I do! I really like it. The food is fresh and the recipes are really good. I love how it makes us try new things that I otherwise probably wouldnt buy. The 2 cons are the price, it does get a little pricey because I still have to grocery shop for the weekly staples and other meals. The only other con is that sometimes there is a lot of prep such as chopping/cutting. Although its chopping and cutting fresh veggies so its healthy stuff! If you want to sign up you can use the code below for $20 off your first box. Let me know if any other questions! : )

Thanks for the code. Another question - do you do for 2 or 4? It's just DH and me half the time and my 16 yr old stepson is with us the other half so I guess we would have to do the meals for 4. What is the quantity of food like?

We were getting the 2 person box, but I recently upped it to 4 since my toddler can eat as much as a grown adult some nights. I will say that the quantity of food is not enormous, in fact they are probably correct true portion sizes. But yes you'd probably have to do the 4 person box and then maybe just have some leftovers the nights your stepson is not there.

Great! I'm curious to hear how you like it. We got a box yesterday, and as I was cooking last night I was thinking another reason I like it is that it makes me feel like a good cook. haha! That sort of sounds silly, but its so easy when all the ingredients and recipes are delivered to your door. We get to have different things each week and I dont have to do any of the planning/shopping! Chat Icon

No its just dinners. The 2 person box is $69, and each week they deliver fresh ingredients & recipe cards for 3 meals. Everything that you need is included (meat, veggies, etc) down to 1 tsp packets of spices! The only things you normally need to have on hand are things like olive oil and salt/pepper. Its a little pricey but its different meals each week and its a nice variety for us. I usually do it for awhile, and then pause it, and then restart it again when I get tired of eating/cooking the same old things. Its really flexible so you can skip weeks if you'll be away etc.
