This week I was asked to participate in a review about a local meal delivery service and I think it is one that many of you are going to love! In addition, I was asked to choose two friends to deliver a surprise meal to as well. This was perfect timing for this option as I have had several friends helping my family and me out over the last five and a half months since my accident, so I was excited to deliver and delight them with an easy to prepare, super healthy meal for their whole family!
What is Methodology?
Pre-cooked meals in Mix 'n Match jars with sustainable proteins, locally-sourced vegetables, gluten-free starches, and made-from-scratch sauces so it's easy to put together a home-cooked meal quickly! Methodology makes it super easy to keep your refrigerator stocked with whole foods ready to heat up and eat!
 |  |  |
How does it work?
Pick a plan (a weekly subscription you can pause or cancel anytime), personalize it letting them know which foods to avoid and customize to your diet preferences - you can even pick a calorie range, receive your freshly packed order and reheat the food on the stove top (recommended for optimal taste) or in the microwave. Saves you hours each week - no shopping, no cooking (just reheating) and know you and your family are eating healthy with ease!
 |  |
What kinds of foods do they have?
You will find traditional healthy foods like chicken meatballs, salmon, and broccoli. And also healthier versions of comfort foods like nachos, brownies, and breakfast parfaits. Definitely something everyone can enjoy - even picky kids! No diet food, no deprivation, no processed food. Just healing, whole, nourishing ingredients to keep your family healthy and energized with ease!

What else is important to know?
The Methodology menu is entirely free of gluten, dairy (except pastured ghee), trans fats, hormones, antibiotics, and refined sugar. Totally awesome, am I right?! And if you click HERE you will save $50 off your first week (or promo code MACARONIKID50).
Now for the fun part! Let me tell you all about our meals.
My box contained:
- Pastured Pulled Pork
- Roasted Broccoli with Paleo Hoisin Sauce
- Garlic "Parmesan" Sweet Potato Fries
- Ceremonial Cacao Grain-Free Brownie Jar with Avocado Frosting
- Cashew Butter Balls
- Spiced Keto "Kettle Corn" Walnuts
We followed the directions on the top of each jar and simply reheated the pork, broccoli, and sweet potato fries in a pan with a little bit of olive oil. Dinner was plated and served in right about 5 minutes. The pork was tasty and the kids loved the sweet potato fries. The broccoli was good and added some nice color to our meal. We fed the four of us and still had one full jar of the pulled pork left - perfect to create a second meal in a day or two! The kids had some of the cashew butter balls and spiced walnuts for snack after school and we all shared one of the brownies. I feel that the Mix 'n Match Jars would be awesome to have in the fridge to make my work-from-home lunches quick and super healthy. They would also make dinner super easy on those nights we are on the run. Just 5 minutes or less to go from the fridge to plate? You definitely can't beat that - Methodology for the win!
The two boxes that I delivered each contained:
- Grass-Fed Beef and Mushroom Slider Patties
- Grass-Fed Ground Beef Paleo Nacho Kit
- Roasted Broccoli with Paleo Hoisin Sauce
- Thyme Roasted Beets and Carrots
- Garlic "Parmesan" Sweet Potato Fries
- Ceremonial Cacao Grain-Free Brownie Jar with Avocado Frosting
- Cashew Butter Balls
The families that I delivered meals to had three to four kids each, plus two adults. The Nacho Kit made for a fun and different appetizer before their meal of beef sliders, broccoli, roasted beets and carrots, and sweet potato fries. Some of the kids loved the brownies and cashew butter balls and others were a little pickier and didn't eat much of them. There was more than enough food for everyone and the food was healthy and simple to prepare quickly, which made Methodology a win-win for both of these super busy moms!

Methodology is now delivering throughout most of the San Francisco Bay Area and Southern California. Follow them on Facebook here and Instagram here. Methodology: Food as medicine.
And some great news! Methodology just launched a cooler pickup program where customers can leave their old boxes out with empty jars, liners, butcher paper, and ice packs inside on their delivery day and the delivery driver will pick it up and replace it with the new one. This is part of their new sustainability program. Right now, they will be reusing a large majority of what they pick up and are working on solutions for 100% reuse of materials.
