Yumble Kids February 2020 Review
Our Yumble Kids box arrived in the afternoon on a winter day, but my husband brought it inside so it sat on our counter for a few hours. When I opened it, thankfully, all of the food was still cold!
Yumble Kids focuses on tasty, nutritious meals that you don't have to cook!
After opening the box, we found some welcome information and stickers.
I also noticed that everything in this box can be recycled, including the meal trays, meal sleeves, and ice packs. And of course, we always recycle our brown cardboard boxes.
After lifting the brown cardboard insert, this is what we saw. There was a blue silicone place mat sitting on top of our meals.
And here, you can see the first set of meals.
The welcome packet had a lot of info.
These meals will stay fresh for a full 7 days in my fridge. Also, the trays that the meals come in are 100% recyclable (and convenient, fewer dishes to wash!). Before our box came, I let my daughter choose what meals she wanted to eat and share with her younger brothers.
Joanna is Yumble's Founder and I agree with her mission of saving more time for busy moms! There is nothing more precious than time with your little ones and time for yourself.
If you share your mealtime moments with @YumbleKids, tag a friend, and follow them, you can score a free box for yourself and your friend. Just visit yumblekids.com/freeboxfriday.
Here's a closer look at the silicone no-slip place mat. This place mat will surely help protect my wooden kitchen table, and is perfect for little ones who may have a hard time keeping their plate on the table. 🙂
This place mat is the first of 4 free gifts that you get when you subscribe to Yumble Kids. You will also get blue kid-sized utensils, a perfectly sized plate for your kids meals, and a Bento sized lunch box with a divider that is perfect for Yumble Kids meals. These free gifts are so fun!
All 4 gifts are over $50 in value!
Now, I'll show you what we got in our Yumble Kids box! Each of these meals required only 45-90 seconds of cooking in the microwave, after piercing the plastic seal with a fork. They were that easy to prepare and serve.
You can also get a sense of what is in the meals with the detailed ingredient list and nutrition info.
1. Perfect Pizza Bagel & Veggies
This meal has a whole wheat pizza bagel, pepperoni, and vegetables. This meal is 390 calories, 36 g of carbs, and only 4 g of sugar. This meal's common allergens were listed on the package as wheat and milk.
This meal was also a hit with my son. He said the cheese tasted really fresh and he also ate every morsel of the pea and corn mix.
2. Chicken Marinara & Alfredo
This meal has chicken nuggets, cheese, and marinara sauce with creamy alfredo sauce with gluten free pasta. This meal is 340 calories, 29 g of carbs, and only 4 g of sugar. This meal's common allergens were listed on the package as eggs and milk.
I didn't know that Yumble Kids had gluten free pasta! We have a gluten allergy in our household, so this is an extra bonus for us.
I have to say that this meal was one of my son's favorite meals. He really loved the yummy alfredo sauce and gobbled up the chicken nuggets in marinara sauce.
3. Creamy Mac N Trees
This meal has gluten free pasta in a cauliflower cheese sauce with Parmesan broccoli. This meal is 280 calories, 32 g of carbs, and only 3 g of sugar. This meal's common allergens were listed on the package as eggs and milk.
This mac and cheese didn't taste like your typical Kraft variety, but my son did like it.
4. Vegetarian Bean Burrito
This mean has a bean, cheese, and rice burrito with a side of corn. This meal is 230 calories, 35 g of carbs, and only 3 g of sugar. This meal's common allergens were listed on the package as wheat and milk.
My son also loved this burrito and would definitely want to have this meal again in the future.
5. Mac N Cheese & Nuggets Please
This meal had regular gluten free mac and cheese with chicken nuggets. This meal is a classic with kids and we often serve this kind of meal on our own. This meal is 420 calories, 43 g of carbs, and only 3 g of sugar. This meal's common allergens were listed on the package as eggs and milk.
My son also loved the creaminess of the mac and cheese and said the chicken nuggets tasted really fresh!
6. Classic Cheese Ravioli
This meal had cheese ravioli in veggie marinara with green beans. I love that there are vegetarian options with Yumble Kids. This meal is 210 calories, 28 g of carbs, and only 4 g of sugar. This meal's common allergens were listed on the package as wheat, eggs, and milk.
My son also adored this ravioli. We stopped serving Chef Boyardee ravioli a long time ago, and having this fresh ravioli gave me piece of mind that I was serving a meal with no preservatives and healthy ingredients.
In Summary
Yumble Kids is a great service that sends you delicious meals for your little ones. I really like how clean the ingredients lists were on each of these meals (many organic and low-sugar ingredients) and they were so easy to prepare! I could see stocking these in my fridge as an easy way to have a ready-made lunch for my kids to take to daycare or school. I would say that the meal serving sizes are for kids ages toddler to elementary age.
I also appreciate the careful allergen labeling and avoidance of nuts in all of the meals and gluten in some of the meals. Since I was able to choose my meals before the box shipped, I knew what I was getting ahead of time so I'm assuming you can customize your box based on a picky eater or food allergies.
