How to Choose the Right Meal Plan for Your Lifestyle (Without Getting a Nutrition Degree)

Because "eating healthy" shouldn't feel like a full-time job

You know you want to eat better. You might even have a Pinterest board about it. But when it comes to actually figuring out the perfect meal plan for your lifestyle?

Cue the overwhelm. Macros. Timing. Grocery lists. And don’t even get us started on recipes that require a spiralizer.

Let’s simplify. Choosing the right meal plan doesn’t have to be complicated (or involve kitchen math). Especially when Pete’s Real Food has already done the hard part.

Step 1: Know your goals. (And no, "survive the week" doesn't count. Okay maybe it does.)

Are you trying to:
- Eat clean without spending your life meal prepping?
- Follow a specific protocol like Paleo, Keto or AIP?
- Stop eating sad desk lunches?
- Feed yourself something that doesn’t come from the freezer aisle?

Great. Knowing your why helps guide your what.

Step 2: Match your goals with our plans

Here’s a cheat sheet that doesn’t involve a degree in nutritional science:

🌿 Chef Curated Menu
Our most popular plan. New seasonal menus each week, fresh ingredients, zero decisions required.  
Perfect if: You want to eat better and not think too hard about it.  
👉 Check it out here

🚗 Mix & Match Bundle
Pick exactly what you want, from over 20+ rotating meals. Control freaks (in a good way), this one's for you.  
Perfect if: You love variety or have specific preferences each week.  
👉 Start customizing your meals

💪 High Protein Options
Need meals with serious fuel? All our menu includes meals with average of 40g+ protein, because muscles (and busy days) need real food. Our Chef Curated Menu even has the option to add double protein!

Step 3: Actually enjoy what you eat (radical, we know)

Here’s the thing: a meal plan only works if you actually like the food. All of our meals are:
- Chef-made and scratch-cooked
- 100% gluten-free (and nothing weird added)
- Made with seasonal ingredients
- Delivered fresh, not frozen

Translation: no meal prep required. Just heat, eat, and pretend you cooked it yourself.

TL;DR: The right plan is the one that makes your life easier

You don't need a food spreadsheet or 27 tabs open to figure out what to eat. You just need food that fits your life (and shows up when you need it).
