In following the Paleo Diet, doubtless you’ve experienced at least one or two evenings in which your schedule doesn’t allow you time to get into your kitchen, prep, cook, and then clean. Similarly, scanning through your take-out menus or food delivery apps doesn’t always allow you to locate options compatible with your diet. If you’ve been searching for a solution to those nights of the week when you’ve run out of time to cook nutritious, Paleo-compliant meals, look no further. In Portland especially there are many options for Paleo practitioners looking for food delivery. Below we’ve put together lists of local restaurants and national companies that create meals adhering to Paleo’s grain, dairy, and sugar free requirements. Take a look! There’s bound to be something that suits your tastes.
We cover the following....

National Companies Offering Paleo Meal Delivery to Portland
Because the food scene is Portland is so diverse and interesting, it may seem counterintuitive to order from one of these national companies. However there are many benefits to ordering nationally. Whereas local companies don’t often cater exclusively to Paleo customers, these national companies do. You can be certain the companies listed below source from organic farms, use only grass-fed meat, and high quality rendered fats and oils. These companies also have options for specific Paleo programs like AIP, Whole30, and Wahls Paleo.

Trifecta
While Trifecta, based in northern California, primarily advertises its meal plans (Paleo, Clean Eating, Vegan, and Vegetarian) it also offers consumers the option to purchase a la carte items (sold by the pound) so that you can portion meals yourself.
