HelloFresh Meal Planning for mum life

Raising babies is no joke- with how busy life becomes and any moment however small you have that is alone time you want to be relaxing not slaving away over the stove. HelloFresh has given my family freedom, speed and flexibility with how easy it has been to cook more balanced meals.

We’ve tried quite a few recipes now and they really do make it so much easier to cook and any stress of meal planning has gone!

I’ve ordered mine so my box comes on a Thursday when we are in so we don’t have to worry about deliver and we’ve signed up for 5 meals a week. HelloFresh gives you a rough meal guide but you can switch out recipes for others if what they suggest isn’t what you’re looking for.

As my family has grown finding the time to make nutritious meals can feel a bit daunting, but using HelloFresh has really helped me expand our knowledge of cooking and has increased the amount my partner also cooks with the easy to follow recipies.

HelloFresh Subscription

With HelloFresh being a subscription service it is easy to see what we are spending on food and has helped us manage our money and spending. One of the reasons I enjoy using the app is that you can pause your subscription at any time so for example with Christmas coming up I will need a lot less meals as we’ll be spending more time at my sons Grandparents houses.

Variety?

HelloFresh has lots of new things to try that I wouldn’t have even thought of trying to cook before and also keeps adding new things, for December with the Willy Wonka film coming out they have created a whole new menu inspired by the film.

Does HelloFresh cater for Intolerance or Allergies?

HelloFresh also makes it easy to deal with things like allergies and intolerances, as each ingredient is individually wrapped it makes it easy to just take out and not use what you can’t have or even cook it separately for someone else. You can also check what each meal contains by clicking on it in the app to see the ingredients.

The benefits of HelloFresh

I am so glad we changed to a subscription service as I no longer have to worry about planning the meals or finding time to do a big shop at the supermarket. I can now just go buy toiletries, food to make into puree for my son and lunch / breakfast bits. It’s more than halved my time in food shops and means I can just dash in for 20 mins grabbing the essentials.

It’s time consuming enough making baby food the last thing I want to do after making my son food is to then worry about what I can make us. Now I can just grab a bag from the fridge and cook something in under 20mins as it’s delicious rather than just giving up and making cheesy pasta or throwing in a pizza.

Having the ingrediants and recipie has made is easy but also that it is all weighed out for you makes it easy and the wide range of choices, you can expand your learning in things like street food and winter warmers.
