If you’ve been curious about vegan meal delivery services—or you just want someone else to handle the cooking for a few days—PlantX might already be on your radar. PlantX is still very much alive and operating, and their online stores, marketplace, and gift boxes are still popular. Their meal delivery service is also still available in select regions, so this updated guide gives you a fresh look at what it’s really like.
I tested three full days of PlantX meals, including breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks. Below is the full breakdown of ordering, packaging, what I ate each day, the nutrition details, and who this service might be perfect for.
Let’s dive in!
🥬 What Is PlantX?
PlantX is a vegan lifestyle platform in Canada and the US offering several services:
- Px: Shop – online vegan grocery store
- Px: Plant – houseplants delivered to your door

For this post, we’re focusing specifically on their meal delivery option.
👋 A Little About Me (So You Know My Eating Style)
I’m a woman in my 40s with a good appetite, but I’m not super active right now. I usually eat three meals a day plus a snack, and I would rate my current diet at around 6/10. I cook almost every day, often in bulk, and I’m not very picky—as long as it’s vegan, I’m happy.
My partner? Very picky. So meals that make my life easier are a big win.
📦 Ordering PlantX Meals
Ordering is incredibly fast—about two minutes from start to finish. The website is simple to navigate, and meals are clearly labeled (including gluten-free options).
They shipped me 14 items, which made up three days of meals plus a few bonus items.
🚚 How the Food Arrived
The meals arrived in two sturdy cardboard boxes shipped by FedEx. The boxes included:
- Insulated liners
- Ice packs
- Bubble wrap
- Paper padding
At first, the packaging looked excessive, but after thinking about weight + freshness, it made sense. Also, most of the inner packaging is compostable, reusable, or recyclable depending on your local services.
Inside the box, I found:
- A 10% discount card
- A packing slip
- A recycling guide
- A full 3-day meal plan
- Extra snacks they gifted me (thank you PlantX!)
Everything arrived cold, intact, and extremely fresh.
🥗 First Impressions
The meals looked colourful, varied, and thoughtfully prepared. Labels included:
- Name of dish
- Ingredients
- Use-by date
- Macros (calories, fat, carbs, protein) for most meals
- Clear lids so you can see what’s inside
The food looked like something you’d get from a specialty vegan café, not a mass-produced service.
🍽️ Day 0 – Dinner
🍄 Mushroom Soup (GF)
Calories: 134 | Fat: 7g | Carbs: 14g | Protein: 7g
I started with this soup because it had the closest use-by date. I heated it up, added toasted sourdough, and loved it. Rich mushroom flavour, creamy texture, maybe a little salty—but very tasty.
🍽️ Day 1
Breakfast – Modern Meat Breakfast Wrap
Calories: 669 | Fat: 23g | Carbs: 89g | Protein: 39g
Think tofu scramble meets beans meets Modern Meat, wrapped and ready to heat. I crisped mine in the air fryer and it was delicious, filling, and such a treat for a weekday breakfast.
Lunch – West Coast Crunch Salad (GF)
Calories: 597 | Fat: 37g | Carbs: 52g | Protein: 8g
I ate this during a ski break (Whistler perks!). Even after bouncing in my backpack, it held up beautifully. Loads of textures—greens, avocado, mushrooms, grated beets, savoury granola. Honestly, I would never put this much effort into a weekday salad.
Snack – Chocolate Chip Cookie (GF)
Calories: 380 | Fat: 18g | Carbs: 46g | Protein: 10g
Gluten-free but surprisingly delicious. Soft, sweet, and perfect with tea.
Dinner – Tandoori Cauliflower (GF)
Calories: 435 | Fat: 23g | Carbs: 54g | Protein: 8g
This plate had SO many components—roasted cauliflower, chana masala, potatoes, rice, mango chutney, spinach, coconut tzatziki. I would never cook this on a weeknight. Nutritious, varied, and deeply flavourful.
Day 1 Total: 2,081 calories
Very filling, very satisfying, very flavourful.
🍽️ Day 2
Breakfast – Wild Blueberry Overnight Oats (GF)
Calories: 254 | Fat: 6g | Carbs: 41g | Protein: 10g
Really tasty but small. I was definitely hungry again by lunchtime.
Lunch – Coconut Madras Curry Soup (GF)
Calories: 108 | Fat: 3g | Carbs: 10g | Protein: 5g
More like a spicy tomato soup. Delicious, but low-calorie—I added baguette to fill the gap.
Dinner – Modern Meat Spaghetti & Meatballs (GF)
Calories: 585 | Fat: 15g | Carbs: 102g | Protein: 12g
Lots of meatballs, not a ton of pasta, but the flavour was great. Gluten-free brown rice pasta was a surprise! Very hearty and warming.
Day 2 Total: 947 calories (plus snacks)
This was too little for me. Definitely a lighter day, mostly because I unintentionally picked low-calorie meals.
🍽️ Day 3
Breakfast – Tofu Benny Bowl (GF)
Calories: 318 | Fat: 11g | Carbs: 42g | Protein: 19g
Spinach, potatoes, capsicum, tofu “eggs,” and butternut hollandaise. Really fun brunch energy for a weekday. Kala Namak improved the “egginess.”
Lunch – Bombay Chickpea Wrap
Calories: 649 | Fat: 29g | Carbs: 87g | Protein: 24g
A big, flavourful wrap with mint aioli + mango chutney. Very filling and satisfying.
Dinner – Squash Masala (GF)
Calories: 393 | Fat: 21g | Carbs: 40g | Protein: 19g
Another multi-component meal—beet biryani, battered tofu, roasted squash, spinach tofu paneer. Loved the variety.
Day 3 Total: 1,700 calories
Much better than Day 2. Great flavours throughout.
🌟 Bonus Snacks
Coconut Chia Pudding
Calories: 1 cup | Very high fat but tasty. Not super filling for the calories.
Cranberry Oatmeal Cookie
Calories: 340 | Loved the white chocolate chips!
