Meal kit delivery services are a Godsend for busy professionals, families, or those who just aren’t all that talented in the kitchen. For those on a plant-based diet, it can also be difficult to whip up delicious vegan meals from scratch that don’t end up tasting the same day after day. 

Although the Calgary meal kit delivery game isn’t as robust as larger cities like Vancouver and Toronto, I went on a hunt to find the best vegan meal kit companies in Calgary. Here’s what I found:

Why try a vegan meal kit delivery service?

Meal kit delivery companies, especially those with delicious vegan options, not only are a great way to learn how to make tasty vegan meals at home, but have the added benefits of sourcing local, organic, fresh vegetables and ingredients that you wouldn’t find when grocery shopping at your local grocery chain. Have you ever been to a vegan restaurant only to discover that vegan food can be fun, fresh, and exciting? Many vegans tend to try a plant based diet, whether it’s for weight loss, ethical reasons, or to live a healthier lifestyle, and end up throwing in the towel after trying to survive on broccoli and tofu. You can usually save the recipe cards to recreate your dishes in the future too!

What is the best vegan meal delivery service in Calgary?

Living in Alberta, the focus is usually on steak and meat and it can be difficult to find not only restaurants, but meal kit delivery services that value farm-fresh vegetables and cater to vegetarians or vegans. But I did find a few companies that focus on healthy meals and cater to a vegan diet. 

The following companies offer either vegan meal kits, vegetable meal kits that can be customized, or ready to eat vegan meal deliveries so you can skip the cooking and go straight to the eating:

Fresh Prep

tapas with radish, green veggies, and meat

Alberans, rejoice! Vancouver’s popular meal kit service is now available in Calgary, Red Deer, and Edmonton. 

Fresh Prep was founded in 2014 by 3 childhood friends in search of a solution to cook fresh, healthy, delicious meals at home on a busy schedule. With a focus on high-quality ingredients and sustainable practices, Fresh Prep takes all the prepping and planning out of cooking at home, so you can cook wholesome, restaurant-quality meals in under 30 minutes.

Subscription plans are available for 2 people (2 servings per meal) or a family (4 servings per meal), with up to 4 recipes each, ranging from $10.99 – $13.99 per plate. 

Meals can be customized according to your vegan dietary preferences in your profile’s taste settings. You can also choose to add items from their Add-ons market, including healthy treats, and sustainably-sourced meats and fish. 

Fresh Prep’s unique selling point is their Zero Waste Kits, in which ingredients are separated into reusable cups, which fit into an airtight container. Once you’ve cooked your meal, Fresh Prep will pick up the kit for free to sanitize and reuse.

Delivery is free, and you’ll get 3 free meals with your first order

Rooted

Founded in Calgary, Rooted Meal Prep sources locally grown, organic ingredients for their plant-based meal kits from Calgary and Alberta farmers. Choose from their Peas in a Pod box ($89) for 2 adults or Bunches of Carrots box ($149), ideal for 3 adults or a family of 5-6. Meal plans change weekly, with 3 featured recipes a week like vegan lasagna rolls and vegan fettuccine with cauliflower cashew dill sauce. 

Although the price range for this meal kit delivery company is slightly higher than most, we think it’s worth a try, largely because of the emphasis on quality, whole foods. And if you’re not ready to commit to a subscription, you can order boxes a la carte for $4 more.

HelloFresh

Hellofresh meal kit

One of the more established meal kit companies out there, HelloFresh’s kits are customizable according to the number of people eating and the variety of recipes included. Recipes are designed with convenience in mind with only 6 steps, and they’re ready in 30 minutes, give or take (if your knife skills don’t quite cut it, meals may take slightly longer to prepare).

Does HelloFresh do vegan meals?

HelloFresh does not specifically offer vegan meal kits; however, they do offer vegetarian-friendly meal kits using fresh, seasonal ingredients. We would recommend to opt for a vegetarian meal and make substitutions like using dairy-free cheese or plant-based milk to suit a vegan diet.  

Vegetarian plan options are customizable as follows:

  • 3 recipes for 2 adults: $12.17 per serving
  • 4 recipes for 2 adults: $11.88 per serving
  • 3 recipes for 4 adults: $10.83 per serving
  • 4 recipes for 4 adults: $10.31 per serving
  • 4 recipes for 5 adults: $9.25 per serving

If you’re ordering for the first time, HelloFresh will waive the $9.99 shipping fee and you’ll get $150 off your first box.
