This lady has taken the time to do a proper price comparison. I'm amazed that the price difference is so small as I really thought it would be huge. It's worth watching..

Interesting. Of course, realistically speaking, one might already have many of those ingredients in cupboard, fridge of freezer so wouldn't need to buy in but she made a very good point about broadening the meals spectrum, I thought.
ReplyDeleteI know someone newly wed who had little cooking experience who used meal boxes to start her off. It worked.

I think it's been a great experiment for Tony and I and has encouraged me to cook something that might not have even crossed my mind. Once my special offer is finished I'll be trying Gousto and comparing the two.
DeleteI think many people will be surprised, it was my eldest son who got me into keeping storing staples like herbs and seasonings and basics like coconut milk and tofu which is a main part of our families diet. We also grow our own herbs now.
ReplyDeleteI like looking online for recipes and if I ask my mum she will send me cookbooks in my care packages.
I think boxes like this are for people who are short on time and get a bit stuck on what to cook on a night. We looked at one yesterday but it would end up costing way more and the packing it came in was ridiculous and we recycle everything and it’s a nightmare over here.
I'm hoping to grow and dry many more herbs this year. Have a look at 'Rain Country' videos on You Tube. The lady has a wealth of knowledge about preserving things
DeleteMy daughters friend gifted her a hello fresh box. It had three vegetarian meals in it.
ReplyDeleteI was very doubtful and my daughter absolutely hates cooking and when she does cook, it never really turns out so good.
The box arrived and she made the creamy mushroom pasta, it was made from some absolutely delicious looking fresh mushrooms and when it was finished I couldn't believe it was so tasty. The second night was a halloumi curry dish, again really nice. I cant remember the last night but it had potatoes in it.
Her friends buy these boxes, they have quite demanding jobs and live alone, so often make a dish for two and take leftovers for lunch.
I was very sceptical but having seen them, I think theres a place for them. I did try to recreate the pasta dish, but mine wasnt half as good.
