But seriously. SO OVER IT.
Not to mention the lines at Costco. On a Sunday. *eyeroll*
So I started searching for anyway to avoid it and came across Chefs Plate.
I had never had a meal delivery service before but loved the idea of Chefs Plate. They deliver recipes and ALL the groceries that go along with those recipes right to your door. PLUS it’s not just in Calgary… they deliver to Alberta, Ontario, British Columbia, & Manitoba and they are expanding quickly.
So you still cook it AKA it’s fresh for whichever day you want to make it but the prep is cut in half. Maybe even more than half.
NOT TO MENTION the number of times I’ve forgotten something I’ve needed for a recipe and sat on my kitchen counter googling substitutions.
Thank goodness for Chefs Plate.
SO it’s delivered in an insulated box and each recipe ingredients are in one bag.
When you open one of the bags, each of the INGREDIENTS is perfectly portioned out ALREADY. Genius.
Yeah, I do the chopping etc. but the vinegar, salad toppings, cornmeal is all pre portioned and placed into LABELLED baggies.
It’s idiot proof. I like idiot proof.
After a long day of work the last thing you want to do is take another hour shopping, measuring and preparing dinner.
My two recipes this week were CORNMEAL CRUSTED FISH BURGERS and BRAZILIAN STEAK SKEWERS.
BOTH of them were absolutely amazing. I’m NOT lying. Honestly so freaking good I would re make both of these in a heart beat.
I even shared with my neighbours {how nice am I?} and they ALL loved it.
LOOK at that portioned out cornmeal and champagne vinaigrette. YESYESYES.
My gf Jessie gets Chefs Plate too and she told me that every recipe has been unreal. The food is always dynamite.
I’m fully hooked.
