Why protein matters — the general benefits of a protein-rich diet

Protein is an essential part of a balanced diet. As general nutrition guidance, protein contributes to the growth and maintenance of normal muscle and helps you feel satisfied after a meal. For busy Kiwis juggling work, kids, training, or all three, getting enough protein through the day is genuinely hard — especially when cooking from scratch isn't always on the cards.

At Delicious & Done, we make it easier. Our meals are built around real protein sources: slow-cooked beef, chicken breast and thigh, and pork shoulder. Each tray is a full meal — not a side dish or a snack — with the kind of portion sizes that actually satisfy.

All meals are snap-frozen at peak freshness, so there's no compromise on flavour. Heat in the oven, microwave, or air fryer and dinner is on the table in around 25–30 minutes (oven, from thawed).

FAQs

What makes a meal high in protein?

For this collection, we use our own benchmark: every meal contains at least 22g of protein per serve. That number is the Delicious & Done standard, not an official definition. We set it so you can quickly find our most protein-rich meals.

Separately, under the Food Standards Code that applies in New Zealand, a food can carry a "Good Source of Protein" claim when it contains at least 10g of protein per serve. Many of our meals outside this collection meet that standard too. You'll see the claim on each meal's page, alongside the full nutrition panel.

Are the high protein meals suitable for people who train?

Absolutely — they're real food, not diet products: filling, flavourful, and made with ingredients you'd recognise. (Nutrition varies by dish; check each product page.)

Are any high protein meals also gluten-free or dairy-free?

Yes — several meals carry gluten-free and dairy-free tags. Use the dietary filters on the menu page, or check the allergen information on each product page before ordering.

Getting dinner on the table just got a whole lot easier.

Whether you’re feeding a full house, looking after someone from afar, or just need a break from cooking for a night, we’ve made mealtimes easy & doable.
