Meal Subscription Services

Sunbasket provides flexible meal plans that can be cancelled or skipped at any time. There is no charge to skip a week. Customers can choose their own recipes each week or select the mean plan suggested by the meal delivery service for them. Recipes come with pre–measured ingredients, which makes for less food waste and easier cleanup.

Sunbasket offers two meal plans the Classic Menu and the Family Menu. With the Classic Menu, customers can choose 2, 3, or 4 recipes a week that feed 2 or 4 people.
