Last week I wrote about the meal service from The Fresh Diet, but promised more details this week. The Fresh Diet is a daily meal service delivered to the customer’s door. A daily menu is provided, which lists the three meals, hors d’oeuvre, and dessert as well as the reheating instructions. The meals are packed in a cooler with plenty of ice packs. My meals were on my porch as early as 5:30 AM each morning.
At first I was hesitant about the sponsorship because of the strict gluten-free diet I must follow. I discovered though The Fresh Diet can make dietary accommodations, which was great news. Once given log-in access to my account, I was able to check boxes for any food/ingredients I dislike as well as allergies and food restrictions. Even when I ask for gluten-free food, I always have to be vigilant, knowing not everyone has the same level of understanding of what it means to eat gluten free. I was impressed with the D.C. Fresh Diet chef; not one meal delivered was an issue. My favorite accommodation made was the crustless quiche. Thankfully I had 3 different varieties delivered during the week.
In addition to the convenience and accommodating a gluten restriction, I discovered the food was great.
Here are a few of my favorite Fresh Diet meals from the week:
- NY strip steak with mango BBQ sauce with spanish style brown rice and haricot vert
- Crustless asparagus & cheddar quiche
- Santa Fe style salad
- Grilled chicken breast with spiced pomegranate sauce with rosemary carrot mash and multi-colored cauliflower
- Grilled pineapple with key lime yogurt toped with toasted coconut flake
- Assorted fresh fruit with mango yogurt dipping sauce (my kids’ favorite)
The Fresh Diet exceeded my expectations with the quality of the meals, customer service, and attention to details. As a busy, single mom, this was the answer to a busy week.
The Fresh Diet is even offering a special discount to my readers. Anyone interested in trying the meal plan will receive three days free with the purchase of the 31 day plan at $29.99 a day. To take advantage of this offer, use the promo code: singlmar29 at check out.
Note: This post is sponsored by The Fresh Diet, but my views and opinion of the plan are my own.

Sounds delicious and wonderful!
(And le sigh- food that you didn’t make, delivered to you? Perfection!)
It really was a great week, opening my door each morning to a bag filled with delicious gourmet meals!
Are you sensitive to gluten? I want to follow this diet, but I am worried that there might be mix ups or contamination in kitchen.
I am sensitive to gluten and did not have any reaction from the week I ate Fresh Diet foods.
