Fresh Prep Makes Your Meals Hassle Free

Disclaimer:  I was invited by Fresh Prep to try out their service.  All opinions are my own.

In today’s busy and demanding world, it can be difficult to find the time to prepare a healthy and delicious meal at home.  This is where Fresh Prep comes in with their convenient yet affordable service.  Fresh Prep makes your life easier by shopping, prepping, and portioning the ingredients needed to cook one of their easy to make gourmet recipes in less than 30 minutes.  On top of that, they will deliver the ingredients right to your door.  I tried out Fresh Prep’s ingredient service first-hand to see how they can make a meal hassle free.

Gourmet Recipes

The first step is to choose a dish from Fresh Prep’s online menu.  It consists of 12 recipes of which 10 are fixed and 2 are weekly specials.  Each dish is reasonably priced between $10-$14.  You then choose a suitable delivery date and time.  Fresh Prep currently delivers to any residential or business address within this map.  They also have a storefront in Point Grey where you can pick up the recipe kits.

Local, Fresh Ingredients

After your order is made online, Fresh Prep prepares all the ingredients you need for the recipe.  To get the best ingredients, they have partnered with a number of farms and distributors throughout greater Vancouver, including Avalon Dairy, Hopcott Meats and Bosa Foods.  All meat and seafood are Canadian grown and naturally raised.

Sustainable Packaging

When I received my recipe kit, I noticed how efficiently everything was packed.  Fresh Prep uses sustainable packaging materials starting from the box which is made of post consumer recycled kraft boxes.  The meats are wrapped in kraft butcher paper and the vegetables separately in parchment paper.
