I’ve tried shifting to a plant-based diet many times in my life and I always struggled to stick with it. The effort that goes into planning a well balanced plant-based meal is no joke! So I decided to give MANNA a try and I am never going back – the variety, the flavour combinations and the ease with which I can prepare a restaurant grade meal is a dream come true.

I always thought plant-based meant ‘salad’. I think that the hardest part of shifting to a plant-first diet is the mindset adjustment you have to push yourself through to realize that the possibilities are endless. Healthy plant based meals are much more than greens – my favourite MANNA dish is the BBQ meatless ribs.

It took me a minute to jump on the MANNA train. I have tried other meal delivery services and I never stick with them because all they do is send you a recipe and ingredients to cook with. I needed to make my life easier and they weren’t helping – but MANNA was a game changer! Restaurant grade meals ready to heat up, plate and eat in under 10 minutes. It’s both convenient and healthy, which is a rare find these days.

My husband and I are both really busy people. With full time jobs, the 3 kids and 2 dogs we have our hands full every day of the week! When I began exploring meal delivery services, convenience is what I was after. I needed to save time but not at the expense of nutrition – enter MANNA! Now I know that I am covered, 3 times a week we all gather around the living room to eat our MANNA meals and chat about our week. It’s given me and my family the ability to weave quality time into our day to day, and that is priceless.

I didn’t really understand what MANNA meant by ‘enjoying sacred moments’ until I made a commitment to myself to enjoy at least 2 MANNA meals a week by myself. No TV, no phone, no radio – just me, my mind and my body. It's given me the chance to explore my priorities and set my intentions in a way I never could have anticipated. Nourishing our body is a sacred practice, and that is something I am never giving up on again.

The worst part about cooking is definitely cleaning up after! No matter how small my attempt at cooking is, my kitchen is always a mess. So, I decided to give MANNA a try and see what the fuss was all about. I am SOLD! All i need to do is heat up the pre cooked and pre portioned meal components, plate my meal and enjoy. It’s changed the game.

My kids are really into cooking. I love to bake and we make dessert together every Sunday, it’s our family thing. They get so excited to help and it's a great activity to do together. Recently they started asking if we could make food together everyday and I thought – there are not enough hours in a day! But then I ordered MANNA and boy, do they love it! We ‘cook’ fancy meals together every day and they couldn’t be happier. I’m never going back!

I live by myself and my family recently came to visit me. We thought about going to a restaurant, but we hadn’t seen each other in a while so we wanted to be able to chat and catch up in private. I thought about cooking but I burn everything I touch! So I ordered a few MANNA meals to have that day, so everyone could pick one and we could spend time together. It was such a hit! This is now my go-to meal service for when I want to impress someone at home. I’ve never seen anything like it.
