Cooking dinner for your family has never been easier, thanks to a new company called HelloFresh. They’ll send you great recipes, do the shopping for you and even measure out the ingredients — and with a little preparation, your dinner will be ready in 30 minutes or less.
Whether you’re looking to eat healthier, decrease the time spent preparing (and shopping for) meals or just want to expand your dinnertime options, HelloFresh may be just what you’re looking for. In addition to simplifying your life, it also decreases the amount of waste in your kitchen (Say good-bye to that bottle of Turmeric that has been used only once, as ingredients are pre-measured before they are sent to you).
How are the meals? We’ll admit, we haven’t tried them yet, but we do have high hopes. They have chefs and nutritionists that create recipes on a weekly basis — and they work out of Aquavit (a Michelin-rated restaurant in NYC). All of the recipes use fresh ingredients — and healthy meals are a focus here.
Customers can sign up for a weekly subscription (selecting either the classic box with meat & fish or the veggie box) — and there’s no minimum. When you order by Thursday, you’ll get the box the next week. The cost — very reasonable. The classic box is just $69, giving you 3 meals for 2 people. The veggie option is priced at $10 less or $59 for 3 meals for 2. Tax and shipping are included in this price, making it a fraction of what it would cost you to go out to eat (or even cook in your own kitchen).
From now until May 19, 2013, HelloFresh is offering a special Mother’s Day special. Enter code HELLOMOTHER on the payment screen and get $20 off the classic or vegetarian box, making it just $49 (or $39).
