CORE Powerfoods

Best for: Affordable high-protein frozen meals for gym-goers and bulking

A frozen, high protein range aimed squarely at gym-goers who want cheap macro-friendly meals without committing to a weekly plan. Best value if you order over $150 at a time to cut the delivery fee, and the long freezer life means you can stock up.

  • High protein across the range, with sampled meals at 35g to 44g per 350g serve
  • Full nutrition panels and ingredient lists published for every meal
  • No lock-in subscription: buy fixed packs or build a custom pack as you go
  • Meals are snap frozen with a 1 to 2 year freezer shelf life, so no weekly delivery pressure
  • Delivery costs $19.95 unless you spend over $150, and WA pays $19.95 regardless
  • Menu is limited to around 25 items and skews heavily to rice and pasta based bodybuilding meals
  • No subscription option, so reordering is manual
  • Orders cannot be altered once payment is made, with cancellations only within 12 hours

Lite n' Easy

Best for: Structured, portion-controlled weight loss with full-day meal plans

A long-running, dietitian-designed option that suits people who want portion-controlled full-day eating for weight loss, or older Australians using Support at Home or NDIS funding. Flexibility is good with no contracts, but you have to dig into the ordering process to work out what you will actually pay per meal.

  • No subscription or lock-in contract: order week to week, or set up automatic weekly or fortnightly deliveries by phone
  • Over 300 meals across breakfast, lunch, dinner, soups, snacks and desserts, with calories and protein shown on every meal
  • Meals designed by Accredited Practising Dietitians, with full-day plans available for structured weight loss
  • Registered NDIS provider and Support at Home partner, with a My Choice range suited to smaller appetites
  • 100% money-back guarantee on your first delivery if you email within 5 days
  • Per-meal pricing is not shown upfront: you need to work through packs and pricing or the ordering system to see real costs
  • Minimum order value of $60.45 plus possible delivery fees
  • Order cut-offs and cancellation periods vary by area rather than a single clear deadline
  • Full-day plans work best if you commit to breakfast and lunch as well, which suits some households more than others
