Want extra time? Plated...


So i've been trying to find ways to simplify my weeknights. One of which being finding ways to still have a healthy lifestyle BUT not spend all my eveing time at the grocery store, or finding recipes. So I took a look at my calendar and realized I had 2 crazy weeks so the perfect time to see how plated could help me out. Verdict: AMAZING!

Even with a gluten free diet I was able to find 2 good new recipes for us to try. My goal of course being to try some new things since they send you a test recipe that I can trust a bit more than some of my finds on pinterest.

Everything arrives pre-portioned in a box delivered to my house on the weekends, or office if I pick a weekday delivery.





My favorite part aside from the simplicity was the amount of food NOT wasted since they sent me for example just the tablespoon of tomato paste I needed not leaving me with 2/3 of a can sitting in my fridge for a week until I realize i'm likely not going to need it again anytime soon.



Both meals a success and husband approved even with new foods thrown in there like eggplant! Winning recipes, great instructions, and an easier night after work for us -- definitely doing again!

Also makes a great gift for new mom's etc. Try it out -- https://www.plated.com/invites/db9240
