With Valentine’s Day right around the corner, people are rushing to make reservations at their favorite restaurant and making sure they have enough to cover the expensive check.
Think about it, instead of spending a fortune on a meal this year you and your loved one can come together for an intimate night of home cooking, without any waits or loud crowds.
To get your valentine’s dinner planned all you need to do is look into one of these three food or meal kit deliveries. However, make sure you do have all the necessities for your kitchen.
1. HelloFresh
HelloFresh is so easy to use and love their packaging. I received a box to feed the family and liked how everything was nicely organized in brown paper bags by meals with all of its ingredients. The box came with ice packs to keep the food fresh. Every meal was a breeze to cook following their easy to read recipes.
So, how does it work?
Pick a plan from their veggie, classic or family serving to feed 2 to 4 people and get 2 or 3 recipes for the week. They have a flexible plan to match your lifestyle. Need to cancel, change meals, or skip a week? Not a problem. However, I did wish they offered more than 3 recipes for the week like 7 for the entire week.
Planning that Valentine’s dinner will be easy with HelloFresh after picking your meals and getting your delivery. All you will have to do is open their beautiful packaging, follow their simple step-by-step recipes complete with nutritional information and fresh, already measured ingredients to get you whipping up that delicious dinner in no time.
This way you don’t have to run around thinking about what you will buy at the grocery store and instead make time arranging that romantic dinner for Valentine’s Day. Welcome to a world where dinner is always planned, simple, and delicious.
What makes HelloFresh a great meal kit delivery service is their delicious ingredients and step-by-step recipes; simplicity online and cooking instructions.
HelloFresh is stress-free, which means you can take your evenings with fewer trips to the store, pre-planned meals, and little cleanup. Plus they are dietarily diverse because you can tell them what you like and don’t like, and they will recommend something yummy.
2. EveryPlate
Not the best packaging since they just throw everything you need in a box but pretty much works the same as above. Everything you need, delivered each week.
When your internal clock strikes dinnertime and throwing together a meal can be challenging EveryPlate has you covered. They shop and deliver so you can unwind, cook and eat. Their recipes take about 30 minutes to complete & you never have to juggle too many pots or pans. I have to admit the recipes are amazing and food comes out so tasty.
3. Crowd Cow
Are you a meat lover? Then this is the perfect food delivery for you since they have all types of meats to deliver to your front door. This delivery service is different from above since they do not give you a recipe and other ingredients. They just send you all natural meats for you to cook, which saves you time from going to the butcher, grocery store or finding incredible meat straight from the farm.
Everything in the box did come frozen though and in a neatly packed iced-box. However, in the box also came these postcards that explained which farm the meat came from and more about the farmer. Really Cool that there is transparency here because you learn more about what you are eating instead of wondering where your meat is coming from and why it either cost so much or cost so cheap.
How It Works
DISCOVER
By farm or by cut, it’s easy to explore and shop their high-quality craft beef, pork and chicken.
GET PUMPED
Vacuum-sealed, flash-frozen meat gets shipped directly to your door.
ENJOY
Share the experience of this incredible craft meat with your love one this Valentine’s Day.
There you Go!
We just took the thinking game away from you and made your life easier by going the meal kit or food service delivery route this year and impress your lady. If you both are meat lovers we suggest you go with Crowd Cow. Make her feel like she is at a Brazilian Rodizio by offering a plate of many meats. She will be so impressed you knew what to cook and everything you are offering. However if you are looking for one special meal to blow her mind then look at HelloFresh, which comes with all the ingredients you need. She will think you are a professional chef. We leave the dessert up to you. Enjoy!
