When I first heard about HelloFresh I was curious if it would work in our lifestyle.  I would consider our evening and weekend schedule pretty packed and busy and frankly there are days that getting a good wholesome meal on the table is nearly impossible.  So, when I had the opportunity to try HelloFresh, I was all over it, and ironically the week that I got my box of meals, was one of those crazy busy weeks.
Our delivery came with three meals for a serving of 4 people.  Because Teagan eats like a bird, we ended up with leftovers for all of our meals, just something to consider when placing the size of your order.  The delivery was perfect, it happened to be a super warm (or hot) winter day in Colorado and honestly I was worried that our food would be wilted and spoiled but the box was packed with ice packs and in a wrap that kept everything nice and cold.

I decided to share my first experience using HelloFresh in pictures through out this post.  We made the One-Pan Orzo Italiano.  YUM!
1.  Easy storage.  I was worried that all of the ingredients for the three meals would take up so much room in my refrigerator and that I would get confused with what items go with each meal BUT HelloFresh makes it super easy.  Every meal is separated into individual paper bags and you simply put those bags right into the refrigerator.  So easy!  When you are ready to prepare your meal, check the label and find your super detailed recipe card and get cooking.

2.  Get out of that meal plan rut.  How many of you have the same or similar meal plan every week?  ::raises hand::  How many of you who also raised your hand have kids or family members that complain about you preparing the same thing over and over again?  Yup me too!  HelloFresh will not only let you and your family experience some new recipes but you will also have the opportunity to experience new foods and flavors.  Picky eaters? No worries, the meals are so delicious so everyone will be happy.  Bringing these HelloFresh meals into your home will totally open up your mind to some new fresh meals.

3.  No running to the grocery store.  Even though I can go grocery shopping in the middle of the day with out the crowds I am still not a fan of the whole grocery shopping game.  Mostly because I usually forget something that we need to complete a meal and bringing all of the grocery bags in the house and unloading them is a big pain!  Plus it usually takes up a good 1-2 hours of my busy day!  HelloFresh delivers everything you will need for your recipes, easy!  No running back and forth to the store for your weekly dinner plans.
4. Save some money. Have you had those days that you run to the store just for a “few items” and that whole impulse buying thing kicks in?  Honestly, if you say NO, I won’t believe you.  It happens to the best of us, even when we are actually trying to be good and on budget.  I am firm believer that planning your meals, even if you are the one doing it and not HelloFresh, you will save money but the difference between me doing this and HelloFresh is that they send me the carefully proportioned ingredients and I am not being impulsive.  Example – need potatoes but not a whole bag, they will only send you the number of potatoes you need to prepare your meal.

5.  Have fun cooking.  Before kids, I really had a desire to cook but especially the preparing of meals.  I kind of love chopping veggies – tell me I am not alone.  But with all the craze in this world we call parenthood, that cooking desire disappeared.  Since we have introduced HelloFresh into our home, we have been enjoying cooking more and we are even getting the kids involved in our food prep.  They love it!  HelloFresh gives us the opportunity to not only enjoy preparing our dinners but show some great life skills with the kids.

6.  The planning is done for you.  I am a planner but something about coming up with a weekly dinner meal plan with the list of ingredients needed can be super overwhelming.  When we knew we had three meals that needed to be enjoyed, we were able to look at our week and plan when we would have these meals.  Back to the saving money thing as well, we stayed on plan and did not eat out.  Again, saving money and enjoying a nice home-cooked meal with our family.

In addition to the One-Pan Orzo Italiano we also enjoyed a Fun-Day Fajita Bar and Crispy Frico Cheeseburgers.  All of them were delicious and super easy to prepare and make.  I was also pleasently surprised at the kid friendly options but adult loving dishes.

    How awesome is this?! When I try and cook meals for myself and others, I rarely use anything packaged and frozen I make sure I make everything from scratch. Everything is as fresh as possible as far as produce goes. I can see this being incredibly fun to do and make.

    I remember reading about grocery delivery before. My first thought was how convenient it would be for older folks and people with physical disabilities who can't always walk around a grocery store and show like people with able bodies. i think this is an excellent thing to have.

    We haven't tried this yet- I am curious about how it compares to some of the other meal delivery services. It would definitely be great for our family on nights when we have dance and I have no time to cook!
