So happy I found Fire Road. I have tried countless plant-based meals over the years. This one delivers! The meals look good AND they taste good. Meals from other providers were tasteless and expensive. I don't mind paying for the convenience as long as there is a variety of delicious meals. So excited to stumble upon Fire Road while doom scrolling at 2 a.m. (yes, really) In addition, FireRoad allows you to order meals without committing to signing up from the get go. I hate that others make you enter in CC information and then automatically sign you up for subscriptions that you don't want (that oftentimes are painful to cancel) Overall the experience has been amazing.
I ordered the "Lean Pack" along with a few extras.
I think the best value comes in the meals, my personal favorites were the shawarma and (to my surprise) the Tex Mex Scramble. These meals were very tasty and filling. Love that I can just keep them in the fridge, zap them for five minutes, and then I have a delicious protein filled meal that I actually look forward to eating.
While the taste for the smoothies and overnight oats was good, it is hard to justify the cost for what you get. They just don't feel substantial at all, and it seems the main ingredient for the smoothies is banana so you are paying $7 for a bunch of mashed up frozen banana.
Of course, you aren't just paying for the food, you are paying for the convenience. But making a smoothie or overnight oats is a pretty simple process. I find it doesn't take me much time to throw some kale, frozen fruit, and protein powder into a blender and I can make something much more substantial for much less per serving.
If I was to renew my subscription I would definitely pack it full of their savory meals.
I tried the Fireroad X line and really liked it. The only caveat I'd have to add is the request for more veggies and fewer "Chicken", "Steak" or tofu. It's almost all protein which may be the idea but I think it would be more satisfying if you upped the veggies. More balanced. Otherwise the love the it. It's almost impossible to find something that works for a vegetarian diabetic like myself.
So far, loving every meal! Every one has been great tasting, and get 2-3 meals per container. Great taste and value.
I am on my second order and feeling satisfied with the meals. They taste good and I am meeting my macros for the most part while still eating plant-based.
So far the meals have been solid. Some better than others, but overall happy with each meal. Love the variety and choices, it’s easy to enjoy international favorites while still being plant based. My favorite feature is that these are cooked and then flash frozen. Having healthy ready to eat plant based meals with the convenience of being frozen is awesome! I tried other ready to eat plant based delivery services that are refrigerated and that put an expedited timer on when they had to be eaten. I love that with fire road I don’t have to worry about eating meals before they go bad nearly as much! Overall very happy.
