Oh, you want dinner to be convenient?
You're up for cooking it, but not the planning and preparation? What a drag it is maintaining a large inventory of fresh ingredients, and if you don't, then that's an extra trip to the store.
The grocery store is busy and you abhor the self-service registers, let alone with a cartful of items.
Ok, so you've got all the ingredients you could possibly need this week, but now what recipe?"What's for dinner?" The question everyone asks, but no one wants to hear. There has got to be an easier way!
Well, there is. Have a kit delivered to your door like clockwork containing all the ingredients necessary to cook a preselected delicious-looking meal, all from home on your phone or computer? Uhmm, YES PLEASE!But, if something seems too good to be true... Let's take a step back and consider a few things about a meal kit service:
- Cost: Quite expensive comparatively- Portions: Generally considered to be small- Freshness: Are you home to receive the delivery?- Waste: Individual wrapping of every single item- Food allergies: Get outta hereThe problem is... What's the alternative?
Enter this book.
There are simple ways to replicate what these services do for you that require only a similar amount of effort on your part. We will expand on all of the downsides to meal kits, and then give you solutions to replicate them.
And for good measure, why not throw in a 7-Day healthy meal plan that is still delicious. Fair warning, these meals are not vegetarian or vegan friendly. However, most people who follow those lifestyles also know how to make substitutions. With recommended daily intake of particular food groups, you'll be off to the races with your new knowledge, eating healthy, losing weight if that's your goal, and doing so in an efficient and cost-effective manner!
Speaking of cost, this book is 1/3 the cost of 1 meal from a subscription service. What have you got to lose?
