There are 13 different meal plans in total, and we don’t have enough space to cover them all so I will divide them into two categories:
Classic Meal Plans- this meal plan is offered with the 3 meals per week for either a couple or a family of 4. They have meal plans that fit into vegan diets, vegetarian diets, low carb diets, paleo diets, and the Mediterranean diet.
Sunbasket have one called lean and clean which is popular with fitness enthusiasts. It contains plenty of lean protein and clean ingredients, meaning that there are no additives and preservatives. All of Sunbasket’s meat products are clean, hormone and antibiotic free, free range, and wild caught.
They also have gluten free meals for those who are gluten intolerant and a meal plan for those who suffer from diabetes. There is something for everyone, even pescatarians.
The chef’s choice menu is a mix of all of these with only the best seasonal produce and proteins that are fresh.
Curious as to what kind of meals you could be getting. How does chicken cacciatore over fresh pappadelle sound? What about Greek shrimp with tomatoes, feta, and orzo? Their meals are very gourmet and full of flavor.
Family Meal Plans- the family meal plan has fewer options but much bigger portions. You can choose between 2, 3, and 4 meals per week for a family of 4. They have the chef’s choice and vegetarian options to choose from.
Unlike the classic meal plan which has 18 weekly meals to choose from the family meal plan only has 6, this is due to the fact that portion sizes will be bigger and ingredients are adjusted to fit more people while also being quick and easy to cook.
All of the recipes are available to the classic meal plan subscribers, but they pay $1 more per serving. This meal plan is for those looking to get the most out of your money! This meal plan service is easy to use. You choose your desired meal plan and the amount of servings and meals you want per week. You can always mix and match if you want something from different meal plans.
For example, if you are subscribed to the pescatarian meal plan, you will receive options that fit your choice, but you can also choose a meal that is listed under the vegetarian or vegan meal plan if you choose.

The price of your meal plan would depend on your chosen plan, servings, and meals per week. The classic menu’s price per serving is $11.99 and the family menu’s price per serving is $10.99.
You can always change your meal plan to accommodate more people on weeks that you will be having guests and lower it again once they leave so that you don’t have to pay for more food than you will be eating.
