Green Chef Meals Reviews
We’ve tried several different types of Green Chef meals over the years including Keto, Paleo, Balanced Living, Vegetarian, and Gluten Free.
Our favorite Keto & Paleo meals are the Pork Tenderloin with Chive Butter, the Sesame Ginger Beef Patties, Spicy Sesame Shrimp, Cumin-Spiced Shrimp, and the Mediterranean Pork Meatballs.
We also liked many of the “Balanced Living” recipes, which are no longer a menu meal type but are integrated into other meal types on the Green Chef menu.
Our favorites included the Shepherd’s Pie, Pork Chops with Apricot Pan Sauce, Mediterranean Salmon, Tilapia with Spicy Scallion Aioli, and Sriracha-Tamari Beef Bowls. Get up to 50% OFF >>
Here are my reviews of our favorite Green Chef recipes.
Cumin-Spiced Shrimp: This is one of my top 5 meal kit recipes of ALL TIME! It was so simple to make and packed with flavor.
We loved the creamy cotija cheese mixed in with the veggies along with the crunchy toasted pepitas, but the star of the show was the creamy chimichurri sauce. It added a bright, fresh flavor to the cumin-spiced shrimp. Yum! And there was plenty of sauce for everyone to come back for more.
Pork Chops with Apricot Glaze: This meal included herb-seasoned stuffing packed with carrots, celery, and scallions alongside oven-roasted green beans.
The star of this dish was the apricot glaze that was made with apricot jam and a mushroom broth concentrate. It was perfect on the pork with a hint of sweetness. And the stuffing screamed fall. We would order this dish again! Get up to 50% OFF >>
Shephard’s Pie: This is a favorite in our house and we’ve ordered it from many meal kit companies. The meat was mixed with carrots, peas, onions, tomato paste, and mushroom broth for this Green Chef meal. Then topped with rich and creamy mashed potatoes made with cream cheese, and then topped with mild white cheddar and chives.
This meal was warm, filling, and everything you could want in a comfort food dish.
For our family of three, we added extra peas to the 2-person meal kit and had plenty for everyone. Yum! Get up to 50% OFF >>
Mediterranean Salmon with roasted grape tomatoes and thyme, couscous with feta cheese. This dish tasted really good thanks to the premade cumin-herb vinaigrette added to the couscous along with the feta cheese.
The salmon was good, but we wish the spices came through a little more and we would also like to see a vegetable on the plate.
Sriracha-Tamari Beef Bowls with jasmine rice, broccoli, cabbage, and carrots, topped with peanuts and sesame seeds. This dish was so easy to make and came together in around 25 min. We loved the sriracha-tamari sauce but would’ve loved more of it to cover all of the veggies and rice.
The toasted sesame seeds and peanuts gave the dish a great crunch and overall this was one of our favorites! Get up to 50% OFF >>
Tilapia with Spicy Scallion Aioli with roasted sweet potatoes, broccoli, and bell peppers with cashews. Thanks to the premade spicy ginger-lime aioli, prechopped sweet potatoes, and partially chopped broccoli and red peppers this dish was faster than I thought to make.
The sauce was the star of the dish and really helped to bring out the flavor of the fish and veggies.
Pork Tenderloin with Chive Butter, sauteed zucchini with walnuts, and cabbage and tomato slaw. This dish was delicious. My husband and son are not fans of zucchini but really loved the spice blend and the crunch of the walnuts on top. The slaw was super easy to make and perfect on a hot summer night.
A great tip, which was in the recipe, is to sear the pork tenderloin on the stovetop to get it nice and brown and crunchy on the outside, and then put it in the oven to cook through. Get up to 50% OFF >>
Sesame-Ginger Beef Patties with broccoli, red bell pepper, and cabbage stir-fried with cashews. This dish was so tasty! We added onion and ginger (pre-prepped in a bag) to the ground beef before cooking which added a great flavor to the patties. But the star of the dish was the tangy sauce. We put it all over the patties and stir-fry and could’ve eaten more.
We also added rice to the meal as the three of us were eating that night. This was much better than take-out.
Spicy Sesame Shrimp Stir Fry with broccoli stir-fry, cashews, spicy ginger-lime aioli. This dish could fit into almost any diet. It was listed as keto, paleo, gluten-free, and “Fast & Fit” on the menu.
There was minimal chopping with this recipe, which we love, and the spicy shrimp really packed a punch with the help of crushed red pepper flakes. Of course, if you don’t like spicy you can always add less or omit it entirely.
This dish was also very quick to make- chop the onions and garlic, stir-fry the veggies, quickly cook the shrimp, and then put it all together with aioli and cashews on top. We love the ginger-live aioli that Green Chef uses on a lot of dishes and help make the dish pop.
Mediterranean Pork Meatballs with cauliflower tabbouleh with cucumber, tomato & feta cheese. This dish was another winner and full of flavor from not one, but two sauces!
We all enjoyed the Mediterranean flavors and my son couldn’t even tell that he was eating cauliflower (he thought it was couscous). Get up to 50% OFF >>

We were genuinely surprised by how flavorful our meals were from the Green Chef menu! Our favorite thing about the Green Chef meals has to be the pre-made spice blends, sauces, and marinades. These are a time-saver and add so much flavor to each dish. Yum!
Every keto meal had premium proteins and a ton of hearty vegetables to ensure that we were eating well and would be full at the end. We would highly recommend the Green Chef keto meals even if you don’t follow a keto lifestyle as they are tasty and filling.
The other meals we enjoyed were full of flavor with generous portions. And while we really enjoyed our meals from Green Chef, we would love to be able to swap proteins or customize meals like with other meal kit companies.
Compared to other meal kits, Green Chef features organic ingredients in its recipes and offsets 100% of its carbon emissions. Green Chef meals are at the higher end of the price range, depending on how many recipes you order each week, but their quality is worth it.
