Pros and cons
Pros
- Prepared meals, diet meals and breakfast all come from prepared meals, diet meals and breakfast, so nothing needs prepping at home.
- A menu of 70 recipes sits above the prepared-meal-delivery median of 45.
- Skipping is allowed at any time, which most brands in 33 at the site also allow.
- The introductory plan takes 30% off, a bigger cut than the site median price of €13.15 suggests is typical.
- Support runs on email, chat and phone, covering the phone channel that only 56.2% of the prepared-meal group provides.
Cons
- AU is the only market, so anyone outside Australia gets no delivery.
- Price per serving of AUD 10.95 ranks 7 of 21, so cheaper plans sit elsewhere on the site.
- Diets cover vegan, keto and low calorie but skip vegetarian as a named option, which 80% of this group does list.
- Product types are prepared meals, diet meals and breakfast without desserts, a line both HelloFresh and Hungryroot carry.
Who it suits
- Households in AU who want prepared meals delivered and cannot spare time to cook.
- Fitness-led eaters looking for keto, low-calorie, high-protein and vegan choices from vegan, keto and low calorie.
- Families who want a wide menu of 70 recipes and the option to skip a delivery.
Who should look elsewhere
- Households outside AU, where delivery does not reach.
- Cooks who want raw ingredients to prepare, since prepared meals, diet meals and breakfast are all ready to eat.
- Anyone after a dessert range, which HelloFresh and Hungryroot list and prepared meals, diet meals and breakfast does not.
How it compares on our data
Against the brands the site tracks, My Muscle Chef sits mid-table on both money and choice. On price per serving it places 7 of 21, so cheaper prepared-meal plans do exist there, though the gap to the €5.81 lower quartile is modest. On menu size it does better, ranking 6 of 19 on recipes per week, ahead of the prepared-meal-delivery median of 45 and comfortably past the 35 lower quartile of the same group. Read the two ranks together and the trade-off is plain: this is a broad menu at a fair rather than a cheap price. The overall score of 9.3 out of ten sits on firmer ground for offer than for cost, where the cost part of 9.4 carries the weight.
Core features
The menu is the main draw. Meal plans run to 70 recipes, which clears the prepared-meal-delivery median of 45 and the site median of 45 by a clear margin, and sits well above the 35 lower quartile. Pricing at entry is the second lever: a plan takes 30% off, against a site median starting price of €13.15 and a median entry price of €8.76 for this group. Renewal terms are not published in the same way, so treat the discount as an entry price rather than a standing rate. Flexibility is the third feature and it is the plainest of the three: skipping is allowed at any time, matching 96.8% of the brands in this group.
The company behind it
My Muscle Chef has been trading since 2013 under the legal name My Muscle Chef Pty Ltd, with its headquarters in Australia. That age matters for a delivery service, since it means the kitchens and courier network predate most newer entrants. Support is the part that stacks up well against the group: email, chat and phone covers email, chat, phone and a help centre, and phone support is the one that stands out, since only 56.2% of brands in this category provide it, against 100% for a help centre and 34.4% for chat. The trust part of the score of 9.2 reflects that breadth of contact options.

Frequently asked questions
How much does My Muscle Chef cost per serving?+
The plan runs at AUD 10.95 per serving, which places the brand 7 of 21 on the site. That sits below the €13.15 site median and below the €8.76 median entry price for prepared-meal delivery. Discounts on top of that headline rate are worth checking at signup.
Is there an introductory discount on My Muscle Chef plans?+
Yes, 30% comes off the introductory offer, which is the entry price most new customers see. Treat it as a joining rate rather than a renewal rate, and compare the standard price against the €8.76 median entry price of the wider group before committing to a long subscription.
How many recipes does My Muscle Chef offer each week?+
The meal plans list 70 recipes, which ranks the brand 6 of 19 on the site. That is above the 45 median for prepared-meal delivery and above the 45 site median, so choice is the stronger side of this offer.
Can I skip a My Muscle Chef delivery?+
Skipping is allowed at any time, which is the flexibility most readers look for first. Nearly all brands in this category allow it, at 96.8%, so skipping is now the baseline rather than a differentiator when you compare.
Where does My Muscle Chef deliver?+
Delivery runs in AU only, and the company is headquartered in Australia. Anyone based outside that market is out of scope, and it makes My Muscle Chef a single-market option compared with services shipping more widely. The legal entity behind it is My Muscle Chef Pty Ltd.
What kinds of meals does My Muscle Chef sell?+
The range covers prepared meals, diet meals and breakfast, so everything arrives prepared rather than as raw ingredients. HelloFresh and Hungryroot both list meal-kit lines as well, which suits readers who still want to cook part of the week. Soylent is the closest match, with prepared meals and breakfast.
Which diets does My Muscle Chef support?+
Diet options include vegan, keto and low calorie, which covers vegan, keto, low-calorie and high-protein eating. Vegetarian is not named in the listed diets, though 80% of brands in this group do offer it, so vegetarians may need to check individual recipes rather than a filter.
How do I contact My Muscle Chef support?+
Support runs on email, chat and phone, so email, chat, phone and a help centre are all available. Phone stands out, with only 56.2% of brands in this category offering it, and a help centre is near universal at 100%. That breadth backs the trust part of the score of 9.2.
How long has My Muscle Chef been trading?+
The company was founded in 2013 and trades as My Muscle Chef Pty Ltd, based in Australia. That record is longer than most newer delivery entrants among the 33 brands compared in this category, which matters when you weigh kitchen and courier reliability.
