During testing, we consider several factors, including the ease of the signup and meal selection process, the variety and nutritional composition of the meals offered, ingredient quality and freshness, how easy the meals are to cook, and, of course, the taste.

There are many factors to keep in mind when selecting a meal delivery service, especially if you follow a gluten-free diet:

  • Certification: In particular, if you have celiac disease or another gluten-related condition, you can choose a service that is certified gluten-free or produces meals in a gluten-free facility to reduce the risk of cross-contamination.
  • Variety: You may want to check the menu for meal variety, including options that fit your tastes. Some services also offer options for other dietary needs, such as vegetarian and keto. This may be especially important if you have other dietary restrictions.
  • Ingredients: If you prefer organic food or meals free of artificial ingredients and preservatives, you’ll want to browse company websites for more information about the quality of ingredients used.
  • Prep time: Keep in mind that the amount of preparation required may vary. While some services deliver dishes that are ready to eat, others provide meal kits that often require 20–40 minutes to cook.
  • Cost: Along with the price of every meal, you’ll want to consider the total cost. That means accounting for factors such as shipping and other add-ons.

Yes, there are some terrific meals kits offering gluten-free options.

Sunbasket wins our vote, offering a broad selection of gluten-free, organic meals that you make at home. It also has prepared meals.

It’s important to note, however, that Sunbasket’s gluten-free menu items are packaged in a facility that processes food allergens, including gluten, so are unsuitable for those with severe gluten-related disorders, such as celiac disease.

Green Chef has meal kits and prepared meals that are gluten-free. These options are prepared in facilities certified as a Gluten-Free Safe Spot business by the Gluten Intolerance Group.

Though HelloFresh doesn’t have any specific gluten-free menus or meal plans, it offers some recipes that can fit into a gluten-free diet.

However, its meal kits are not prepared in a gluten-free facility, meaning that cross contamination is possible.

Some of it is. You need to choose Green Chef’s Gluten-Free meal plan in order to filter to the gluten-free options for entrees, soups, salads, and breakfast items.

The preparation of these meals also meet criteria marking Green Chef as a Gluten-Free Safe Spot business by the Gluten Intolerance Group.

If you have a gluten-related disorder, or simply prefer to avoid gluten, gluten-free meal kit delivery services make it easy to enjoy healthy meals delivered straight to your door.

When selecting a service, you may want to consider factors such as whether meals are certified gluten-free or produced in a gluten-free facility, as well as:

  • cost
  • ingredient quality
  • menu variety
  • required preparation time
