Grubby Expands into Chef-Created Frozen Vegan Ready Meals
Grubby, the United Kingdom's pioneering plant-based meal kit brand, has broadened its culinary offerings by introducing a new range of chef-made frozen ready meals. This expansion aims to provide busy vegan households with convenient, high-quality dining solutions that require minimal preparation time.
Quick and Convenient Plant-Based Dining
The newly launched frozen meals are designed to be ready to eat in less than eight minutes from frozen, offering a swift alternative to daily cooking. Customers can choose from a variety of dishes, including Creamy 'Nduja Rigatoni, Miso Tamari Buddha Bowl, and Tofu Saag Paneer Curry. These meals are delivered directly to your doorstep, with flexible delivery options such as weekly or monthly schedules, and the ability to skip weeks for planned trips.
Affordable Pricing and Bundle Options
Starting from £4.84 per portion, Grubby provides several bundle choices to suit different needs. New customers benefit from a 25% discount on their first month's order, automatically applied at checkout. For instance, the Mixed Taster Bundle, which typically costs £79.80 for 12 meals, is reduced to £59.85 with the discount. This bundle includes a diverse selection such as Tex-Mex Protein Bowl, Spicy Szechuan Noodles, and Chickpea & Apricot Tagine, along with a complimentary bottle of GOOD PHATS Spanish Extra Virgin Olive Oil.
For smaller orders, the Comfort Classics Bundle offers four meals, including Tofu Saag Curry and Cashew Mac & Greens. While individual meals can be purchased separately, a minimum order of six ready meals is required. All meals are crafted to be gut-friendly, rich in fibre, protein, and wholefoods, with the flexibility to cancel subscriptions at any time.

Overall, many users find Grubby transformative for their busy lifestyles, with one stating, "Grubby has been life-changing! I have been introduced to so many new foods, and I look forward to dinner every day!"
