Many meal kit subscription services have amazing, healthy options for busy people who eat meat and don't need to avoid any particular ingredients like dairy or grains. But those who do have stricter diets have to consider which subscription gives them more of what they want and need, whether they're vegetarian, gluten-free, or pescatarian.

Pescatarians (people who primarily eat vegetarian as well as seafood as their source of protein) will be happy to know that more meal subscription services are designing their menus with fish lovers in mind, meaning there are lots of options and variety if you're looking for easy, healthy, and quick ways to eat at home more.

Some meal subscriptions even offer specialized pescatarian plans that don't require a lot of extra work and modifications from customers, making these plans easier than ever to use than ever before. From seafood-friendly meals with veggies sharing the spotlight to pre-made meals that only require an oven or microwave, take a look at some of the best meal kit subscription options for pescatarians.

1. HelloFresh

We loved HelloFresh for its high quality recipes.

HelloFresh is one of the largest meal kit subscription services out there, so they naturally have a ton of options for pescatarians to get excited about. HelloFresh even has the option for you to only choose pescatarian-friendly options (as opposed to customizing and modifying your protein for meat recipes) the moment you start building your box. And with over 20 recipes added each week, you're sure to get a variety of recipes that make weeknight meals a little less boring.

In addition to selecting your pescatarian diet, you can also specify if you want to eat low calorie or gluten-free along with your fish and vegetarian meals, making this a very customizable plan for singles, couples and families.

Try HelloFresh for around $8.99 per serving

2. Blue Apron

Blue Apron has an expansive selection of options for pescatarians.

If you're especially looking for responsibly sourced seafood, Blue Apron has you covered. It offers seafood and vegetarian options as part of its Signature and Signature for 4 plans and the company has partnered with the Ocean Disclosure Project, an initiative by the Sustainable Fisheries Partnership that helps to reduce the environmental impact of fishing and fish farming.

Couple that with Blue Apron's delicious meal options (between two and four per kit), high-quality ingredients, and easy-to-use, chef-designed recipes, choosing Blue Apron is a great, sustainable option for pescatarians. Plus, you'll find around two or three pescatarian meals per kit using their special pescatarian diet option.

Try Blue Apron for around $7.49 per serving

3. Sunbasket

Sunbasket was the best meal kit for vegetarians we’ve tried.

Anyone can find a good meal plan on Sunbasket that puts vegetables front and center, so pescatarians can find loads of veggie-friendly recipes that aren't necessarily vegetarian. Sunbasket not only offers meal kits that you can cook yourself, but it also offers pre-made meals that can be ready in as little as four minutes. Weekly menus offer 24 recipes to pick and choose from. The tray that pre-made meals come in is also compostable, so you're not harming the Earth when you're trying to make your weeknight dinner. Sunbasket also has a special pescatarian plan that lets you pick and choose recipes that are designed with clean, organic, wild-caught and sustainable seafood in mind. And the meal kits also can include lunch, breakfast, and snack options.

Try Sunbasket for around $11.99 per serving

4. Green Chef

Green Chef is known for its tasty, organic offerings.

Green Chef prides itself on being a go-to meal kit for balanced, organic meals. While there is no special meal plan for pescatarians, in particular, the company divides its plans based on other lifestyles like "Keto+Paleo, Mediterranean, Fast & Fit, Vegan, Vegetarian, and Gluten-Free," with the menu options being "Balanced Living, Keto + Paleo, Plant-Powered." With the exception of the vegan and vegetarian meal plans, a pescetarian option can easily fit into these menus.

The Mediterranean meal plan is particularly good for seafood lovers who want fresh, organic, and clean vegetables to complement their protein. It should be noted that these meals do not leave a lot of room for modification. However, if you're a busy person, you'll be happy to know that all ingredients come pre-measured and prepped (though there is still some prep involved in creating these meals at home).

Try Green Chef for around $12.99 per serving

5. EveryPlate

EveryPlate is an excellent affordable meal kit choice.

If affordability is your top priority, you can't do better than EveryPlate. Generally, each meal is less than five dollars a serving, with an introductory price of less than two dollars a serving, while still promising fresh, high-quality, chef-inspired food. But can pescatarians get in on the savings? While the company doesn't offer a pescatarian plan (their plans include Classic, Veggie, Family, and Easy options), pescatarians can enjoy their vegetarian options as well as one or two fish-based meals as well, like Lemon Butter Scallops. Plus, every recipe is quick and easy for busy singles, couples, and families. In order to keep prices low, the company doesn't quite cater to special diets, but their 17 weekly recipes can be mixed and matched to suit pescatarian lifestyles.

Try EveryPlate for around $1.79 per serving

6. Home Chef

Home Chef is the best meal kit we’ve ever tried.

At first glance, Home Chef may not seem to have the same quantity of seafood and vegetarian options, but their weekly menus have 18 different options, so you're likely to get a good variety. Pescatarians also have the option of changing out their protein for any given recipe. Don't want New York strip steak? Home Chef lets you easily change it out with a salmon filet, for example. Plus, Home Chef is beloved because of its easy-to-understand recipe cards that cater to home cooks that may not have a lot of time or experience, as well as its high-quality ingredients, which will make any seafood lover rejoice. You also have the option for oven-ready meals that come in individual trays, so prep and clean-up are a breeze.

Try Home Chef for around $9.95 per serving

7. Martha & Marley Spoon

Try out Martha Stewart’s best seafood recipes with this meal kit.

Is there anything Martha Stewart can't do? It may not be a surprise to you that the icon of cooking and lifestyle shows also has an excellent meal kit subscription out there. Pescatarians can enjoy some of Martha's best seafood recipes, all prepped and brought to their door. Even less surprising, Marley Spoon offers 40 creative recipes from all sorts of different types of cuisine to choose from per week---several of which are seafood- and vegetarian-based. Marley Spoon offers five basic plans: Health & Diet, Vegetarian & Vegan, Meat & Fish, Under 30 Minutes, and Family-Friendly to pick and choose from. The company is also sensitive to issues regarding sustainability, so a lot of the packing materials are recyclable and the company is dedicated to being carbon neutral. Introductory pricing falls a little less than four dollars a serving, but normal pricing usually sits around ten dollars.

Try Martha & Marley Spoon for around $3.59 per serving

8. Dinnerly

Try out Martha Stewart’s best seafood recipes with this meal kit.

Much like EveryPlate, Dinnerly is a fairly newer subscription meal kit that is focused on keeping costs low, about five dollars a serving. Pescatarians don't have their own pre-determined meal plan as they would with the more expensive kits out there, but there are still a couple of options for seafood lovers who are also interested in vegetarian options as well. To keep costs down, Dinnerly uses fewer ingredients per recipe, digital recipe cards and simple packaging---so if you are a pescatarian looking for something easy, tasty, and simple to make for a couple of nights a week, Dinnerly makes for a great, budget-friendly option.

Try Dinnerly for around $4.99 per serving
