How to customise My Food Bag to your lifestyle

Some weeks, dinner is a leisurely affair. Other weeks, it’s a race against bedtime, football practice and whatever’s left in the fridge. The good news is that you can customise your meal kit to match, so your My Food Bag keeps up with real life, whatever the week throws at you.

How to customise your meal kit

1. Set your ingredient avoidance preferences

Every household has its “not a fan” list. Tell us which ingredients you’d rather avoid, and we’ll show you recipes that suit your preferences. To set them, head to the ‘Subscription’ tab in your account area and click Ingredients to Avoid under Personalisation Settings.

2. Double your protein

Feeding a hungry crew? On select recipes, you can double the protein to make meals stretch further. It’s perfect for big appetites, post-training dinners, or the nights when you want leftovers to sort tomorrow’s lunch.

3. Swap your protein

Fancy a change? On select recipes, you can swap your protein for another option. It’s a simple way to give a family favourite a fresh twist, or to match what your household actually likes to eat. Look for the ‘Customisable’ tag when choosing your recipes and try swapping chicken breast to chicken thigh or fish, pork mince to beef mince, or beef rump to your preferred steak cut.

4. Add Sides or Extras

5. Flex your number of meals to fit your week

No two weeks look the same. Got guests coming? Add more meals. Heading away midweek or keen on a quieter week? Dial it back. You can flex your number of meals anywhere from 3 to 5 nights, so you only get what you need.

6. Skip, change or cancel: because life happens

Skip your delivery

Away for the long weekend or already well stocked? You can skip any week’s delivery before midnight Monday.

Change or cancel your subscription

You’re in control. Change or cancel your subscription any time before midnight Monday each week.

Change your delivery address

Staying at a friend’s or heading to the bach? Update your delivery address before 7pm Tuesday.

However your week looks, dinner should be simple, healthy and delicious. Log in to customise your delivery and make your next bag one that truly fits.
