We’ve tried several Daily Harvest products over the years including Scoops (ice cream), Flatbread, Smoothies, Lattes, Forager Bowls, Harvest Bowls, Mylk, and Bites.
As we opened our Daily Harvest box on a warm Spring day, we really loved seeing the new compostable and recyclable packaging. The only piece of plastic in the entire box contained the dry ice.
Everything else could be curbside recycled. SHOP NOW >>
We tried the Tart Cherry & Raspberry Smoothie, Strawberry & Peach Smoothie, Gigante Bean & Savory Cabbage Harvest bowl, Tomato & Basil Flatbread, Almond & Vanilla Mylk, Cremini & Miso Forager bowl, Vanilla & Sticky Sweet Caramel Scoops ice cream, Coffee & Almond Latte, and Cocao Nibs & Vanilla Bites.
Let’s start with the Daily Harvest smoothies. Both the Tart Cherry & Raspberry Smoothie and the Strawberry & Peach Smoothie had a wonderful taste and were easy to blend.
Our favorite smoothie was the Strawberry + Peach. It was bright and refreshing and absolutely delish!
Like other smoothies, they come in cups that allow you to fill with water and dump all of the contents in the blender. Once blended you can pour the smoothie back into the cup to enjoy.
Smoothies are $8.49 each and are in the middle of the price range for smoothies.
Smoothie Tip: Add your favorite plant-based milk or coconut water to the smoothies to switch it up! SHOP NOW >>
Next up, the bowls. We tried both the Gigante Bean & Savory Cabbage Harvest bowl and the Cremini & Miso Forager bowl and loved both.
The flavor in bowls was wonderful, fresh, and light though I added a bit of salt and pepper to each to boost them.
The Harvest bowls are larger and more filling than the Forager bowls. They are about 265g/11oz each vs the Forager bowls that are around 171g/6 oz. Just something to keep in mind as the Harvest bowls are more like a lunch portion and the Forager bowls are more like a snack portion.
The Harvest bowls are more expensive at $9.79 vs the Forager bowls at $6.79. SHOP NOW >>
Possibly our favorite item in the whole box was the Tomato & Basil Flatbread. This meal takes a bit longer to heat up as you need to bake it in the oven.
TIP: We recommend following the directions and heating the pan IN the oven as the oven pre-heats.
This helps to give the flatbread crust the crispy texture you expect from a normal crust. The serving size was perfect for lunch and the flavor was great. I added a pinch of garlic salt and red pepper flakes and found myself wanting to eat this for lunch every day. SHOP NOW >>
We also tried the Almond & Vanilla Mylk, which can be made and then drank or used in coffee or an oat bowl.
The “mylk” comes in frozen triangles and you add water to dissolve and mix. The nutty flavor comes through and we wish we tasted more vanilla.
We added the Mylk to coffee and while it tasted good, there were some undissolved pieces that created a bit of a gritty texture. SHOP NOW >>
We were really looking forward to the Vanilla & Sticky Sweet Caramel Scoops ice cream but were sadly disappointed with the flavor. All of the Scoops use organic coconut as the main flavor and this was a little too coconutty for us and lacked that yummy caramel taste we were hoping for.
I would imagine that the chocolate flavors mask the coconut taste more while still giving you a dairy-free sweet treat. In addition, this pint of ice cream packs a whopping 900 calories. We recommend enjoying the Scoops ice cream over the course of a couple of days to spread out those extra calories.
Last, but not least we tried the Coffee & Almond Latte and the Cocao Nibs & Vanilla Bites as an afternoon pick-me-up.
The Bites you eat straight from the freezer and the Cocao Nibs & Vanilla flavor tasted like cookie dough with a hint of coconut. Yum! And one bite is very filling – worth every bit of the 100 calories.
We also enjoyed the Coffee & Almond Latte but will note that there was a bit of residue from the pod in our cup.
We may need to mix the pod a little more before adding milk. It tasted like wonderful coffee with a hint of almond and gave me the much-needed afternoon caffeine boost I was hoping for. SHOP NOW >>
Daily Harvest delivers healthy prepared meals, smoothies, and treats directly to your door. All of the Daily Harvest meals, snacks, and drinks are dairy and gluten-free and do not contain gums, fillers, or artificial ingredients.
There is so much to love about Daily Harvest! They have a wide selection of products from smoothies, to several types of sweet and savory bowls, to protein bites, lattes, and ice cream. We enjoyed the bowls, smoothies, and flatbreads and recommend that you give them a try as you are sure to be pleasantly surprised by the flavor. We didn’t miss the dairy or gluten one bit!
And while we loved almost everything we tried, most of the savory items needed a little salt and pepper to boost the flavor. In addition, serving size does vary between items and we recommend checking the nutrition facts to compare the total weight before ordering. For example, the Forager Bowls (at $5.99 each) were the size of a snack compared to the Harvest Bowls (at $8,99) that were more in line with a lunch portion.
Compared to other healthy “meal in a cup” prepared meal services, the cost of Daily Harvest is in the middle of the price range with products ranging from $5.99- $11.99 each. But the products’ quality is top-notch with many organic ingredients used.
These healthy prepared meals are a delicious lesson in nutrition and perfect for anyone looking to make the switch to a greener fuel throughout the day or anyone looking for dairy-free and gluten-free healthy, clean, prepared meals. Get started with Daily Harvest today! SHOP NOW >>
