The Best AIP Meal Delivery Services for Beginners

Paleo On The Go is all about crafting paleo and AIP-compliant meals so you can get on with your diet without completely missing out on foods you love. The savory meals rely heavily on animal proteins, root vegetables, and substitute ingredients like rice tortillas, but that doesn’t mean there’s not a lot to choose from with dishes like smoked pork carnitas tacos with “pico” and cauliflower “rice” or Greek lamb moussaka. There’s even an assortment of AIP-focused baked goods, both sweet and savory, so you’ll be able to enjoy a chicken potpie or try out a vanilla chai donut if you like. 

• Homemade chicken potpie
• Bacon apple chicken burger with maple cranberry sauce and collard greens with smoky bacon
• Coq au vin with herb-mashed Japanese white sweet potatoes
• Salisbury steak with mushroom gravy and onion confit cauliflower mash 
• Moo shoo pork tacos
• German brats with sauerkraut and home-fried potatoes
• Polish stuffed cabbage rolls
• Thai basil shrimp

While there aren’t necessarily AIP-specific meals from Green Chef, there are plenty of options that would be easily customizable at home to make them work, and it may be worth the convenience and quality to give it a look. By omitting a crema or pistachio topping, you can enjoy dishes like Middle Eastern-style beef bowls with cauliflower rice, or turkey coconut curry soup. As you incorporate ingredients and exit the “elimination phase,” we think Green Chef is also a delicious option to grow into, with quality ingredients like house-made spice blends and organic produce. 

• Harissa-spiced shrimp 
• Sesame ginger bavette steak and shrimp 
• Middle Eastern-style chickpea bowls 
• Maple-glazed carrots with figs

While enjoying your favorite restaurants and takeout spots while on an AIP protocol may seem out of reach, CookUnity is an incredible substitute option. You can easily find alternatives to meet your dietary needs with a menu that rivals your favorite local eateries and search filters for paleo, gluten-free, dairy-free, soy-free, and more. Enjoy meals like slow-roasted cod with bell peppers and micro greens or garlic hanger steak with vegetables and cilantro-avocado sauce, always delivered fresh to your front door.

• Coconut lime hanger steak
• Carnitas street tacos
• Butternut squash ravioli
• Chili-roasted shrimp

Pete’s Real Food specializes in multiple diet-friendly meals, including paleo and AIP-friendly plans. The focus here is not just on eliminating undesired ingredients but also on prioritizing a culinary experience with seasonal and locally sourced ingredients, chef-crafted flavors, and meals that are delivered fresh for maximum enjoyment. We recommend the mix-and-match options with the AIP filter to view what Pete’s has to offer. 

• Grilled chicken with sautéed cabbage and green goddess potato salad
• Chicken chili with oven-roasted tomatoes and spaghetti squash
• Beef stroganoff over sweet potato noodles
• Chicken meatballs with cauliflower mash and sweet potato fries
• Turkey burgers with lemon garlic asparagus and roasted purple potato wedges

Trifecta’s meal plans are designed to be a no-brainer; pick your plan and how many meals you want per week, and the rest is on autopilot. We recommend checking out the paleo plan as a starting point for those who want AIP-friendly meals. While the experts are choosing meals for you on the various plans, that may mean you’ll need to indicate other ingredients you want to avoid, or you can select the meal prep option where you choose your protein and sides for yourself. 

• Kung pao grilled chicken with broccoli and roasted sweet potato
• Beef skillet with roasted sweet potato and marinated cabbage
• Herb-roasted cod with walnut basil pesto and vegetables
• Slow-cooked rosemary thyme beef with root vegetables
• Salmon Mexican bowl with tomato salsa and vegetables
• Ginger shrimp with herb-marinated sweet potato
• Cajun chicken andouille sausage and roasted vegetables

The paleo plan from Fresh N Lean is a great place to start if you’re looking for protein-packed options while undertaking the AIP diet. The paleo plan is free from grains, dairy, gluten, and added sugars, and while you may need to avoid certain common ingredients like seeds, you can easily do this during meal selection. Meals arrive every Friday, but you can adjust to a later date if you prefer, and this service is one of the few that’s accessible across all 50 states. 

• Grilled shrimp with caper dill aioli and roasted winter squash
• Moroccan mint grass-fed steak with spiced cauliflower and brown rice
• Tikka chicken with turmeric-roasted cauliflower and quinoa
• BBQ turkey meatballs with white beans
• Cajun salmon with Yukon potato and tomato rice

Meals from Sunbasket are not only enticing from a flavor perspective but also bring a lot to the table for those following an AIP-specific diet. While you may want to initially omit certain ingredients like nuts and seeds until you can determine if those are problematic foods, quite a few meals from Sunbasket’s paleo-style kits will work with the protocol. We love the sound of the Mediterranean-style halibut with artichoke hearts and olives, or a chipotle butternut squash stew with chorizo, especially if the prep is made that much easier with a meal kit. 

Meal Kits

• Sea scallops over fresh fettuccine with sun-dried tomatoes and spinach
• Snapper with romesco, vegetables, and almonds

Meals from The Good Kitchen start out free of gluten, refined sugar, dairy, and soy, giving you a great starting point for following AIP protocols. Selecting either the “Whole30” or “Paleo” filters will narrow down the options further, and from there you can select meals that work for wherever you’re at in your diet journey. If you need to include additional allergen avoidances, simply head to your dashboard and enter your “ingredients to avoid” in any upcoming deliveries.
