I love meal prep delivery services like Home Chef, Dinnerly, Blue Apron, Factor, Hello Fresh, EveryPlate, and Marley & Spoon. Yes, I’ve used every one of those, and no, I’m not trying to lure you in with affiliate links. Honestly, these cut out so much work that’s involved with planning, shopping, and in some cases prepping ingredients. There is waste in the shipping and packaging, but very little in terms of food waste.
There are other drawbacks to consider. The meals tend to be high in calories, fat, and sodium. I find that it’s mainly the pricier options that offer the healthier meals. The lower cost meal plans seem to be higher in refined carbs like white rice.
For January 2023, Home Chef offered one of my favorites: that is Skinnytaste meals! Unfortunately, there don’t seem to be any of these options for February meal selections up- I hope they’ll develop more soon. Here is some further information. (There is an affiliate link on the page below, but it’s not mine.)
I’ve made two of these meals and have used the photo of one above. So delish! Home Chef does have other healthy meal choices which they call Fresh Start. Perfect for the new year!
Other meal delivery services offer similar options. These would be convenient for busy working families, but if you are price conscious they may not be the best long term option. Why not get one of the special offers each company seems to promote to get you started? In my experience, you can cancel any time, but it’s a good idea to read the fine print!
We all need a little motivation and help with food prep. Get inspired by creative recipes and cut out some of your work at the same time!
