Life in New York moves fast: work, the subway, the gym and little time to cook. Frozen meals solve that without giving up real food. With a bit of planning, you can have lunch and dinner ready for the whole week.
1. Decide how many meals you want covered
Start by counting how many lunches and dinners you want ready this week. Five work lunches means five meals. Lunch and dinner Monday to Friday means ten. Our meals keep for up to 30 days in the freezer, so you can order two weeks at once.
2. Mix up your proteins
Eating the same thing every day gets old. Rotate chicken, fish and beef through the week. The Fit Menu has light, balanced options, and the Traditional Menu brings the best of Brazilian cooking for when you miss home.
3. Organize your freezer
- Put the meals in the freezer as soon as they arrive.
- Keep the ones you'll eat first at the front.
- Check the date on the label and eat them before it.
4. Thaw ahead if you like
For faster heating the next day, move the meal from the freezer to the fridge the night before. Once thawed, don't refreeze it. When it's time to eat, just heat it following the instructions on the label.
5. Make the most of free delivery
In Manhattan and in Astoria, Woodside, Sunnyside and East Elmhurst, delivery is free from 10 meals. In Brooklyn, delivery is free from 20 meals. See the days and terms for each area: Manhattan, Astoria and Woodside, Queens and Brooklyn.
