Introducing Gousto recipe boxes for 1-5 people

Last Updated on 22nd April 2025 by Hannah
It’s official! Gousto is now the first recipe box in Britain to serve up mouthwatering meals for 1 to 5 people (and everything in between).
Hold onto your spatulas, home cooks – we’re shaking things up. We’ve been doing our thing, delivering boxes for 2 or 4 people to households up and down the UK for over a decade now.
But let’s face it: there’s no one-size-fits-all when it comes to families. So a recipe box that comes in 5 different sizes is a bit of a no-brainer.
Now, whether you’re dining solo or feeding five, you’ll be able to find the perfect Gousto box size for you.

Whether you’re looking for recipe boxes for one or need to feed a large family of five, Gousto’s flexible box sizes can fit every household’s needs. Discover how you can keep your recipe box delivery flexible, no matter what your week holds.
