The paleo diet can be an effective option for managing weight and supporting overall health. However, because it avoids grains, dairy, and legumes, it can be challenging to create flavorful, nutritionally balanced, and unique paleo meals. A paleo meal delivery service may help.
Fortunately, many meal delivery services offer paleo menus, including fully prepared fresh or frozen meals and meal kits with ingredients and recipes to make on your own. Some of these services offer paleo meals alongside other menus to accommodate different eating styles in your household.
Here we review the services we’ve found that offer consistently delicious, healthy food, and a good user experience to make paleo meal planning a lot easier.

HelloFresh doesn’t currently offer a menu or meal plan specifically for the paleo diet. However, you may be able to adjust the ingredients in certain meals to give them a paleo-friendly twist. We recommend Trifecta as the best paleo meal delivery service.
Apart from its vegetarian meal plan, Blue Apron doesn’t offer any meals for specific eating patterns, including the paleo diet. However, you may be able to substitute certain ingredients in some dishes to make them suitable for a paleo diet.
While Green Chef doesn’t currently offer paleo meal kits or a paleo-friendly menu, many of the meals on the Keto plan can fit into a paleo diet.
Some of the meals on Factor’s menu can be included in a paleo diet. However, the service doesn’t allow you to filter the menu to find paleo-friendly options, so be sure to check the ingredients list carefully before ordering.
For those following the paleo diet, finding a meal delivery service that offers suitable options may be challenging.
Still, plenty of companies offer meal plans and recipes catered to paleo.
When selecting a meal delivery service, be sure to consider factors like cost, availability, variety, and ingredient quality.
