Low-carb: who is it for?

Eating low-carb means fewer carbohydrates from pasta, rice, potatoes, bread and sugar, and more vegetables and protein. Our low-carb dishes are made for you in these cases.

  • You watch your blood sugar

    Diabetes or prediabetes: fewer carbs at every meal, with the exact amount shown for every dish.

  • You want to avoid the post-meal slump

    Fewer starches, more vegetables and protein: blood sugar rises less after the meal, and you stay full for longer.

  • You keep an eye on your weight

    Calories and carbs are shown for every dish, so you can follow your own targets without weighing or counting.

  • You plan meals around your day

    Low-carb in the evening or on quiet days, balanced or high-protein on active ones: all our dishes come in the same delivery.

Low-carb, with clear benchmarks.

A dish carries our low-carb badge when it meets two conditions: no more than 7 g of carbohydrates per 100 g, and no more than 20% of its calories from carbohydrates. They come in our Low-Carb · 400 g format and combine a source of protein with vegetables, without a starchy side.

28 g at mostof carbohydrates per 400 g low-carb dish

  • The exact values of every dish are on the menu and the label.
  • On the menu, a badge marks every low-carb dish.
  • Big appetite? Add an à la carte portion of protein or vegetables.

With diabetes, our low-carb dishes are a good basis. For a prescribed diet, follow your doctor’s or dietitian’s advice.

What our customers say

Hot from the press

At merciChef, the dishes are prepared so that all you have to do is reheat them, but here the approach is truly innovative.

Low-carb meals: your questions

Practical answers before the first order.

What is a low-carb dish at merciChef?

A dish with no more than 7 g of carbohydrates per 100 g, or 28 g per 400 g, in which carbohydrates provide no more than 20% of the calories. Usually, vegetables replace the starchy side, around a source of protein. On the menu, a badge marks these dishes.

How many carbs does a dish contain?

No more than 28 g in a 400 g dish; the exact amount depends on the recipe. It is on the menu and on the label, with protein, fat and calories.

Are your dishes suitable for keto?

Not necessarily. Low-carb and keto are not the same thing: a ketogenic diet usually limits carbohydrates further. Compare each dish’s values with your own targets.

Are your dishes suitable for people with diabetes?

Yes, our low-carb dishes are a good fit if you have diabetes: they contain no more than 28 g of carbohydrates per 400 g dish, usually with vegetables instead of a starchy side. Each dish shows its carbohydrates and sugars on the menu and on the label, so they are easy to count. If you are on treatment, your doctor can tell you how to fit them into your meals.

Are your low-carb dishes a weight-loss programme?

No, and we don’t promise weight loss. Every dish shows its calories, which helps you follow your own targets. For a weight goal, a health professional can advise you.

Is there a subscription?

No. You can order once, or switch on regular deliveries with no minimum period: each week, you choose your dishes or we select them based on your saved preferences. Until the deadline, 11.59pm six days before delivery, you can change, skip or pause a delivery. An order locked for preparation remains payable.

Do the dishes arrive hot? How long do they keep?

They arrive cooked and chilled, never frozen. In the fridge, they keep for up to a week depending on the delivery day and the date on the label (4–5 days for stock dishes delivered on Thursday). Then simply heat a portion, about three minutes in the microwave, following the label, which also lists ingredients and allergens.

How much do the dishes and delivery cost?

Each dish shows its price on the menu. Delivery charges depend on the address and the delivery method chosen, and the total is shown before you confirm. There is no subscription fee.

Choose your first dishes.

No subscription, pause at any time. Pay by invoice, card or TWINT.
