Gluten-Free and Plant-Based Meals
Sakara
Sakara is a high-end company offering gluten-free, plant-based (dairy-free, egg-free), organic meals suited for a “clean eating” diet. All meals are delivered ready to eat, not frozen. We fell in love with the Thai veggie medley bowl topped with red pepper lemongrass curry. The weekly plan includes breakfast, lunch and dinner for five days, with functional water and detox tea, at about $90 a day, $450 total. Subscribe to the service to save 15%. Sakara ships nationwide.

Always read labels carefully. Manufacturers can change ingredients without warning. Not every product sold by every company listed is gluten-free or allergy-friendly. When in doubt, confirm ingredients directly with the manufacturer.
