So many people fight the traffic and come home from work tired and hungry. You want to feed your family well but the idea of chopping and prepping a real meal for your family is daunting. Add hungry kids to the formula and it\u2019s a bigger challenge. Decision time. Few, if any, good options.<\/p>\n
Restaurants on a weeknight? Pack the family in the minivan, wait for your table with hungry tired kids. Then you\u2019re presented with a menu & it\u2019s hard to stick to healthy options. You leave after eating foods you\u2019d be better off avoiding, and likely paid more than you planned on spending. The evening is done & that homework still needs done. Or else, a green slip is headed your way from the teacher.<\/p>\n
You could opt for home delivery like pizza, which is always a crowd pleaser. But you can\u2019t feed your family pizza 4 times a week. Now there are options like Uber Eats, Doordash or GrubHub to help. Those help fill a gap on a busy night but it\u2019s far from a long term solution. You\u2019re going to blow your budget on delivery fees and once again your feeding your family less than healthy options.<\/p>\n
Prepared meals are the go-to for a lot of busy folks. Many grocery stores offer meal kits or premade options. Although they are slightly healthier than pizza, you\u2019re likely to get burnt out quickly on the limited menu options week after week. Most stores offer 3-5 options for this, and even if they are healthy and budget friendly and easy to cook, you\u2019re going to find yourself dying for a little variety on your plate.<\/p>\n
Of course, there are meal kit delivery choices. This eliminates some work, with less grocery shopping and expanded menu choices. But they tend to be light on the leftovers and they don\u2019t really free up your time. The menu might be decided, but you\u2019re still the one chopping and cooking after a long day of work. Not to mention the pile of dishes waiting for you after dinner. They also don\u2019t eliminate grocery shopping all together. You\u2019re still going to be heading to the store every few days for staples like milk and fruit. And those subscriptions don\u2019t manage themselves make sure to set an alarm on your phone to set your menu every week, and don\u2019t forget about when the auto withdraw comes out of your bank account.<\/p>\n
Cooked & frozen meal delivery services are an option. But even though you might be ordering your food based on beautifully plated pictures on a website, what you receive is going to look more like something from a cafeteria. Of course, it\u2019s still chef prepared and that alone might be a big step up if you aren\u2019t yourself a culinary master. Just don\u2019t forget to budget for delivery fees here too. And the meals are shipped from afar in bulky boxes. Who knows when they were cooked?<\/p>\n
Grocery delivery services like insta cart are good way to keep your fridge stocked with all the healthy options you want to have on hand. But they can\u2019t give you the motivation to cook at the end of a long day.<\/p>\n
