Great taste and nice menu
Just got my first order. I really like the healing turmeric soup and bodhi bol. I didn’t think plant based meals could be so tasty. Definitely ordering a bigger plan so my partner can try.

Eco-wrecking packaging, ridiculously small portions, bland food
Got our first box from Soulara, with 12 meals. It was immediately a hard NO from us, based on the packaging alone:
- Shiny silver cardboard box, like something rapper bling would arrive in
- Silver lined bubble wrap
- Plastic everything inside
They should definitely use standard cardboard boxes and fibre packaging. Where plastic is 100% unavoidable, use plant plastic (e.g. I've seen chip packets made of home compostable plant plastic)
Awful packaging aside...

Love how convenient the meals are!!!
I have been eating Soulara's plant based meals for months now, and am so impressed with how delicious and convenient they are! The range of breakfast, lunches, dinner and snacks are great, and I love the variety in flavours as well. I also love that they come at the same time every friday so I exactly when to expect them and plan out my meals for the week ahead.

Delicious!
Food is delicious! Fresh like I'd made it myself but probably tastier. So great for starting out with a plant-based diet. Portions are little (but not unhealthily so - I eat too much) so great for portion control.

Love the variety and convenience
I’m 3 months in to my plant-based diet and I feel great. I like the convenience of the subscription-based service and how I can pick my meals each week. My favourite dish is the nirvana carbonara and I also like the cold pressed juices.

Healthy, tasty but also plant-based as well!
Soulara has found a way to make plant-based food taste so good that I can't go back! I have lost 10 kgs in 2 months alone. There is now breakfast options which mean there is no need to skip those morning meals :)

Just amazing both service and meals are amazing
First week of starting a new journey and trying the Plant base meals for the first time. The service you've provided and the meals I've had so far is just amazing, you made it so easy and I'm happy to pass my news around. Loved the meals I had so far, from breakfast, lunch and tea. Thank you

Plant-based Perfection!!
I've always wanted to try out a plant-based diet, but I've always found it too expensive to commit. Soulara has made this so much easier! I'm so surprised at how much I enjoy the meals. I've never been the biggest meat eater and the meals do not make me miss meat at all! I especially love their puddings, their Good Morning Matcha has to be one of my favs! The Bodhi Bol definitely makes the top of the list, plant-based pasta! Who wouldn't love that?!
I do wish you had the option to add EXTRA snacks or juices, because I am obsessed with their c...Read more
old pressed juices. The green one in particular! Overall, I would definitely recommended this to anyone who is looking to make the switch. There are so many options that it makes transitioning to a vegan diet easy :)Similar opinion? Write a review on ieatwords.com.au!

Great variety
Never bored with Soulara. I recently switched from a non vegan meal delivery and find these meals so much more flavorful. I’m obsessed with the curry options like the palak tofu and coconut dahl.

Love the healthy ingredients in these meals, it’s cool to be able to eat carbonara again as a vegan. Keen to try the Choco Delights next time as they look so good!

Fixed most of my life's problems
I never really like meal services because they just didnt taste right like i always found youfoodz too sweet and it just didnt feel home cooked. And the meat in meal delivery is always gross to me. I'm not vegan but i wanted to try a vegan meal service because i thought they would keep better through the week and have more vegetables which i really needed in my diet. I didnt expect though that they would be so good ! They are really tasty and satisfying, easy to digest and i have a lot more energy in the afternoons when i have one of these meal...Read more
s for lunch. You can tell that they use really good ingredients and they are actually made by cooks who know what they're doing its not just a bunch of sugar and salt with random ingredients, each meal has balanced flavours and ingredients that actually go together. I was really struggling to fit in 3 meals a day and wasnt eating enough but these meals have helped me hold my weight better and have a lot more energy and i just look and feel healthier all round. And i love choosing the meals on the website, its so easy and if you want to skip a week or stop getting them all together you just click one button. So yes, would highly recommend Soulara it's really helped me a lot.Similar opinion? Write a review on ieatwords.com.au!

Amazing food!
I ordered a range of Mels. Breaky, lunch, dinners and snack desserts. All have been delicious. I have added more lemon/line, chilli flakes and salt/pepper to each meal to customise to my preference but the meals are full off flavour. High quality ingredients and customer service is great. You do need to meet their cut off for ordering though and if you miss it they won't be able to continue the service so can't depend on it as a regular service which is disappointing. Serving sizes are on the small side.

Makes staying healthy easy
As a new mum it’s been hard setting into taking care of a newborn, but Soulara has made it a lot easier to stay healthy and not reach for junk food. I’m glad to be getting the nutrients I need while breastfeeding and best of all - the meals are delicious! Love starting the day with the blue granola bowl. Thanks Soulara!

Unreasonable and poor customer service
I placed an order at 9:51am and I accidentally used the wrong Credit Card, I contacted straight away via live chat at 9:52am to request a refund so I could straight away reorder using a different card. Was told there is no way they could refund (yes even two minutes after due to a mistake). They don't even have a phone service. Use Garden of Vegan instead. DO NOT USE Soulara

Really good!
I've been trying to eat less meat and cook more meat free dishes at home, but it's hard to get the flavour combinations right like Soulara does. I'm also a mum with twin bubs, so Soulara is soo convenient and so much better for me and my husband than takeout

Delicious and convenient
They really are very healthy and convenient. Nirvana carbonara and bodhi bol have been my favourite so far. I've had good experience with their customer service. I work long hours so is great for me to just be able heat something tasty and nutritious up with no dishes to deal with afterwards. I like that you can pick exactly what meals you want each week and I dont have items sitting in my pantry for months waiting to be used. No wastage.

Tasty meals however was disappointed
The meals are tasty and healthy however, we cancelled our membership because they don't take the boxes for recycling or re-use on orders. It's a huge waste and we are tired of having to discard boxes. Quite disappointing. Maybe they need to work out a better way for delivery of orders

Sceptical to completely in love with one meal
I was very sceptical... but decided this was the only way I could try a plant based diet as i had no idea how i would go about it as I had always been a meat and 3 veg kinda girl... i thought that if I didn't like it I could cancel it. Well I got my delivery this morning and I had the celestial chickpea detox bowl for lunch... it look amazingly fresh and bright with all its colours but I wasn't sure it would fill me... I'm not a small eater or a small girl at the moment (hopefully this will slowly start changing) but It was perfect.... all the ...Read more

Questions & Answers

What is Soulara doing to:
- Fix tiny portion sizes?

- Not use any plastics or foil in the packaging?
I'd love a service that provided proper meals, and didn't cost the Earth (double meaning intended!)

Hi David,
I hope you are well and thank you kindly for sharing your thoughts.
Your feedback is incredibly important to us and the team have taken these into consideration.
We have increased some of our meals portion sizes to 400 grams, however, we appreciate that each individual requires more or less. This is in review to ensure that we can further maximise our customer's experience.
In terms of the taste and presentation of our food, our production team are working closely with our local Australian suppliers, expert nutritionists and QA officer during these uncharted times to ensure we continue to use fresh ingredients and produce high-quality meals. We also aim to review our menu on a fortnightly basis and upload a new meal every 2 weeks.
The team also appreciate your concerns regarding the use of plastic in our packaging. We use biodegradable packaging that can be recycled, placed with your general waster, or composted. The containers are 90% biodegradable which means that over time all the packaging decomposes except for 10% of the inorganic plastic material. We try to minimise the impact the use of plastic has by using BPA free, directly recyclable plastic manufactured through a 30% cleaner process than other methods. We are actively looking into phasing out our plastic packaging in the coming months and switching over to even more biodegradable alternatives.
Thank you again for taking the time to send through your questions.
