According to Dr. Seuss, "Unslumping yourself is not easily done!" There is no place where this is truer than the kitchen. Whether you are constantly chauffeuring your children all over town or you are just tired of the same old same old, mealtime can become downright tedious.
Recently, I learned about a new online meal delivery service that is making the rounds. (through my Facebook feed, anyway) I decided to give it a whirl and ordered a few meals for my family. There are several of the services out there. I tried Home Chef. Each week, on their website, they have a menu. You select how many servings you would like and which meals catch your fancy, and they do the rest. They ship you everything you need in a neat little box right to your doorstep.
So, this is what the contents of your box will look like:
Each meal is packaged separately, as well as any meat. They also send a binder and recipe cards for each meal.
They only send just what you need to make the meals, so there is no waste. You won't have herbs dying a slow death in your fridge while you think of new ways to insert them into some other meal, and you will be able to use some oddball ingredients that you may not be able to find at your local grocer.
This meal service may not be your go to for every meal because it can be expensive. However, if your family is small, it's a good option to have. It would be a great present to your college kid, and it's also awesome for vacation. I happened to remember it for our recent annual Girls' Weekend Trip to St. Simons Island, GA.
We usually rent a house with a kitchen. By thinking ahead, and using HomeChef, I was able to just order what we wanted (including Vegetarian options) and bring the box with me, so we didn't have to hunt down a grocery store while we were there.
We just poured some wine and broke out the meals.
It was practically painless!
....and did I mention healthy?
Just look at the finished products:
