Radish Delivers Healthy Personalized Meals To Your Door In 20 Minutes For $10

With the growth of the on-demand food space, it has never been easier to get food delivered in minutes. The problem is often the quality of the food delivered. While it may not be “fast food” quality, it’s not always the healthiest food. A new company called Radish, based in Chicago (and currently only serving Chicago), is delivering personalized, healthy meals straight to your door in 20 minutes, for just $10.

Radish, a mobile app, displays their daily changing menu of 7 healthy dishes to build your own personalized healthy meal. Cooked fresh daily by their Chef David Yusefzadeh (former executive chef at Mario Batali’s fine dining restaurant “Baffo” at Eataly Chicago) and delivered on-demand by their fleet of Radish drivers in just minutes, Radish is turning into the easiest way to eat healthy in Chicago.

The Radish team takes familiar dishes from around the globe that people crave and makes those dishes healthy and fun (i.e. their cauliflower mac and cheese = no carbs, gluten free, and packed with superfoods). Their menu, which changes daily, consists of 2 proteins and 5 vegetables to mix and match to build your personal meal. This makes Radish incredibly flexible and appealing to people with a variety of nutritional and dietary needs (vegetarian, vegan, gluten free, paleo).

For example, if you’ve just come from a workout and need that extra boost of protein, you can order a double portion of their lean, grass fed beef, alongside your vegetables. If you’re on a diet, or just looking to go lighter, you could order less food, or fewer carbs. All of their dishes come in 5 oz containers, allowing the right amount of nutritional and portion control.

I had a chance to catch up with Radish founders, Blake Bible and Joe Andrews, last week to learn about Radish, how they got started, and what 2016 looks like.
