4 Best Low-Sodium Meal Delivery Services To Limit Your Daily Salt Intake

Choose from a preset plan or curate your own box of meals from Splendid Spoon's fully vegan lineup. The sippable smoothies are the perfect match for busy mornings spent in traffic, while the noodle bowls make a satiating veggie-based lunch. 

If the overall convenience of grab-n-go is worth it for you, you'll also be relieved to know the entire lineup is GMO-free, gluten-free, and soy-free, as well as low in sugar and sodium. Add the low-sodium filter to take the vetting one step further, which removes any items with more than 12% of your daily sodium value. 

Example Meals: 

- Roasted cauliflower grain bowl (270 mg)

- Tanger ginger noodles (200 mg)

- Butternut turmeric soup (280 mg)

Sustainability & Quality: While Splendid Spoon offers 100% recyclable packaging, only commit if you're ready to adequately rinse and sort it, as items are packaged individually in plastic. The brand has also made huge strides in sustainability since launching: It switched to climacell recyclable insulation, reduced carbon emissions with a new factory, and replaced gel packs with dry ice to reduce waste. 

Cost: From $9 per serving

Whether you're following a keto diet or sticking with a fully plant-based regimen, Fresh n' Lean has you covered. Its lineup of fresh entrées are made from scratch with an average of 600 milligrams per serving—so you can consume breakfast, lunch, and dinner without hitting your daily sodium limit. 

Crafted by professional chefs, these prepackaged meals are entirely gluten-free and delivered fresh. Simply pop in the microwave or oven for a speedy reheat, and prepare to enjoy a variety of nutritious recipes.

Example Meals: 

- Chimichurri braised beef with brown rice and veggies (510 mg) 

- Lentils and herb roasted potatoes with remoulade sauce (470 mg) 

- Romesco salmon with cauliflower and sweet potatoes (470 mg) 

Sustainability & Quality: Expect whole, organic foods in every meal with the service's entirely GMO-free menu. The brand links with suppliers who practice humane animal treatment and make note of sustainably sourced seafood, such as shrimp and salmon. Each single serving arrives in a BPA-free and recyclable tray.

Cost: From $8 per serving

Unlike many other meal delivery services, Magic Kitchen is specifically geared toward older adults. The site is simple to use and easy to filter for specific dietary needs, including low-sodium meals. Also available via phone orders, the menu offers hundreds of premade items including single-serve entrées, snacks, and family plans.

Apply the low-sodium filter to find the best low-sodium options: à la carte items under 400 milligrams or complete entrées with less than 700 milligrams. (Note: Most meals contain less than 500 milligrams.) Plus, you can add additional filters to select recipes that are low in fat or calories, as well as gluten or dairy-free.

Example Meals: 

- Roasted veggie kale salad with chicken

- Chickpea-powered Mediterranean bulgur with zucchini 

- Pesto-spiced shrimp with pesto couscous and blistered tomatoes

Sustainability & Quality: Magic Kitchen aims to use organic ingredients when possible and prioritizes grain-fed beef and hormone-free chicken. While the brand does use dry ice to ship, the coolers used to send the frozen items are not recyclable. The brand's niche service for seniors kept them on the list despite this less environmentally friendly choice. 

Cost: From $10 per serving

Get all the ingredients needed for a low-sodium meal for up to four family members delivered weekly with Sunbasket. The meal delivery kit gives you even more control over your meals, allowing you to omit ingredients with too much sodium as you cook. 

Unfortunately, the brand doesn't have a dedicated low-sodium plan or meal filter. However, the site allows you to scan nutrition labels as you build your box. Another way to bypass salt-heavy meals: Skip to the diabetes-friendly meal plan, which restricts sodium to 700 milligrams. 

 Example meals: 

- Lettuce-wrapped turkey burgers with green goddess dressing and lentil salad (280 mg)

- Herbed chicken thighs with "cheesy" broccoli and tomato-pesto relish (460 mg)

- Seared pork with blueberry-apricot sauce and sautéed greens (105 mg)

Sustainability & quality: Sustainable agriculture is just as important to Sunbasket as environmentally friendly packaging. The brand sources organic and local produce and supports regenerative agriculture practices—so you get quality you can trust.

Cost: From $11 per serving for meal kits
