Everdine – Healthy Meals Cooked & Frozen,
then Delivered Straight to Your Door.

A stack of seven packaged ready meals, each labelled with a colourful strip describing the contents, including dishes such as Paneer & Sweet Potato Kofte Biryani, BBQ Pulled Pork, Coconut Katsu Chicken, and more, all in brown boxes with white patterns.

Sometimes life can get in the way of a good ‘healthy’ meal, we’re always too busy doing our day to day chores, to take time out to cook something great. So, when I came across Everdine, I was quite intrigued as they offer ‘Clean & wholesome gourmet meals. Cooked & frozen and courier-delivered’. Most of their meals are ready to eat in around 10 minutes.

On their Classic Plan, which is what I used, you receive a total of 8 Classic Meals. It costs £55.20 for the box of 8 which works out at £6.90 per individual meal. It is quite a lot but I guess you’re paying for the convenience of it all. With Everdine you don’t have to prepare your meal or wash up after it. You simply pop your meal into the microwave and enjoy.

The meal choices seem to change every week but you can edit what you want too. I choose 8 meals that I thought Daddy would like as he’s the one who these kind of meals suit best. He tends to eat chicken every day. His high protein, low fat diet tends to be very repetitive, bland and boring so I thought these would be the perfect ‘healthy’ alternative for him.

You can see all of the meals that we had in the picture above, there’s a nice range of meals but Daddy did make one comment that too many of the meals have chili’s in them which he wasn’t too keen on. He doesn’t mind chili but he found that it spoiled the overall taste of the meals because all you could taste was chili. I guess if you really love chili, then that would suit you but if you want to taste all the other wonderful ingredients then maybe not so much.

The meals are all portion controlled so you get a very low calorie meal. The flavours (apart from the chili factor already mentioned) were all very good and the textures and choices were all very enjoyable. My favourite out of the 8 we received was the Coconut Katsu Chicken which was delicious. Daddies favourite was the Lemon and Black Pepper Chicken. 

The meals are all very well presented and look just as good as they taste, have a look:

A meal in a plastic container with wild rice and edamame on the left, grilled chicken breast in an orange curry sauce with more edamame on the right, and steamed broccolini and pak choi arranged between the rice and chicken.
A meal in a plastic container features chicken in tomato-based sauce with herbs, bulgur mixed with grilled vegetables like cherry tomatoes, green beans, and onions, and is topped with a folded piece of flatbread.
A divided takeaway container holds spiralised courgette, spiralised yellow squash, and spaghetti topped with tomato sauce, cherry tomatoes, grated parmesan, and herbs. The colourful vegetables and pasta are separated, sprinkled with cheese.
A plastic tray containing yellow and white rice mixed with vegetables like cauliflower and peas, a brown curry, and three round, golden-brown fried snacks placed on the side. The meal appears to be an Indian-style vegetarian dish.
A meal tray with brown rice, green lentils in sauce, steamed baby carrots, broccoli, cherry tomatoes, red pepper, small potatoes, and herb-seasoned vegetable balls, all arranged in separate sections. The food appears fresh, healthy, and colourful.
A takeaway container with wild rice, a piece of cooked fish with skin on, green peas, mangetout, leafy greens, and sliced water chestnuts in a creamy, herb-flecked sauce. The meal appears to be a balanced mix of grains, vegetables, and protein.
A cardboard food container holds cooked spaghetti, broccoli stalks, and yellow spiralised vegetables, with chunks of chicken breast in a creamy, herb-flecked sauce, all arranged in separate sections.
A meal tray with shredded chicken in sauce on one side, and colourful vegetables on the other: sautéed kale, red pepper strips, sweet potato wedges, black beans, chickpeas, and a round slice of corn on the cob, all arranged neatly.
Did we enjoy them? Yes we did, very much so. They were great time saving meals which were perfect for after work. The looked lovely and tasted lovely too. They were a nice treat.

Would I buy them again? I’m afraid not. I do think they are a little on the expensive side and there was too much chili in most of the meals making them too spicy for not chili lovers.

I love the idea of the meals, they’re prepared with love, created and cooked for you. They do make your life a little easier and save on the washing up. If you’re looking for healthier meals without all the fuss of doing them all by yourself, then they’re perfect for you.
