Best Factor Meals Ranked – Taste Test Review
If you’ve ever considered trying Factor Meals, you’re not alone. With more people looking for healthier, ready-to-eat options that don’t sacrifice flavor, Factor (also known as Factor75) has become a favorite in the meal delivery world. But with so many choices on the menu each week, how do you know which ones are worth it? That’s where this taste test review comes in. I personally tried a range of Factor meals and ranked the best ones based on flavor, texture, and overall satisfaction.
Here’s what you need to know and which meals deserve a spot in your fridge.
1. Creamy Sun-Dried Tomato Chicken – 9.5/10
This one took the crown. The chicken breast was juicy and tender, perfectly paired with a rich, sun-dried tomato cream sauce. The cauliflower mash on the side was buttery and didn’t feel like a low-carb sacrifice. This dish felt like a cheat meal without actually being one. Perfect for those on keto or low-carb diets.
Why it’s great:
- Restaurant-quality taste
- Rich and comforting without being heavy
- Low in carbs, high in protein
2. Keto Chorizo Chili – 9/10
This one surprised me. I wasn’t expecting a chili to be this flavorful in a microwaveable meal, but Factor nailed it. The chorizo gave it a smoky, spicy kick, and the portion size was generous. If you like bold flavors and a bit of spice, this is your go-to.
Why it’s great:
- Spicy, bold flavors
- High-protein, keto-friendly
- Filling and satisfying
3. Peanut Buddha Bowl – 8.8/10
Vegetarian meals sometimes miss the mark, but the Peanut Buddha Bowl was a winner. It’s packed with plant-based protein, colorful veggies, and a creamy peanut sauce that ties everything together. Served over brown rice and edamame, it’s both nourishing and flavorful.
Why it’s great:
- Excellent plant-based option
- Tastes fresh and healthy
- Great texture variety with crunch and softness
4. Peruvian-Spiced Ground Beef Bowl – 8.5/10
This bowl brings Latin flavor with a kick. The ground beef is seasoned with Peruvian spices and served with roasted vegetables and cilantro-lime cauliflower rice. Everything blends well, and the spice level is just right not too mild, not too fiery.
- Great for spice lovers
- Low-carb but filling
- Flavorful beef with vibrant sides
5. Truffle Butter Filet Mignon – 8.2/10
- Gourmet flavor at home
- Rich, creamy sauce
- High in protein and upscale ingredients
6. Chicken Tikka Masala – 8/10
- Warm, flavorful spices
- Great comfort food option
- Generous sauce-to-rice ratio
7. Three Cheese Chicken Alfredo – 7.8/10
- Very satisfying comfort meal
- High protein with cheesy goodness
- Kids and adults will both love it
8. Vegetarian Mushroom Risotto – 7.5/10
- Creamy and comforting
- Deep umami flavor from mushrooms
- Vegetarian-friendly
9. Smoky BBQ Chicken – 7.3/10
The smoky barbecue sauce is delicious, and the chicken is tender, but the side of green beans can feel a little plain. It’s a solid meal, just not as exciting as others on the list. Still, it’s a nice option when you want something familiar and protein-heavy.
Why it’s great:
- Classic BBQ flavor
- Simple and satisfying
- Low-calorie, high-protein
10. Greek Yogurt Cheesecake – 7/10
Okay, this isn’t a meal, but it’s one of Factor’s best desserts. The texture is creamy and smooth, and the crust is surprisingly good. It’s not overly sweet, which makes it a guilt-free indulgence after a savory meal. Great if you’re tracking macros but still want a treat.
- Guilt-free dessert
- Balanced sweetness
- High in protein
Final Thoughts: What Makes a Factor Meal Great?
After trying over 20 meals, a few key things stood out. First, the quality of the protein is impressive. Whether it’s chicken, steak, or plant-based alternatives, the texture and seasoning are consistently on point. Second, the sauces elevate each dish they’re well-balanced, not too salty, and full of real ingredients. Lastly, the meals don’t taste “microwaved,” which is rare for heat-and-eat options.
Of course, taste is subjective. Some people may prefer milder meals, while others crave spice and bold flavors. That’s the beauty of Factor’s rotating menu you can mix and match based on your preferences and goals (keto, calorie-smart, vegetarian, etc.).
Bonus: Tips for Getting the Best Out of Factor Meals
- Use the oven or air fryer when possible for crispier textures.
- Add fresh herbs or a squeeze of lemon to brighten the flavor.
- Keep your top meals bookmarked so you can reorder them when they rotate back.
- Don’t sleep on the add-ons like smoothies, juices, and desserts they’re often just as tasty as the meals themselves.
Conclusion
Factor makes it easy to eat healthy without sacrificing flavor or spending hours in the kitchen. Whether you’re keto, low-carb, plant-based, or just want better meals fast, there’s something here for you. Based on our taste test, the Creamy Sun-Dried Tomato Chicken, Keto Chorizo Chili, and Peanut Buddha Bowl are absolute standouts. But the beauty of Factor is the variety there’s always something new to try.
