I received free product from the folks at Veestro and agreed to do this review. There was no requirement for me to be anything less than honest, and I was given no other compensation for this post. Enjoy!

I’ve been a vegetarian for almost 10 years and am the ONLY plant only eater in my family. It’s normally not an issue as I can modify most meals for myself (tacos, for example, I just add more veggies for me and give them the meat!) but sometimes I feel like they always end up with the main dish and I’m stuck just eating the sides.

So when Veestro approached me about doing a review I instantly knew I wanted to give it a try!

Here’s how it works: the deliver your food in a big box marked “perishable” packed well with dry ice. You then put them in the freezer and re-heat and eat when you’re ready!

First up? Savory croquettes with veggie hash.

I ran into a little trouble with the reheating process. It said heat in a skillet, 4 minutes each side but that wasn’t nearly enough so I’m wondering if I was supposed to thaw it first? I may try putting the next one in the fridge over night to see if the cooking directions are more accurate.

But finally, we were ready to eat.

And it was . . . .REALLY REALLY GOOD! The flavor was great and although I would have loved more veggie hash (the portion of that was super small) I felt satisfied when I was done eating. If you’re a big eater you’ll definitely want to add a side salad to make this a full meal.

Next up? Creamy risotto.

This is my new favorite! This one could be microwaved and the directions were spot on. I absolutely adored this dish. Felt very full and satisfied afterward and the consistency of the risotto was perfect which is TRICKY!

On the weekends, my husband grills burgers a lot so I was super happy to find a veggie pattie in the box. I microwaved it almost done and then had him throw it on the grill for me and YUM. So good – this will definitely go on the list for future orders.

I wasn’t a fan of either of the breakfast options. I’m actually a really simple breakfast person and the entrees just didn’t appeal to me so I won’t order those in the future.

The cheesecake, on the other hand, was HEAVENLY and my absolute favorite thing in the box.

I was happy with almost everything and my only comment would be that some of the cooking times seemed really off. But it was pretty easy to figure out how to modify it.

I will DEFINITELY be ordering from Veestro again. Keep in mind that because the food is all fresh with no chemical preservatives, it’s meant to be eaten with a few weeks, even when in the freezer, so I’ll only be ordering what I know I can eat. But if you’re trying to watch your calories or if you’re like me and a vegetarian surrounded by carnivores, this is a great option for quick and very healthy meals.
