilemma sparked an idea that turned into the two of them experimenting with whole, fresh foods, frozen to seal in the nutrients and goodness.

Mosaic's take on meals is a fresh one. They believe that healthy, satisfying meals should be accessible to everyone. Their mission is to make eating well simple, tasty, and convenient for folks with all kinds of schedules and demands. Customer can enjoy meal options from three categories: veggie bowls, soups, and oat bowls. Customers can build their own box, hand-picking from their rotating fresh menu of vegan choices, or you can have Mosaic choose for you, filling the box with their most most popular dishes. 

Splendid Spoon offers fully prepared, 100% plant-based meals and smoothies. When I first wrote a review on Splendid Spoon, I noted that their rotating menu includes over 50 different options that can be mixed and matched to your choosing. There are multiple meal plans available, including options for 1, 2, or meals per day as well as a special reset plan and wellness shots for an added nutrient boost.

Their selection of low-sugar smoothies is part of what sets this vegan meal delivery service apart from the rest. Their organic, flavorful smoothies are packed with nutrients and are ready-to-drink. Other menu options include soups, grain bowls, and noodles. Each meal is prepared and delivered to you fresh.

If it’s breakfast, go with Splendid Spoon! Their smoothies are top-notch and perfect for grab and go mornings.

For lunches, I would choose Sprinly as they’re already prepared and ready to go. Perfect for stashing in your bag and giving a quick warm-up at the office.

And for dinners, I would recommend choosing Mosaic. They have a large selection of options and many of the meals are created to be dinner time dishes.

Need all three meals? Mosaic and Splendid Spoon are the only options that offer enough variety to cater to all three meals per day. At that point, the decision comes down to convenience, in my opinion. Splendid Spoon’s meals are already prepared fresh and Mosaic’s are frozen. 

Speaking of frozen, if you’re someone who has a crazy schedule and wants to flexibility to grab a freezer meal at will and heat it up, knowing that it’s always fresh, Mosaic is the way to go. You can also freeze Splendid Spoon’s and Sprinly’s meals, but that requires some pre-planning for the week.
