Delivery FAQS

How is the food delivered?

Our meals are delivered chilled, via refrigerated transport.

Your meals will be packed into an insulated cardboard box with a cooling gel pack. This is then delivered via refrigerated transport to your door.

You'll receive a text upon delivery. Our drivers will endeavour to leave your order in a safe location out of direct sunlight where possible - please ensure to bring your order inside and put your meals in the fridge once delivered.

How much is shipping?

Our shipping fee is a flat rate of $15 for refrigerated delivery, ensuring your meals arrive fresh and safely chilled.

Does your food come frozen?

Nope - our food arrives to you freshly prepared by the kitchen. Your delivery will be sent to your door in a refrigerated truck, so it doesn’t need to be frozen – it’ll be ready for you to heat up as soon as you’re ready.

If you don’t plan on eating your meals by the use-by date, you can absolutely freeze them. When you're ready to eat, we advise reheating the meal from frozen instead of defrosting or thawing your meal out first. It'll take about 5-6 minutes in the microwave.

Spotlight on: Sweet Potato

Spotlight on: Sweet Potato

Dineamic Blog | Sweet Potato

Twenty years ago, the humble sweet potato might have occasionally made its way to your Sunday roast if you were lucky. Nowadays it’s considered one of the trendiest ‘health foods’ in Australia. So popular that even sweet potato ‘juice’ was pitched, (thank goodness that never became a thing).

Sweet potatoes are so versatile that you can now find them as fries, in brownies, as toast and even made into a killer ice cream. Not only are they great bang for your buck but they contain high levels of antioxidants, are a source of dietary fibre and pack a nutritious punch with essential vitamins and minerals.

Varieties

A true battler, sweet potatoes are hardy and an easy crop to grow. They grow best in warm to hot climates and are in season during Spring and Summer (now!). With that in mind, it makes sense that over 70% of our Aussie-grown sweet potato crops are grown in Queensland with New South Wales following as the second largest producer.

You’ll find the Gold, Purple and White varieties most commonly, all of which differ in texture, sweetness and popularity.

  • Gold sweet potatoes (Beauregard/Bellevue) are known for their sweetness and moistness and are best for mashing and baking
  • White sweet potatoes (Kestle) are creamy skinned with white flesh are drier in texture and are best for roasting
  • White Skin Purple Flesh sweet potatoes (WSPF) when thinly sliced are great in salads
  • Purple sweet potatoes (Northern Star) taste like baked chestnuts and best fried as chips.

Nutritional Benefits

Sweet potatoes are high in beta-carotene, a precursor of vitamin A, known to play a role in eye and skin health as well as the immune system. Just one sweet potato will also provide your daily recommended intake of vitamin C which promotes immune health, wound healing and connective tissue development. They’re also a rich source of fibre that offer protective effects on the digestive system and contain vitamin B6, magnesium, potassium, calcium and selenium.

Of the varieties that are available, orange fleshed sweet potatoes are higher in beta-carotene whereas purple fleshed sweet potatoes are higher in anthocyanins however both are phytochemicals that play a role in health to reduce oxidation and fight free radicals.

If you asked anyone out there what they know about sweet potato and its health benefits, most will often say that it is low GI.  (FYI: GI measures how a food containing carbohydrates raises blood glucose levels). People with diabetes are recommended to consume moderate amounts of carbohydrates, high in fibre that are also low GI to improve blood sugar regulation. Sweet potatoes being low GI offers a great alternative to traditional potatoes for those living with diabetes when eaten in moderation and among a balanced diet.

Ways to prepare, shop and store.

How we prepare sweet potatoes may also offer a nutritional difference as steaming has been shown to increase the antioxidant properties of polyphenols by 9.44% as opposed to boiling and frying which decreased the content.

Sweet potatoes are a pretty easy to choose & low maintenance vegetable. When selecting your sweet potatoes, there’s not too much to it, just look for ones with no bruises, no soft spots, cracked skin or signs of sprouting. Consumer insight reports also found that a ‘torpedo’ shape can also be a preference for some as it is easier to peel.  As for storage, keep them in a cool, well ventilated dry place and avoid the fridge to prevent ‘hard spots’ from occurring.
