Food Delivery Near You – Healthy Choices You’ll Love

Most of us have gotten an occasional takeout meal or have had food delivered from a favorite restaurant. Up until the outbreak of the coronavirus in late February of 2020, these were restaurant services we took for granted. Now, restaurant delivery has a new place in our lives.

Our local online menus are packed full of Tennessee favorites – burgers, pizza, bbq, and fried chicken. But hidden among the fried and fast-foods are some exciting healthier choices.

Satisfying Food, Fun Flavors for the Whole Family

Using the guidelines from the Premier Cancer Alliance’s healthy diet information, we’ve combed local takeout and food delivery services to bring you some of Cookeville’s best and healthiest food delivery choices. These meals feature lots of vegetables and grains, so fear not! These dishes are satisfying and pack a taste-punch that will make your mouth (and body) happy. Our food delivery options include familiar Mexican, Mediterranean, and Asian favorites.

Note: To help you out, we’ve featured local Cookeville, TN restaurants that are still operating during the coronavirus restrictions.

These recommendations are based on our read-through of the menus and comparing the ingredients listed to the dietary guidelines set out by the American Institute of Cancer Research.
