Hello Fresh Review

Here it is! We tried Hello Fresh last week (since it was the perfect addition to our empty fridge and lack of energy to go grocery shopping) and it was amazing. We've already ordered to try it again this week. All of the ingredients we got were super fresh, the recipes were simple and easy to follow, and there were items that we had previously never tried before. 

The first night we made the Creamy Dill Chicken with Green Beans and Roasted Potatoes. The entire recipe took about 30 minutes (including prep) and was super delicious/ easy.

I really loved how each ingredients came in separate paper bags and they gave you a little extra of some of the ingreidents (incase you wanted to add more/ some got misplaced). 

The dill inside was really fresh and when it was made into the sauce, it was SO delicious and gave the chicken just the right hint of creamy dill.

The recipe directions also included re-using the same pan, which I was also a huge fan of. I think it's really important to gather the least amount of dishes as possible! 

They also include 'hall of fame' recipes (this one was), which I really like because it gives you something to look forward to each week! Who doesn't love getting home and seeing a package on their front doorstep?!

Alex cleaned his plate (which I always take as a good sign). The next recipe we decided to try was the Chipote-Glazed Pork Chops with Broccoli and Mashed Potatoes. 

I've never been a huge fan of Pork Chops (we used to have them a lot when I was growing up), but figured I would give this recipe a try. They were REALLY easy to make and the entire cooking process (including prep took less than 35 minutes). 

The pork chops turned out really well and I ate the entire thing (Alex did too...). The meat was really high quality and you could tell the veggies/ingredients that they sent were too. 

Highly recommend giving Hello Fresh a try- leave a comment if you're interested and I'll send you a coupon to get $30 off your first order!
