Great question! Here’s the breakdown:

Thursday – We send out an email with two new vegetarian meal options for the upcoming week, as well as posting them to our website, CiboMeals.com. You can place your order any time after the new meal options are released, and you can order as many jars as often as you want.

Sundays – You will receive a reminder-to-order email so you don’t miss out on our creative, ready-to-eat meals!

Mondays – Please order and pay online by 11:00 a.m. so we can shop for your ingredients fresh that day and be ready to cook up your order on Tuesday.

Tuesday between 3:00-7:00 p.m. – We deliver right to your doorstep (home or business). Your meals are prepared, cooked, and jarred fresh at Rocky Mountain Commissary in Arvada, CO earlier that day.

The next time you order from Cibo Meals, just leave your rinsed jars in a bag where we can grab them when we make your new delivery…easy, right?

We fully wash and sanitize the jars, lids, and cooler bags that are returned to us each week.

Dishes are prepared vegetarian and protein recommendations are always included in case you want to add this to your meal yourself.

Here’s a quick step-by-step video with screen-shots showing how to place your order on our website. Still having issues? Please call us at 720.530.3140 so that we can assist you.

 

Cibo Meals offers two Eco-friendly jar sizes to order from, both of which usually come with a side or topping option:

• Regular Cibo is a Quart size jar or 32 oz. (about 2 servings) for $23.00/jar + sales tax
• Piccolo Cibo is a Pint-size jar or 16 oz. (about 1 serving) for $13.50/jar + sales tax

You do not have to be home for delivery. If this is your first order, you will receive our green cooler bag with your order. When you order again in the future, we just ask that you leave out your green cooler bag with your rinsed-out jars and plastic lids inside, and we will swap everything out with your new order! We also ask that you return the plastic ice packs (if included with delivery) inside your cooler bag.

We offer two vegetarian options every week, and often one of these options is also gluten-free, which will be noted on the meal option. We can also usually make your meal dairy-free if indicated it the Comments section of the order form when ordering. If you have additional dietary restrictions, please note these in the Comments section and we will try to accommodate you. We will let you know if we cannot accommodate your needs prior to preparing your order. Please note that we cook your meals in a shared kitchen space where gluten, nuts, and other food allergens may be present.

Since we use reusable Mason jars for our meals, which are known for their canning and pickling usefulness, most of our dishes should stay fresh for up to 5 days after delivery, if refrigerated within a few hours of delivery. Make sure to keep your jars refrigerated as soon as possible after delivery, and do not open and close it more than you need to, this will help to maintain the meal’s freshness. Many of our meals can also be frozen for 2-3 months, and should be defrosted at room temperature.

Included with each of our Mason Jar Meals is a note card with the recommended serving suggestion, and if a topping or side is included, what that is. Also, we include a protein recommendation, but this is not included. You can plan ahead of your delivery and buy this protein recommendation on your own to add, if desired. Last, we include the recommended “enjoy by” date, and if the meal can be frozen or not. All of these notes are recommendations and we encourage you to personalize your Cibo Meals however you want to!

Some meals will freeze better than others. Look for the freezer icon when placing your order if you intend to freeze something. To freeze our food, you will need to refrigerate the jar for at least 8 hours first to allow it to fully cool, then put it into the freezer. To reheat from frozen, leave the frozen jar out for at least 8 hours, or leave in your refrigerator for 12 hours. (This can take a while, so please plan accordingly). Depending on the frozen meal, you may want to add more broth/sauce/dressing to the jar in order to add some moisture.
