My parents need microwaveable meals delivered. We tried one place, but they didn’t like the meals. Any suggestions for other places would be helpful. They are not loving the Wegmans prepared meals either and my siblings and I cannot always make them dinner.
great ideas offered already with restaurant take out, etc. I can suggest that the Foodsaver machine ( sucks air out of the plastic bag) will keep food fresher longer in fridge- months. If you can order many things and then "shrink wrap" them in food saver, then you don't have to order so often. Probably able to even shrink wrap it along with the microwavable plate if they cant put food on their own plates new. Just cut the plastic on a side and the air opens it and food comes out easily.
I'd also suggest meal subscription plans, like Freshly. I orderly Freshly for 6 weeks for my husband when I was away once and he really liked it. The meals come fully prepared and all you have to do is microwave them. They provide a wide choices of meals.

In our area there are several locally owned businesses that offer freshly made meals that can be used within a few days or frozen for later. Because they are not shipped they are not limited to certain ingredients and don't have added preservatives. Some even use fresh local ingredients. I can place an online or phone order then pick up or simply go in and select whatever is available from their cooler or freezer. Their menu changes weekly so there is a variety but they keep the popular items on the menu as well. Some even offer a delivery service. Some restaurants and grocery stores have begun offering the service as well... it is one of the positive things that came from the pandemic. Because most are small businesses they don't widely advertise so I am always looking for the next best choice.
I know these aren't available everywhere but here is a sample of where I get mine to give you some ideas and hopefully you can find similar businesses in your area.
