As a mom my days seem like a constant cycle of running errands, dropping off at school, picking up from school, dishes, laundry and "hey I just swept the floor". Hours can go by before I realize I skipped a meal or that the only thing I ate was whatever was leftover from my kids' breakfast or lunch. That's why I was so happy to discover Splendid Spoon! A ready to eat meal subscription service that is plant-based, vegan and GMO-free. Read on for my honest thoughts and how you can get $60 off your first three boxes.

Like all subscription box services, Splendid Spoon offers a few different plans for you to choose from - I'll get into the nitty gritty of that in a bit.
Unlike most meal services however, Splendid Spoon's meals are "heat and eat" which means all you need to do to prepare them is pop them into the microwave or pour the contents into a saucepan and heat on your stovetop.

If you've tried other meal subscription services where you need to cook the meal than you're familiar with those recipe cards that tell you how long it will take to prepare each meal. While I know I am not a "master chef", I do know how to read and follow directions and yet I always found myself taking much, much longer than the quoted time on the card.
With Splendid Spoon you do not have to worry about any of that! My days are spent in my kitchen because my kids are always eating. They want snacks, they want breakfast, lunch AND DINNER - who do they think they are? (Kidding, of course) yet while I am always feeding them, I'm never feeding myself and now that I'm 30-something, I think it is time to start making healthier choices.

Most mornings we are rushing to get to school on time and while I am perfectly capable of getting food on plates for my kids, I never seem to have any time for breakfast.
I love the idea of making smoothies yet I just never have the time to do all of the prep work that goes into making them, that's why I love the convince of the smoothies from Splendid Spoon. They are already made, no blender required! I can grab a drink and drive (okay, that doesn't sound good) grab a bottle and.. nope, grab one of their smoothies and head out the door and safely be on our way. A Lazy Lunch That is Delicious
When lunch rolls around if you work in an office (or you're currently glued to Zoom) the soup and grain bowl options for lunch are great!
If you're a stay at home parent, like me, these bowls are many, many (MANY!!) steps above whatever leftovers you eat off of your kid's plate. No more peanut butter and jelly sandwich crusts! The bowls can be heated in the microwave (just take off the lid and seal) but they do get really hot, so I like to pour the contents into one of my bowls and eat it that way. You can also dump it into sauce pan and heat it on the stove, if you really feel like cleaning a pot.
I've really enjoyed my smoothies and bowls from Splendid Spoon. I'm not sure if I am sold on getting a box weekly but perhaps every other week, as I found myself going through the smoothies quicker than the grain and soup bowls , which probably means I've skipped more lunches than I've realized.
Splendid Spoon is not a weight loss system and it does not claim to be - this service is to help create healthy habits and provide healthier choices that are super convenient! If you're days are jam packed and you're always on the go and you just need to "eat something quick", I highly recommend giving Splendid Spoon a try!
