Cooking Recipes At Home Never Got Easier!
Pressed for time when it come to cooking recipes? Do you ever tire of all the meal planning for cooking recipes at home? Grocery shopping? Tossing excess food you don’t use? But, you don’t feel like eating out all the time! Recently we had the chance to try a new recipe kit that has rocked my world! I’m going to share why it’s helped me so much. And introduce you to the meal kit delivery service we tried. I am also sharing the meal we made and what it was like for us to use this service. Bonus, a coupon at the end of this post for $35. off for your 1st order, to give it a try! If you’d like and I think you might like to! Just sayin’ Woot!
Let’s cut straight to the yumminess of the HelloFresh recipe kit service. The meals were easy to prepare by following a recipe card. And the meal turned out delicious! The choices were a mix of things I would make and one that I typically wouldn’t make. I’m always up for trying something new though. What about you? All the recipes were easy to make!

Our family meal
- Crispy Chicken Parmigiana Spinach Salad With White Potatoes
To be honest I wasn’t sure if this would even be the right fit for me. But, it’s really helped us out. For one it’s gotten my daughter excited about helping in the kitchen with home cooking. Well, that’s just a bonus.
- We are always cooking too much food. Which equals waste. My meal planning gets tiresome. Some weeks it just feels endless!
Let me give you a peek on the HelloFresh meal delivery kit and what’s inside.
What’s great is everything you need arriving to your door directly! No running around to the stores. Forgetting an ingredient….I could see online what day it was arriving. When I wasn’t home I left a small note for the driver to leave it as I was coming right back. We grabbed our box and started to get a meal together from the recipe kit.
What’s in the recipe kit?
- Recipe cards with each recipe with step by step instructions
- Finished image of what your meal will look like on the opposite side
- Each meal packed in small boxes
- The meat well packaged under the boxes with a separator, next to the ice packs
- All well insulated
Cooking Recipes
Made so easy!
I’m excited to see Sammie excited about cooking! She helped prepare our recipe kit! I think the tenderizing the chicken was her favorite part. You should see our bloopers. So funny! Sammie asked, “what’s tomorrows meal?” I handed her the recipe card. Tomorrow’s meal we are trying the Korean-Style Beef Stir Fry with brown rice. The other meal we have to try is a recipe by Jamie Oliver : Mega Mushroom & Lentil Curry with Tomato, cilantro and lemony rice.
As some of you know I’ve been traveling back and forth to help out with my older kids families. We have a new baby in the family. But, in doing that it leaves my family at home without meals. With Sammie being in school and her dad at work no one has time to meal plan, shop and cook. Dinners at 9:00pm? No! This might be our new solution to times I’m traveling. Or even when I know I’ll too busy to deal with everything that goes into meal planning and shopping for cooking!

Not only that but, there are days I’m writing, in the studio (crafting or with photography) and then have to plan, shop and cook dinners. Running short on time is common. It’s hard to juggle it all! I’m happy to say I’m excited to share all the yummy details of the other meals, well in short updates! I hope if you try it you’ll love it as much!

This looks so yummy! I can’t wait for my little to be big enough to help in the kitchen. This looks like such a fun thing to explore with a kid!
Hey Cajun, you’d love it now. No shopping with baby, They have meal plans for 2!
Someone I know was just telling me about HelloFresh today! I really like the idea of someone doing the meal planning and shopping for me 😉
Oh my gosh both the Mr. & I feel the same! Love it.
I’ve seen this before and wondered how it was. I’m glad to see you’ve tried it and enjoyed it. I’ll have to look into this a bit more, because if it’s one thing I hate it’s grocery shopping!
Hi Phyllis, I’d seen it too. But, until now hadn’t tried it. We’ve been enjoying the meals and they are easy to cook. Fresh produce and really good quality meats. Thanks for stopping by! Hope you get a chance to try it!
