Our household just runs smoother with a weekly menu, and when I added Home Chef meals to the mix last July- it made such a difference! Let me show you how easy it is to plan a weekly menu with Home chef!
What is Home Chef?
If you don’t know what Home Chef is, let me tell you about it! It is a weekly meal subscription service. Pick from a variety of meals each week and they send you all of the ingredients and instruction to make a delicious chef designed meal! The options also include the level of work required. There are oven ready meals that require very little, if any prep and some that take more time and may involve more prep work. If you would like to give them a try- try my $35 off referral code!
Home Chef saves us time!
Home Chef saves us time each week! The meal kits are delivered right to our door- so time saved by not going to the grocery store. Everything is portioned and planned- so time saved by not having to plan those meals and prep the ingredients. Just not even having to think about those meals is a stress reliever too!
If you aren’t comfortable with or new to cooking this is a great place to start! My 18 year old son has been making 1 meal a week. He picks it out (usually picks one of the more challenging options), and cooks it all by himself- from start to finish. It has been a great way for him to learn and get more confidence in the kitchen. He gets so excited to pick out his weekly Home Chef meal and prepare it!
