HelloFresh

This is the first meal kit delivery service I have tried. Our neighbor up the street uses Hello Fresh and recommended it. I knew what I was getting into so I wasn't surprised about how the meals came or what type of recipes to expect. I really didn't look at any other meal kit delivery companies so I don't have a real comparison but, I do like Hello Fresh and plan on to keep using it.

The meat and vegetables are always fresh when delivered and just as high quality as our local grocery store. I like the variety of recipes and I enjoy cooking different meals. My 2 kids who are age 10 and 12 have liked most meals as well. The recipes are kid friendly and not super spicy which is important.

My boyfriend and I have never eaten better. I was never much of a cook before because I could never decide what to prepare. Thanks to Hello Fresh they send me 3 new recipes each week along with the ingredients needed.  The recipes are always tasty and healthy and the portions are perfect for our needs. We have probably lost 10 pounds between us thanks to us not eating out so often and eating better.

The step by step instructions are very easy to follow with most meals taking half an hour to prepare.

Been using Hello Fresh for just over a month now. I am trying to eat healthier and this is the way I thought to do it since when ever I go to the grocery store I end up buying crap. 

I am glad I tried out meal kits. I have lost some weight now and have found out I enjoy trying different meals and cooking, who knew! 

Unlike some reviews I have read, the ingredients delivered to me has always been fresh.

If you are sitting on the fence about trying out Hello Fresh my recommendation is to go for it.

I used Hello Fresh for a while and I did enjoy it at first but I slowly found the number of meals they offer every week to be not enough selection for me. Their recipes and ingredients are really good but I wanted more selection as I always don't feel like chicken all the time. 

I really like the idea of these weekly boxed meal services so I ended up switching to Home Chef which has more weekly meal selections and is just as tasty as Hello Fresh is. Hello Fresh is by no means a bad service they just need to offer more recipe selections.

We have enjoyed the Hello Fresh service over the last 3 months. A few things could be improved though to give it a full 5 star rating.

What we do enjoy is the vegetarian meals. We are not full vegetarians but we choose at least 1 a week for our box of 3 meals.  I do not know the first thing about putting a vegetarian meal together so this has been a real time saver. It has also helped us stay healthy and keep the cholesterol down which was becoming a problem.  It's also great not to think about what to cook for dinner, even my husband is getting into cooking now and he has never cooked in our 20 years of marriage. 

The one thing I would improve is the delivery times. Sometimes it comes later at night when we are in bed. I much rather come before 5pm. I have called about it and apparently it is the shipper who delivers to us.  We are on the far end of their route so that is why the shipment is late. Hello Fresh did say they will look into this and possibly try a different shipper.
