Meal delivery boxes are everywhere these days. The Santé editorial team put five popular options to the test. Wondering which one fits your lifestyle? Keep reading for our in-depth review.
Allerhande Box (Serves 4)
Tested by: Web editor Shirley den Hartog
Price: €49 for three meals
Delivery days: Monday to Saturday
Meal choice: No
Conditions: Order at least four days before your desired delivery date.
Shirley's verdict: 'Before the Allerhande Box launched, I saw Albert Heijn's meal box as a smart solution. What could be better than having groceries and recipes delivered together—no extra supermarket run needed?'
In practice, it lived up to the hype. The box arrives via Albert Heijn's reliable delivery service, available Monday through Saturday with flexible time slots. With my standard office hours, I even scheduled delivery before work started.
The Allerhande Box arrives neatly packaged, with chilled, fresh ingredients and herbs in convenient small bags. It was a real treat not planning dinners for three days. Plus, it's an excellent way to discover new recipes and build your cooking skills. Preview them online, or keep the sturdy printed recipe cards included. Two of the three recipes are already in my rotation.
