4. “Some Assembly Required” Meal Kits

It is just what it says it is. I called it this because of when my kids were younger. They would get a gift, Dad and Mom would take the pieces out and set the box aside so THEY could assemble the toy that came in the box, while the kid played in the box! This is almost the same type of thing except maybe this time the kids will be helping you put the meal together. In this refrigerated box you will receive a week’s worth of the right amount of FRESH ingredients from those meals you have ordered and the recipes to make them.One place can even include videos if you need the extra help. They are proportionate servings to make it healthier. You provide the items to prep the food, cook the food in whether it’s pots, pans, or ovenware. Enjoy when you sit down to eat it. Seasonal items are used, so some recipes are only available at certain times of the year. I would be sure to have it delivered where someone is around when it arrives or you might be going through the drive-thru if people learn it’s food. You do have to find fridge space to keep the ingredients and leftovers (if there are any). Have you run yourself ragged taking this kid to soccer practice and that kid to piano lessons, and just don’t want to make another stop at the grocery store with ALL the hungry kids with you? Maybe you can’t drive anymore with MS, but still need to feed your family. Order the meal kits and the shopping is already done for you. Just choose the meals when you order them and all you have to do is prepare and eat the meal!

 Home Chef is more affordable than shopping for the same ingredients at a supermarket. Not only do their meal kits save you time, they can save you money per meal. The kits include the right amount of FRESH ingredients and also include the amount of oils, spices, and “extras” (like cheese) needed in the recipes. Tips and tricks for preparation are included also. You don’t have to worry about buying a big bottle of oil or spices at the grocery store you won’t use again. You even take a chance on NOT FINDING that oil or spice in your grocery store.  You can select any number of meals, but most order 3 meals or more. Some people even order 2 of the same meal at a time.

The kits will arrive the next week in an environmentally-friendly insulated box with ice packs. So you just put them in the refrigerator until ready to prepare.  Control your deliveries by skipping a week or pausing or canceling your account. Ingredients in the box are organized to each recipe making it just a little easier for you! They make fancy food approachable and inexpensive. You get everything you need to whip up a restaurant-caliber meals for two people or make sure you order enough for the family.  It will take a novice chef approximately 30 minutes to fix one of their meals.

Walmart

Shop kitchen necessities for less at Walmart.com

I like to get my glass cooking dishes for the oven from Walmart. They offer Anchor Hocking and Pyrex  brands in all sizes from small to large, round, square, and rectangle depending on what you want to put in them. I like the round ones for salads and side dishes. The square and rectangle work well for those casseroles, meatball, desserts, cakes, etc. Some come with plastic lids for storage, which you don’t want to put in the oven to melt. Use foil in it’s place in the oven. Any multi-piece set of Anchor Hocking dishes would make a nice gift for shower or wedding. Just look and you might be surprised at what kitchen tools you might find! If you don’t need a big set, just search and find the one you need.
