Farmer’s Fix

Farrmer’s Fix is a new company that delivers freshly made salads to your door (or work door). I was offered to try them out which came at the perfect timing since the salads were delivered on Superbowl Sunday – and we all know how we all eat during that particular day. I figured we’d commit to eating one salad a day for one week and see how we felt. They make eight different salads that come in a 24oz  compostable container. Farmer’s Fix delivers on a Sunday or Monday.

FARMER'S FIX 37
Re-usable cooler bag

I placed the order I think by a Wednesday to ensure a Sunday delivery. Ordering is easy as it’s done online.  Salads are $10/each if you order more than five per week.

The salads are well chilled in the insulated bag. An ice pack is also inside the green bag to help keep the salads nice and cold.

A note is tucked into the bag that gives more description on the company.

FARMER'S FIX 05
CHOPPED CHINESE (With sweet chili dressing)

Ingredients: Carrot, celery, cilantro, red bell pepper, red onion, romaine lettuce, scallion, sesame stick, snow pea

The dressing and sesame sticks are inside the salad but are in their own separate containers. I thought the dressing wouldn’t be enough but it was for this portion size (and probably a good thing for calories too). The salad tasted light, crunchy, and refreshing. Fear not as the peppers, onions, and scallions are on the bottom of the container so all the ingredients are indeed in there.

My trick is to add the dressing, put back the main lid, and then vigorously shake the container to get everything coated with the dressing. I have to admit that I craved for diced chicken in this Chopped Chinese salad though.

FARRO VEGETABLE

FARMER'S FIX 10

Ingredients: Almond, arugula, celery, farro, feta cheese, kalamata olive, red bell pepper, scallion

FARMER'S FIX 13

This was after tossing with the sherry  vinaigrette. This was a favorite as there was a saltiness (from olives) and slight bitterness that was balanced out by the fluffy farro.

TARRAGON LENTIL (With sherry vinaigrette dressing)

FARMER'S FIX 20

Ingredients: Castelvetrano olive, lentils du Puy, parmesan, shallot, spinach, tarragon, walnut, yellow bell pepper

FARMER'S FIX 21

The shallots and green olives worked well in this salad. The lentils were a bit squeaky.

FIELD AND GARDEN (With lemon oregano vinaigrette dressing)

Ingredients: Carrot, castelvetrano olive, corn, farro, pistachio, scallion, spinach, yellow bell pepper

FARMER'S FIX 27

The Field and Garden was another nice salad as there was so much going on in it. The olives were good, carrots gave it a nice crunch, and the scallions gave it a distinctive onion punch.

FARMER'S FIX 31
SOUTHWEST (With chipotle lime dressing )

Ingredients: Black bean, cherry tomato, chickpea, cilantro, corn, poblano pepper, red onion, romaine lettuce, sunflower seed

The black beans were better tasting than the lentils in a previous salad. Poblano peppers added a nice heat. The cilantro tied in the Southwest feel and taste to this salad.

We were impressed how fresh the salads stayed for over a week in the refrigerator. The convenience value was great but the paying value would be steep for those who can get salads elsewhere on their own. The ingredients used at Farmer’s Fix were top quality and tasted quite fresh. A protein option (chicken, salmon, etc) would be nice in the future as well. Overall, we enjoyed Farmer’s Fix and would order from them again in the future.
