After spending all day evaluating recipes and kitchen gear, sometimes we need a break!\r\n\r\nThat's why we've spent the past three years reviewing meal delivery services<\/a>. In 2024 alone, we tested (and retested!) over a dozen kits to ensure the selection, ingredients, instructions and quality meet our high expectations. Our Product Testing Team spent over 225 hours in their home kitchens and collected over 2,000 data points testing the top players on the market.\r\n\r\nOur all-time favorite, which has held the best overall spot for three years now, is none other than Martha Stewart's Marley Spoon<\/a><\/strong>. Here's why this chef-inspired service earned the title of best meal kit in 2024.\r\n

What is Marley Spoon meal delivery?<\/h2>\r\nLike other meal kits, Marley Spoon allows users to choose from a selection of meals each week. You can order two or four servings for two to six meals. Then, after you make your selections, a box of ingredients and recipe cards shows up at your door. Easy-peasy.\r\n\r\nWhat sets this service apart, though, are the chef-inspired selections that come straight from Martha Stewart's kitchen. We were awed by the restaurant-quality meals we sampled, including Skillet Beef Moussaka, Sheet Pan Piri Piri Chicken, Sesame-Crusted Salmon with Kale Goma-Ae, Butternut Squash Ravioli Florentine and Shrimp Tikka Masala.\r\n

How We Tested It<\/h2>\r\n\"Sesame\r\n\r\nOur team has tested Marley Spoon twice\u2014in 2022 and again in 2024. Both times, we were thoroughly impressed.\r\n\r\nRight off the bat, we loved that there were over 100 meals to choose from each week. Even if you're cooking for someone who's gluten-free<\/a> or plant-based<\/a>\u2014or need a meal kit that pleases the entire family<\/a>\u2014Marley Spoon has you covered. Each dish is clearly labeled and has pertinent information, like prep time, skill level, nutrition information and allergens.\r\n\r\nAfter making their selections, our testers were greeted by a box shipped straight to their door. Packaging is the only area where this service lacks. We didn't love that the ingredients weren't separated by meal, and we had some issues with leaky ice packs. (Everything was still safe to eat, though.)\r\n\r\nAs we got cooking, we found we needed to provide a few pantry staples like olive oil, salt and pepper. Our testers found the instructions easy to follow, and they even introduced us to some new cooking methods. The flavor, though, is where these recipes really shined.\r\n\r\nTester Molly Allen<\/a> said of the Sheet Pan Piri Piri Chicken, \"The flavor of the seasoned vegetables and chicken paired with the drizzle of piri piri vinaigrette was incredible. I ended up eating every single piece of the roasted veggies in one serving\u2014they were that good.\" And tester Sheri Kaz<\/a> found the Shrimp Tikka Masala stretched her cooking skills. \u201cFor someone who has never attempted to make an Indian dish, I found this recipe easy to prepare, and Marley Spoon provided all the spices I needed for a very tasty dish,\u201d Sheri says. \u201cI loved that they included fresh ginger and fresh garlic.\u201d\r\n
