The company works closely with farmers and food manufacturers who are working to keep their foods clean.

5 Meal Plan Options

Green Chef offers five meal plans for a two-person family or a four-person family. Two or four family servings vary depending on the type of meal plan.

• Plant-powered — plant only meals for vegetarians or vegans

Subscription Auto-Renews

When trying out Green Chef, set a reminder to cancel your subscription in case you decide it is not for you. If you do not cancel your membership, you will continue to be charged with meals delivered to you every two weeks. Fortunately, you can cancel anytime without penalty as long as it is seven days before your next order.

Some Cooking Skills Required

While Green Chef provides the ingredients and instructions on how to cook your meal, some “assembly” is required. The recipes are designed for beginners, but consumers will still need to know how to dice, chop, and grate some ingredients.
