Dairy-free food boxes
Dairy-free is easier to cater for than gluten-free, but the simplest route is a box that is dairy-free by default rather than one where you avoid certain recipes.
Best dairy-free options
- Mindful Chef - every recipe is dairy-free (and gluten-free) by default.
- Grubby and allplants - fully plant-based, so dairy-free throughout.
- Mainstream kits like Gousto let you filter for dairy-free recipes.
