At 4:30 p.m., dinner can still feel under control. Then a work meeting runs late, someone needs a ride to hockey practice, and nobody remembers to take the chicken out of the freezer.
For busy Toronto families, the hardest part of dinner is often not cooking one meal, but making the decisions, buying the ingredients and finding time to repeat the process all week. At MealFix, our family meal subscriptions help take those tasks off your plate!
Think In Evenings, Not Entire Weeks
A meal subscription does not need to replace every home-cooked dinner. Start with the evenings that regularly create stress.
Monday may need an easy meal after a long day back at work and school. Wednesday may require separate portions because everyone eats at different times. Friday might be reserved for pizza.
Once you identify the difficult nights, you can create a meal plan that fills those gaps instead of overfilling the refrigerator.
Choose Family Trays Or Individual Meals
When everyone can sit down together, the family-sized trays from our menu provide a simple option for sharing! We offer rotating favourites from cuisines around the world, with popular dishes such as butter chicken, beef lasagna, and chicken parmesan appearing throughout the menu cycle.
Individual meals can work better when schedules or preferences differ. One person might choose a vegetarian curry, another may want a gluten-free entrée, and someone with a larger appetite may prefer Protein Plus. Everyone gets an appropriate meal without turning the kitchen into a short-order restaurant.
Make Weeknight Variety Easier
Families usually have favourite meals—and opinions about them.
Our rotating menu draws from hundreds of recipes, including jerk chicken with rice and peas, Greek chicken with lemon potatoes, burrito bowls, chicken shawarma and Cajun chicken mac and cheese.
Because dishes change throughout the cycle, your family can enjoy different flavours without researching recipes or buying a collection of ingredients that may only be used once. We also offer a simple menu with milder seasoning for family members who prefer familiar flavours.
Build A Subscription Around Real Life
Our ten-meal subscription can cover weekday lunches and dinners, but every household can use it differently. A couple may divide the meals between them, while a larger family might use the package to cover several busy evenings.
Six meals arrive on Sunday, and four arrive on Wednesday, providing a midweek delivery instead of asking Friday’s dinner to wait in the refrigerator all week. If your schedule changes constantly, start with a one-time or à la carte order before moving to a subscription.
Are You Hungry Yet?
Prepared meals can reduce grocery trips, chopping, portioning and cleanup for busy families. More importantly, they remove the nightly question of what to make when everyone is tired and hungry.
Ready to make your family’s week easier? At MealFix, we prepare fresh, chef-made meals and deliver them across Toronto and the GTA. Explore our current menu and choose a subscription that takes less time to plan dinner—and more time to enjoy it together!
