Do you tire of limited takeout options? Or do you try to cook healthy at home, but struggle with ideas and having all the ingredients on hand?
Then you’re going to love Hello Fresh! Hello Fresh is the leading recipe kit delivery service, and as of September 16, 2014 – it’s now available in all of the contiguous United Statesto deliver right to your front door .
“Hello Fresh” Recipe Kit Delivery ~ How It Works
Hello Fresh can ship you 3 meals per week, right to your house. Simply check out the Hello Fresh website to sign up, and you’ll be offered the choice of:
- 2 or 4 servings
- Veggie box or Classic box
Your kit will arrive in about a week to your front door, and will include everything you need: chilled, fresh vegetables; meats (if Classic box); and all the pre-measured spices, fresh herbs, or flavoring ingredients needed to prepare a fresh, delicious, and healthy meal right at home. Beautiful, full color recipe cards are included with easy instructions for each meal.
Each week there are different menus for you to select from. Simply select your favorite three recipes that you’d like to try. Delivery is free.
Now when it’s supper time at the end of your busy day… you’ll be able to cook your yummy “Hello Fresh” menu in 30 minutes or less! This is such a fun and easy way to cook, my family absolutely loved it. Let me show you what to expect.
“Hello Fresh” Classic Box ~ Kit Contents
My family tried out a Hello Fresh Classic box. I was so impressed when our shipment arrived.
As an extra surprise gift welcoming me to Hello Fresh, they included a really nice canvas apron.
And now for the reveal… Well, hello fresh!
Items were contained in an interior Styrofoam container with four ice packs, were still chilled, and in good shape. Here are the impressive contents all laid out.
Ingredients for three meals, including fresh meats, lots and lots of vegetables, some canned goods, tortillas and whole grain buns, sour cream packets, fresh herbs, cheeses, condiments, and spices.
Also included are glossy recipe cards for each meal, which are very easy to follow, and worthy of saving.
Top notice service and quality. We’re on the right track here, people! Now let’s see how the meals turned out.
“Hello Fresh” Classic Box ~ The Menus
We tried out the 4 serving box, and once prepared, we felt the portions were very generous. The diversity of the recipes included were such a welcome change from our typical fare. Every meal from our 3-menu box was delicious!
Menu #1: Lomo Saltado over Roasted Potatoes
This was my children’s favorite, as they are little carnivores and it featured thin, tasty strips of tender steak. I wasn’t sure what to expect based on the ingredient combination, but the flavors all came together nicely, and we all loved it.
Menu #2: Yellow Squash and Black Bean Tostada
Why has it never occurred to me to slice the corn right off of a fresh ear, and saute it up? Well, thankfully it occurred to Hello Fresh. This dish was wonderful, and the sweet corn still incredibly sweet. A new family favorite for us!
Menu #3: Turkey and Spinach Burgers (with side of Sweet Potato Fries)
Talk about knowing how to jazz up the flavor of a turkey burger! These patties combined feta and fresh [cooked] spinach, and I relished eating the leftovers for the following 2 days. Baking the sweet potato fries was easy and proved to be a healthy, deliciousaccompaniment.
Our Hello Fresh experience was fantastic, and we highly recommend it to all! The convenience obviously can’t be beat, and the cost is comparable to purchasing take-out food.
And on that note… if you’d like to try Hello Fresh for yourself – take advantage of this promotion they are running!

Arabs make burgers like none I’ve ever had. I remember the first time I had a barbecue with my Arabic instructors from university, and I’ve been chasing that flavor ever since.
That being said, I’d love to try the Moroccan burgers.
