Ahhh, summer. The season of fresh fruit, long days, and wishing you had a friend with a pool. This year, it’s also about learning how to get back to things we haven’t done in a while. Like socializing without screens or going to meetings that aren’t in our living rooms. And balancing all of the things – while remembering how to behave like a normal person – can be a lottt. Which has many of us hungry for stuff that makes life easier.
Our friends at Daily Harvest have some ideas. Over 90, to be exact. All their food is built on real fruits and vegetables and free of refined sugars, fillers, and preservatives. Aaaand they all come together quickly. Meaning you can live your best, healthiest life and make your taste buds happy minus hours of planning, shopping, and cooking.

A multi-berry smoothie blend that’ll get you glowing…
Thanks to all the antioxidants and omega-3s. Starting your morning with organic cherries, blueberries, raspberries, bananas, acaí, and kale is baaasically guaranteeing a good day. Especially when it’s this easy: fill the cup with the liquid of your choice (pro tip: go with coconut water) and blend. Seriously. That’s it. ($7.99)
Gluten-free, dairy-free ice cream your tummy will appreciate...
Strawberries are a summer staple. Just like frozen treats. Get the best of both worlds with this rippled berry compote complete with dragon fruit, vanilla, and gut-friendly probiotics that’ll keep your digestive system happy. ($8.99 per pint)
A minty, chocolatey blend of plant-based goodness...
This spinach, cashew, banana smoothie may look and taste like a milkshake...but we promise it's healthy. It's even got chlorella, a freshwater algae that studies show could help lower cholesterol and clear toxins from the body. Drink up. ($7.99)
A gluten-free, flavorful flatbread with a kick...
Imagine your fave spicy slice of pizza: tangy sauce, crisp crust, gooey cheese. Then take a bite of this creamy, herby, tomato-y stack and never look back. The Brussels sprouts and pickled peppers really take this to the next level. But it’s the cayenne pepper that brings the heat. Like everything on this list, there are exactly zero preservatives and nothing artificial. ($8.99)
The creamy, salty-sweet indulgence you didn’t know you needed...
If you thought we’d only include one ‘ice cream’ on this list, think again. Who knew Murasaki sweet potatoes could make something so caramel-like? Or that mushrooms could feel right at home in a cone? We won’t judge if you don’t share. ($8.99 per pint)
