Sometimes cooking is difficult. Whether you’re recovering from surgery, just had a baby, or have concerns about elderly parents, sometimes you just need someone else to do the cooking. The companies on this list of gluten free meal delivery services can help meet those needs.
Food Prep Questions To Ask Gluten Free Meal Delivery Companies
In my search for companies offering gluten free meal delivery services, many companies offered gluten free “options.” However, I wanted to find companies that ONLY made gluten free meals.
Why? Because while gluten free ingredients are great, the conditions in which meals are prepared are equally important. Therefore, I asked most companies the following questions: (Policies can change, so please ask these questions prior to ordering.)
– Do you use certified gluten free ingredients?
– Do you test your meals for the presence of gluten?
– Are your prep kitchens 100% free of wheat, rye and barley?
– Do you use oats, and if so, are they purity protocol or certified gluten free?

Nationwide Companies
Snap Kitchen (100% Gluten free)
I first learned about Snap Kitchen when I visited Houston. They have storefronts in Houston and Austin, TX. They recently started shipping their meals as well. While their meals are not certified gluten free, “all of our ingredients are gluten-free and there is no gluten in our prep kitchens, nor do we use wheat in any of our meals.” They told me they hope to add certification in the future. Read Gluten Free Philly’s review of Snap Kitchen for more information. *Not available in Michigan

Epicured (Low FODMAP)
Epicured meals are not only gluten free, but also created to meet the Low FODMAP diet. This diet may help those with IBS, Chron’s and Colitis. They partner with Mt. Sinai Gastroenterology team, and use local and organic ingredients when possible. They prepare their meals in a dedicated gluten free kitchen, and even use purity protocol oats.
COST: Varies per items order. Order a monthly bundle, or individual meals
Modify Health (Low FODMAP)
Modify Health also focuses on Low Fodmap meals, which also happen to be gluten free. Modify Health uses certified gluten free and organic ingredients. I am impressed that they work closely with gastroenterologists and dietitians. For instance, Dr. William Chey, University of Michigan gastroenterologist, is on their medical advisory board. If you’d like to try their meal delivery service, use the code “60OFF” at checkout, to save $60 of your first three weeks of meals. (So, save $20 / week.)
COST: t $9.95 per breakfast entree, $13.45 per lunch / dinner entree. Includes the cost of shipping.
Thistle – Not Available in Michigan
The Thistle website claims that all meals are 100% gluten free and dairy free. While they don’t focus on specific macronutrients, their lunch and dinner options contain about 400-550 calories. Breakfast options contain 250-400 calories. While not 100% plant based, their meals are “plant forward.” (I’ve sent them an email about ingredients and food prep, and am waiting to hear back from them.)
COST: $11.50 per meal.

Daily Harvest
From their FAQ – “All of our food is dairy-free and gluten-free. Most of our recipes are also soy-free, but we do have a few items that include miso and tamari (which are made from fermented soy). Please note: Our food is made in a facility that processes dairy, nuts, soy, and gluten. “
Bistro MD
Bistro MD delivers to the continental US. (No Hawaii or Alaska). Meals are designed by dietitians and are geared to help people towards their wellness goals. Prepared meals arrive frozen. Please note they are not a 100% gluten free company.
From their FAQ– “Our gluten-free program excludes all meals and snacks that have wheat, rye, and barley. While we are not certified gluten-free, each of our kitchens is USDA certified and inspected. This means we follow all sanitation and allergen separation regulations for storing and cooking foods and cleaning.”
Mom’s Meals
Mom’s Meals offers many different menu plans for various health issues. If your or a family member are on Medicaid or Medicare Advantage, you “may” be eligible to receive these meals through your insurance program.
From their website – “Mom’s Meals® helps take the guesswork out of eating gluten free. All options on our gluten-free menu contain less than 20 ppm of gluten in each meal, are prepared following FDA guidelines, have been tested using the ELISA method to assess food for gluten and are created in our USDA-inspected kitchens following strict rules to ensure they are gluten free.”
Green Chef – Meal Prep Kit
Unlike the other gluten free meal delivery services mentioned in this article, Green Chef kits contain ingreidents. You, in turn prepare the meals. However, their Keto plan IS certified gluten free thru GFCO. I’ve tried them myself, and they’re ok. However, we can’t eat pork or shellfish, and found many of the Keto meals didn’t fit our other dietary needs. While this review is a bit dated, GF Jules shared her review of Green Chef, in 2017.
COST: $12.99 per serving
Magic Kitchen
As I was finishing working on this post, I came across Magic Kitchen in an internet search. While I’m unsure about their food preparation methods, something caught my eye. I noticed on their site that they state they work with Area Agency on Aging organization.
If you’re unfamiliar with Area Agency on A, this organization coordinates Meals on Wheels programs. They may be worth further investigation. They state these are meals made with “gluten free ingredients.”
COST: Varies Based On Meals Ordered
Hopefully this list provided you some options, and some peace of mind, should you need to order from delivery companies. As Celiac Disease and gastro disorders becoem more known, hopefully more companies will seek to serve us, safely. Have you tried any of these companies?
