FTC : Pittsburgh Fresh sent us the meals. We do not get commission from the discount and they did not pay us for this review.
Nutrition is one of the things I’m constantly blogging or talking about it. It is so important to not only you body, but mental health as well. Nutritional deficiencies can lead to mood swings and disease which are both things that we do not want. Many times when we make the commitment of eating healthier or losing weight we can easily get sucked back into our unhealthy habits because of the following:
-
- Takes too much time to prepare and cook
- You hate cooking
- It doesn’t taste good
- Too expensive
The good news is that a meal prep company can help you out with that . Pittsburgh Fresh is a chef created meal delivery service that creates delicious and healthy meals. They even label each meal with their macros. We placed our order and it was delivered about 4 days later. You can either have it delivered to your home for six bucks or pick it up from a variety of locations across Pittsburgh.
We ordered a couple different meals including:
- Buffalo chicken pasta with mashed potatoes
- Beef black bean burger served with oven roasted carrots(with mashed potato)
- Creamy sun dried tomato chicken with mustard green(with spinach tomato pasta)
- Vegan/Vegetarian: Vegan burger with baked carrots
Let’s get right to the review:
Creamy sun dried tomato chicken with pasta & mustard greens
His perspective
CONS:
- Could benefit from cooking the chicken a bit longer
- Container would be better if it were BPA free
- Could benefit from using more spices
PROS:
- High quality of chicken and vegetables
- Nice sized portions
- Easily able to track your calories or macros throughout day
Her perspective
- Wish there were more vegetarian options
- Avoid microwaving the food if possible as microwave ovens radiate your food
- Great packaging ! I accidentally dropped two containers filled with food and the container did not come open
- Liked the nutritional info on every container
- Good quality food
- Nice selection of meals
- A lot of food per meal
Overall, we enjoyed our meals. Our absolute favorite was the vegan burger. It had so much flavor and the quinoa was delectable. We were both surprised at how good it tasted! Our second favorite was chicken was the sun dried tomato chicken and mustard greens. We will definitely be ordering again. We also wanted to thank Pittsburgh Fresh for sending us the meals and offering our community a discount !
