eMeals - Healthy Meal Plans 12+

I came back to eMeals after several years after letting my subscription lapse. Boy, am I glad I did. You see, hubby, because of his pre-diabetes, wants to eat “Keto”. I said, okay, even though I didn’t really know that much about making Keto meals. You see, I was under the impression it was all about “meat and green beans or salad”….ugh! But boy was I ever wrong thanks to eMeals. I signed up for the Keto dinner meals for 2. I’ve been using these menus for the past two weeks now and I must admit, these dinners are absolutely DELICIOUS. I can’t believe I’m eating Cauliflower and actually like it - but I do. I like the way you can transfer the recipes directly to your grocery store and still have the option to edit and/or add other items to your cart. I love how I can print out the recipes instead of keeping my IPad in the kitchen. I also love how I can choose from several different Keto menus each week. You know, when it comes right down to it, I can’t really think of anything NOT to love about eMeals. And you know what else??? eMeals even gives you a free two week trial period. I am so glad eMeals reached back out to me - I’m definitely sold on this plan. Give it a try…..you’ll be sold as well!

We are so glad you decided to come back! We think the Keto meals are delicious as well :) We're so glad that eMeals has helped you and your husband adjust to your new way of eating. Thanks for the wonderful review!

I love the premise of it, I use it all the time and I feel like it makes dinner a lot easier. The recipes are easy and delicious, no complaints there... however. There seem to be two glaring bugs that knock the app itself down a star each, and once they’re fixed then I will happily revise my review. The first issue I have is that the Favorites section seems to be inconsistent. I favorited a lot of recipes only to find that they all disappeared one day. I don’t know if it’s because a new week of recipes came out, but it was incredibly frustrating. With that said, I wish they’d add a search feature for recipes on the main page in case it does happen again (which hopefully it wouldn’t). Secondly, I downloaded the app onto my iPad initially because it’s a big, nice screen to reference compared to the phone. I also downloaded the app on my phone so I can build the week’s menu and do my shopping on the go, but they don’t seem to sync. I created a new menu (and therefore a new list) that shows up on my iPad, but I can’t find a way for it to update on my phone. Also kind of frustrating! If those two issues were fixed I’d have no qualms about the app in any way. I already recommend it to people I know, but for regular users I feel that these two fixes would elevate the app and experience to a whole new level. Please consider looking into these!

I have been an eMeals subscriber for years. The App works very well and wouldn’t change much. The program was phenomenal back when it was simpler with a few meal programs. Now that it’s trying to meet the needs of everyone and every possible appetite, it misses the mark often. (1) Many of the recipes are designed with cross-over in mind. So - you’ll find the same recipe in 5 different plans. Problem is - it usually only hits one plan well and suffices for the others. (2) Kid friendly use to be exactly that. You knew it wouldn’t have mixed foods and complex seasonings. Yes, I have a kid that dines on anything, but my other one, I needed the boring kid-proof recipe. (3) Classic use to be true Classic (bring out the Campbell soup mix-ins). Now they try to make it healthy, too. And that doesn’t work for remembering the Classic tastes. (4) Slow cooker use to be all slow cooker recipes and included dinners, breakfast, and occasional other ideas. Now often the recipes are slow-cook once and 2nd recipe uses the first. Well, if you didn’t like the first, you’re out 2 recipes options. (5) They are trying to compete with meals in boxes, and are losing the core customers. What we used this for was to pick 2-3 recipes a week. Now - I’m hard pressed to find 2-3 recipes a week I want to cook, eat, or works for my family - and that’s using 2 plans and switching. I think I’ll give it another month. But then will probably quit.

Thank you so much for your feedback! We'd love to help you find the best plan to fit the needs of your family and the best ways to mix and match to create the best personalized plans each week!
