I could have eaten 8 pounds of that chicken
but the meal was satisfying.

For your leftover broccoli....

I use the sour cream and mayo, add halved green grapes and shredded carrot. And I usually make just half a recipe since I am using broccoli left from something else. And half is just right for me for 2 meals.

Meatloaf à la Mom with Potato Wedges, Broccoli & Gravy
The broccoli was amazing, the potatoes really good, and the meatloaf was good except too much onion. They sent a small yellow onion - half goes in the meatloaf mix, the other half goes in the gravy. They didn't tell me to carmelize the gravy onions but of course you should do that and I should have carmelized the meatloaf onions as well because it was a lot of onion and they still were somewhat crunchy.
This was a super hearty meal and a lot of food. There were no special skills involved, just basic cooking techniques. Oven roasting potatoes and broccoli, making a pan gravy, mixing up a meatloaf. Took maybe 35 minutes from start to plate.

Thank You.
I placed our order this afternoon.
I hope you like it - we're enjoying it so far. If they keep up the good work I can see staying with it.

Just sneakin' around....
I like mine that way, with the crunchy onion.
I didn't try HF, but my co-worker did and liked it! Same reason as you + it was great not having to go shopping for the ingredients. (Her words)
I tried the Every Plate brand. It was great for Thing1. I tend to eat the same things in the summer during the week - grilled Chicken and Salad. I love it and it's my go-to. But the Every Plate worked for Thing1 because it was a variety, and I could make a meal and would have leftovers for him for the next day. I found the food to be fresh and always good, too.
Brown Sugar Bourbon Pork Chops with Apple Pan Sauce, Scallion Mashed Potatoes & Brussels Sprouts
This was a killer meal! Again, nothing fancy, no special cooking skills required, the main attraction is the idea to do it and the portioned out ingredients so you don't have to buy big containers of stuff. The pork chops could have been bigger just because they were so good, but I'm full.
I'm not a huge fruit with meat person but the apple pan sauce was savory and hearty, just a hint of sweet and tart. I'd eat this meal again.

All of this is exactly why I figured you would enjoy at least giving them a try. Even if you end up quitting, it promises to excite you about cooking and flexing your taste palette to boot! My sis was always texting me they had her combining things she never thought would go together only to find out it was the perfect pairing!Brown Sugar Bourbon Pork Chops with Apple Pan Sauce, Scallion Mashed Potatoes & Brussels Sprouts

Why? Is it too much food?

We thought it was, plus, we do cook other things as well. This time of year, I like making soups and grabbing fish from the market.
Yep to both.
I lost my cooking mojo when we were in the motorhome because it was such a hassle and we ate out a lot. I'm enjoying cooking again.
Plus I am trying new things that I'd have never thought to get at the grocery store. Next week is Chimichurri Barramundi with Lemony Carrots & Garlic Couscous. The internet says I'd like barramundi but I'd have never even looked at it before.
I like baking pork cutlets covered in spiced apples.Brown Sugar Bourbon Pork Chops with Apple Pan Sauce, Scallion Mashed Potatoes & Brussels Sprouts

Peanut Chicken Bowl with Garlic Quinoa and Smashed Cucumbers
I'd eat this every day. The cucumbers add a crispness and tart that keeps the peanut chicken from being too heavy.
