It's delivery day... again... but it's also a special day!!! Today is our very first WEDNESDAY delivery!! Most drivers are already out and delivering thanks to a heroic effort by our kitchen staff to get meals out just 48 hrs after orders were due!
While things were not without chaos, we are confident we made the right choice with our dual delivery system and look forward to hearing how customers like the option of having meals on either Wednesday or Monday.
Another bonus to the system- our Grab & Go will almost never be empty! Stop in and choose from a huge variety of meals!
Starting tomorrow, we will have new hours! We hope that our extended hours will allow more people to pop in either earlier in the morning or a little later in the evening. Our delivery days (Wednesdays and Mondays) will be open until 6 and with our new schedule, there should ALWAYS be a good selection of meals in the Grab & Go cooler! All good things!!!
As for delivery times, especially those for Wednesday, may fluctuate based on when we can get orders fulfilled on Wednesdays- be patient with us as we navigate this new normal!
Mondays are now even BIGGER days at Dinner Dispatch! In addition to delivery day, it is also DEADLINE day! That makes tonight your final chance to get your orders in for meals on either September 11 or September 18th. Get this- you can order tonight and have meals ready for you in about 48 hrs- how crazy!?!
Because of our fast turnaround time, the delivery window fo Wednesday is a little later than Monday- with our goal of having all meals delivered by 7 pm.

Wondering what a prepped meal looks like? These homemade meatballs and seasoned veggies were dumped out onto the sheet pan. Then put into the oven. That’s it. Not pictured- pre-measured rice that cooked while oven was going. Also included- sweet & sour sauce for extra deliciousness! And at a fraction of what 4-6 takeout meals would have cost, these meals are a steal in addition to being a timesaver!!
Want to experience how easy it is? Select the tagged sheet pan meal and get it as soon as Wednesday!
You know what makes the dinnertime problem even more complicated? Trying to make a HEALTHY dinner. 🥕🍅🥗🥑That's why we implemented our Fit 5 tagging system. On all our menu pages, you can filter out meals according to our Fit 5 standards: ✅Low Calories ✅ Gluten Free ✅ Minimally Processed ✅ No Added Sugars ✅ High Protein
And with our Fit 5 icon, you can easily see which meals meet 4 or more standards. Making healthy choices shouldn't be hard. See how we make it easy... and taste how delicious we make it! Our Fitter Choices this week, Maple Garlic Pork Chops w/ Roasted Potatoes and Green Enchilada Chicken Soup, are perfect meals to show how delightful eating healthfully can be!

Making mealtime easy
We knew there was a way to create an affordable meal delivery service that was actually convenient — and thus Dinner Dispatch was born!
You’re busy. Always rushing from one thing to the next. And by the time 5pm comes around, you are in no mood and have no time left to get a healthy meal on the table. That’s where we come in.
We take the hassle of planning, shopping, and prepping dinner off of your plate. Instead, we deliver a customized set of prepped groceries that are ready to cook. And by “cook,” we mean dump into a cooking vessel and turn on the heat. It’s that easy!
We release new meals every other week, and you mix and match your ideal menu from there! Choose 3 or more meals, in either full size (6 servings per dinner) or half-size (3 servings per dinner) sets. Whether you’re dealing with picky eaters, want Whole 30 or vegetarian options, or need to pick meals that you know will be on the table in less than 20 minutes — we have you covered!
