People often ask me, do you cook a lot. I often respond with a snort and and a smile. Then something along the lines of, I'm better at eating. All snorts and retorts aside, I do want to cook. I honestly just have a hard time finding a block in my schedule to do so. Then there's the whole, I have to buy a WHOLE bag of spinach when I only NEED 2 handfuls. The remaining ingredients always go unused and I feel guilty. This is where Hello Fresh comes into the picture.
“We source ingredients directly from independent producers to deliver you nothing but fresh, top-quality products. And, you don’t need to be home to accept a delivery. Our boxes are layered with an isolating wool and ice packs to keep ingredients farm fresh and cool until you get home.”
At this point, most people have heard of these meal delivery kits. Essentially, you get just enough ingredients to make delicious meals. Most places have different plans that range from dietary restrictions to family size. The meals are delivered to your door, three at a time, and typically take 30-40 minutes to prepare. Super simple instructions are included with step by step photo instructions.
I chose the family meal plan and got 3 kits. The first one I made was the Shrimp Linguine.
It may not seem like a lot, but the shrimp was deveined which is a HUGE deal to me. There's nothing worse than biting into your meal and realizing the shrimp wasn't properly cleaned. Also, the Oregano was so fragrant, it made my kitchen smell so good.
I was very proud of the finished product! I ate it over the course of 3 days and it tasted just as good as day 1. You can use code DAILYJ35 for $35 off your first box! If you do end up trying it, let me know! I'd love to hear your thoughts.
