5 Real-Life Reasons A Meal Subscription Supports New Parents

Bringing home a newborn means welcoming a world of magical and exciting experiences. These are unforgettable moments, from feeling their tiny fingers curl around yours for the first time to snapping a million pictures of their sleepy smile. But during these exciting times, eating regular meals often falls to the bottom of the list. 

During parenthood, cooking can often feel like a chore. But nourishing yourself still matters, even when running on empty. Read below with MealFix Canada as we explore the top reasons why meal subscriptions are perfect for new parents. Let’s dig in. 

1. No Time For Clean Up? No Problem.

When you have a baby in your arms or strapped to your chest, post-dinner cleanup can feel like an Olympic sport. A fussy newborn changes your life in more ways than one. Especially the state of your kitchen. From pans left to soak (and ultimately forgotten about) to sticky counters—cleaning can be a struggle. It can feel like there’s just not enough time in the day. 

Our family trays are a game-changer during mealtime. These meals feed families of four or more—simply heat in the oven and enjoy. Clean-up is stress (and pot) free!

1. A Much Needed Break For Your Brain 

New parents have an endless list of things to think about. There are dishes to be washed, laundry to be folded, diapers, and formula to be stocked—all while making sure the baby is taken care of. It’s the ultimate balancing act, done on just three hours of sleep. Thinking about dinner is often the last priority.

That’s when Meal subscriptions, like MealFix, come in. We handle the hard part. All you have to do is place your order and enjoy contactless delivery! If you’re busy with your baby (or finally sneaking in a nap), don't worry! We drop your delivery right to your doorstep.

1. Even Better Than Takeout

From the stage of early parenthood onward, most new parents struggle to eat balanced meals. It’s not a surprise that restaurant takeout is a popular choice, with meals just a tap away. But with the nutritional quality of takeout continuing to plummet, having reliable meals at home starts to make more sense. 

At MealFix, we believe meals should be fresh (and never frozen), delicious, and nourishing. Our entrees are packed with wholesome goodness and no-nonsense ingredients. We bring authentic, bold cultural flavours to every bite—so you can feel good and power through your busy day. 

1. More Family and Baby Bonding Time

Having a baby is a tremendous lifestyle change for your entire family. Newborn survival mode for moms is all too common. Quality time with your partner, newborn bonding time, and even time for yourself can feel out of reach. Investing in a meal subscription isn’t just about food. It’s also about giving you back time in your day. That means more time to relax, shower, or just breathe. 

1. The Ultimate Gift Hack 

Meal subscriptions make an incredibly thoughtful gift for any new parent. Most gifts for new parents are for the baby, from boxes of diapers to countless onesies. These gifts are all wonderful. But a week of fresh, ready-made delivered meals makes for a next-level meaningful gift. It’s a small gift that provides a significant relief system for unbelievably busy parents. 

Made for Busy Days (and Sleepless Nights)

Our meal subscriptions are designed to support new parents. Let us ease your day-to-day load. MealFix delivers throughout Southern Ontario, serving communities like Orangeville, Kitchener, and Welland. View our rotating weeklymenu, and sign up for our mailing list for 25% off your first order!

Why Delivered Healthy Meals Are Perfect For Avid Gym Goers

What you eat is just as important as how you train. Whether bulking season is starting or you’re trying to cut down in preparation for your next show or meet—your meals should support your fitness goals. Follow along as we share why it’s time for gym-goers to try a ready-to-eat meal delivery service.

MealFix Canada is Southern Ontario’s premier choice for delicious, healthy meals delivered straight to your door. We pride ourselves on our mouthwatering selection of authentically diverse meals curated by our talented chefs. 

Perfect Macros Every Time

When it comes to hitting fitness goals, a popular saying is "muscles are made in the kitchen, but revealed in the gym." We couldn’t agree more. We believe informed decision-making leads to better nutrition choices and healthier meals. Macro tracking is a popular method to ensure you get all the nutrients you need for your fitness goals. That’s why at MealFix Canada, we offer comprehensive nutrition macros for all our meals, including our protein plus and carb portion options! It’s never been easier to track your protein, carbohydrate, and fat intake. You can even add them into any tracking app. Say goodbye to guessing your macros! 

Stay on Track with Every Bite

Everyone has different protein goals, but many find that at least 30 grams of protein per meal is a sweet spot. This intake amount is often enough to promote high energy levels while still allowing for muscle building. While this goal is usually attainable, it can sometimes be challenging when facing the hurdles of daily life. Between the all-day hustle at work, managing household chores, and leaving room for nights out with friends—macro planning is tricky.

At MealFix, we make sticking to your nutrition goals stress-free. Our healthy meals also feature a variety of nutritionally complex sources, like chickpeas, eggs, and salmon! Most of our standard portion meals pack at least 30 grams of protein. If you need more, we also offer protein plus portions. These larger entrees typically feature 40 to 60 grams of protein. Looking to fuel your pump? We also offer extra carb portions! 

No Cheats, Just Goals

It’s a common misconception that cheat days are necessary if you want to stay on track with your diet plan. The idea is if you let yourself have a day to eat what you’ve been craving, it will help you stay on track. But the simple reality is if you love what you eat, there’s little need for cheat days. This is where services like MealFix, offering healthy meals, come in. Gone are the days of plain chicken with rice and broccoli. Instead, you can pick from a variety of delicious (but still nourishing) meals from across the globe. After all, hard training deserves great flavour.

Explore mouthwatering options like our Fajita Shrimp Bowl with Cajun Rice. This stunning dish features sizzling shrimp marinated overnight in a deliciously succulent marinade of spices. A fragrant bed of peppery and sweet cajun rice is served alongside this shrimp, along with sauteed bell peppers and onions.

You don’t need to eat the same bland food every day, no matter what diet or lifestyle you have. For example, we offer plenty of gluten-free and keto options! Our African Jollof Rice with Stewed Salmon brings bold flavours to lunchtime. This dish features slow-stewed veggies over a bed of pilaf rice, topped with a delectably flaky salmon fillet.

We also have plenty of vegetarian options available. Our Indian Paneer Makhani with Basmati Rice is a popular choice, making it easy to stick to a plant-based lifestyle. This classic vegetarian dish features luscious cubes of paneer bathed in an irresistibly rich tomato-cream sauce alongside steamed rice. Talk about comfort food!

Wholesome Ingredients for Every Meal

It’s all too common to check ingredients when grocery shopping only to find novel-like lists. That’s why at MealFix, we only use easy-to-read ingredients in all our entrees, breakfasts, and snacks. Eating healthy goes beyond labels and diets. It’s also about nourishing yourself with fresh, wholesome ingredients. Meal prep services go beyond convenience with us.

At MealFix Canada, our meal prep service is designed to be simple and stress-free.  Here’s our simple step-by-step guide to ordering your meals: 

1. Before you begin ordering and digging in, you’ll need to create a MealFix account. This account will allow you to track your orders and re-order meal packs easily.
