Many special options are provided each week such as protein variety packs, dessert kits, and a global pantry pack which brings essential global flavors to the table that culturally change every week. Weekly special packs give you suggestions of potential recipes to be made, but ultimately you decide how to best utilize your special ingredients.

Marley spoon does not guarantee that their ingredients are non-gmo, organic, grass fed, or wild-caught, but they do make an effort to provide ingredients that are seasonal to encourage overall freshness and quality of taste.
They offer a variety of gluten free and vegetarian options, and each meal is promised to include spice blends and seasonings favored by Martha herself. The ingredients and produce are always fresh and prepared, never frozen.
Their menus will always include what ingredients you need to have ready beyond what’s included in each box. They also make sure to mention what kitchenware and gadgets you will need so you can be prepared to make your meal.
Meal Prep & Taste
We ordered two meals pictured above that were easy to cook, yummy, and provided ample portions to satisfy your hunger. The Seared Steak & Salisbury sauce was a delicious meal that any American family would love. The portion size was perfect, and the food was so yummy!
The four-cheese ravioli alla Norma was easy to make but due to an eggplant turning rotten, the recipe lost one ingredient. Regardless, the food was still yummy and simple to cook. We would love to try the recipe with eggplant next time!
Martha and Marley Spoon’s price is determined by portion, amount of meals per week, and whether the meal serves 2 or 4 people. The price per portion is slightly lower for meals that serve 4 rather than 2.
