it’s that time of year again… backpacks, school buses, schedules, football… it’s back to school we go!

this also means family dinners are more structured and while i try my best to plan well-balanced, healthy meals… sometimes it’s nice to have a little help.

recently, i discovered hello fresh and our lives have changed!

if you’re not familiar, hello fresh is a recipe kit delivery service that essentially takes all of the work out of providing healthy, delicious meals to you and your family.  they offer three different box options including a classic box, a vegetarian box and a family box. while this is a subscription service, you can easily cancel, pause or modify your service any time and will only be charged upon delivery.

you choose the date + meals (included in the classic box) then await your pre-measured, seasonal ingredients, follow the recipe and enjoy! it really is that easy!

the box of food arrived on a day when temps were in the 90’s.  to be honest, i was a little nervous how it would hold up because i knew we would be out all day, but i was pleasantly surprised when i opened the box to find chilled, fresh ingredients that hadn’t spoiled or changed temps!

so what did we eat?!

as a busy twin mama who doesn’t have loads of time for planning and prepping, hello fresh exceeded my expectations… the recipes were delicious and it took the thinking out of meal planning for this sleep deprived mama. we literally haven’t stopped talking about our meals and have already hooked most of our family on getting their own box!
