Delicious & nutritious

Vegetarian food deserves the same care as every other dish: good ingredients, careful seasoning and proper cooking. Compare the nutrition of each recipe, from tofu and Planted to pulses, eggs and cheese.

Your appetite, your preferences

Choose a 400 g or 500 g balanced portion, or an available low-carb recipe. Save individual preferences so the vegetarian and meat-eating members of your household can share one delivery.

New reasons to enjoy vegetables

Our chefs draw on hundreds of recipes per year across the whole menu. The vegetarian selection changes each week: comforting classics, fragrant curries, Mediterranean flavours and more. Vegetarian recipes may contain eggs or dairy; use the vegan preference for plant-only choices.

Believe in the power of plants

More plants in everyday life, without starting every meal from scratch. Our chefs combine vegetables with grains, pulses and different vegetarian proteins, using sauces and spices to keep the menu interesting.

Add a soup or à la carte portions, then save your preferences for regular selections. Availability depends on the week and your exclusions; a narrower profile may mean fewer different dishes.

More plants, more flavour, less effort.

"Not only have the vegetarian options been good but they’ve been tasty. merciChef has saved me so much time and effort" — Bev

"We’re very happy with the meals & service. I appreciate that there are vegetarian meals based on planted chicken or beyond meat since I’m not a huge tofu fan" — Wynand
"Really liked the food, it was tasty, healthy & the portion size was good. It’s super convenient and saves me so much time and energy" — Nicole
