Meal Information
What is the average nutritional information for a Mindful Meals entrée?
Because our focus is on lean meats and fresh, fiber-rich vegetables, we are able to keep our calorie, fat and carbohydrate counts low, while maximizing protein and vitamins.
Maximum Nutritional Counts (in grams) for each meal*
| Calories | Less than 550 |
| Protein | 25-40g |
| Carbohydrates | Less than 40g Net Carbs** |
| Total Fat | Less than 30 g |
* There are some entrees, those containing whole grains, potatoes or rice that may exceed the 40g Net Carbs. These meals will be offered sparingly and will be accompanied by another daily meal with a significantly lower net carb count.
** Net Carbohydrates = Total carbohydrates – Fiber
How are the meals packaged to ensure freshness?
All meals are packed in BPA-Free microwaveable containers with close-fitting lids. The containers are then packed into insulated cooler bags with cold packs.
Each individual meal is labeled with nutritional information, heating instructions and expiration dates. The containers are oven-safe up to 250 F, but we recommend transferring the food to a more oven-safe dish should you choose to heat the entrée this way.
What is the shelf-life of the meals?
We recommend the meals be enjoyed within 3 days of your delivery to ensure the best taste and quality. While not ideal, the meals can be frozen for up to 2 weeks if you are not able to enjoy them within the first 3 days. Simply defrost in the refrigerator overnight and follow the labels’ heating instructions as normal.
How do I heat my meals?
Most of our meals heat wonderfully in the microwave. We recommend removing the entrees plastic lid and covering the meal with a paper towel. Most meals take between 1 ½- 2 minutes to heat completely through. Every now and then we will recommend a meal be rewarmed in a preheated oven for optimum quality.
Delivery
What is the Mindful Meal delivery area?
We are currently delivering to the Greater Central Florida area (please refer to our Delivery Area link for more detailed information).
You can have your meals dropped at one of our Preferred Delivery locations or to your home. If you are unsure if we deliver to your area, please contact us at 407-280-0498 or email us customerservice@mindfulmealdelivery.com
What is a Preferred Delivery location?
We are pleased to have partnered with various gyms and locations throughout Central Florida who have the same like-minded thoughts on health and nutrition as we do. These locations will serve as drop-off points between 3 and 6pm on Mondays and Wednesdays. Delivery to these locations afford you a $5/day discount that is reflected in the plans pricing.
Can I receive delivery directly to my home?
Yes, we do offer a home delivery option as well. The delivery fee for home drop-offs is included in the home delivery plan pricing.
When will I receive my first delivery?
If you place your order before 3pm Friday, your first order will be delivered the following Monday.
At what time of day can I expect my meals to arrive?
Depending on the meal plan you choose, your meals will be delivered on Monday, Wednesday or both days.
Preferred Delivery Locations will receive coolers between 3-6pm
Home Delivery Locations will receive coolers between 3-7pm
What do I do with my cooler bag and ice pack for each delivery?
You are responsible for leaving your cooler bag and ice pack out at your drop-off location for our driver to exchange with the next order.
For Home Delivery, this would mean leaving the cooler in the same location it was dropped off at the previous delivery day. Our drivers will leave cooler bags on the front doorstep unless you notify us to leave in a different location such as a Back or Side Door.
For Preferred Delivery Locations, there will be a designated bin marked “Mindful Meals” where you can leave your cooler bags.
Each cooler bag will be clearly marked with the clients name to ensure you can keep track of your own coolers.
A $5 charge will be added to your account if the cooler is not left for the delivery driver.
Is there a charge for the cooler bag and ice pack?
No. You do not have to pay a fee to buy the coolers. However, you are responsible to keep them damage free and to return them to Mindful Meals should you cancel your membership. If a cooler bag needs to be replaced due to client negligence or is not returned at the conclusion of your membership, your account will be charged $15.

When and how will I be charged for my meal plan?
