The often struggle is trying to get enough meals in, making them healthy decisions and fresh ingredients. For working mothers, or just working individuals in general cooking and preparing your own meals can be hard to come by with time restraints. We live in a world where being busy is glorified and being healthy is the new "in" thing. But being busy and healthy doesn't have to be impossible. It doesn't have to be one or the other, it can very much be both. 


Companies like Blue Apron and Hello Fresh, to name a couple are popping up all over. Whether they are in corporate companies or Mom and Pop shops in your town, meal services have never been easier. With companies like this you pay for a certain amount of meals a week, how many people it can feed and fresh ingredients get delievered to your doorstep. What could be better then that? Your box of fresh ingredients come with instructions and already measured out spices, sauces and garnishes. All you have to do is put it together and serve. While I'm all about the easier route, sometimes its best to take the road less traveled by. It's great to have food delievered to your doorstep but of course it comes with a price. So here are my pros and cons;

Pros: 
-No food shopping
-Delievered right to your house
-Directions are given, so no thought out process on what to cook 
-Feeds 2-4 people so enough for your whole family or a few meals for yourself through the week 
-Fresh ingredients 
-Teaches you how to cook 
​
Cons:
-More expensive then shopping for your own ingredients
-May not feed enough people (for large groups/families)
-Can be time consuming 
-Not knowing specifically where ingredients come from 
-Reciepes although are fresh ingredients may be high in fat, sodium or calories 
-Not as much recommended if watching weight or eating specific for dietary needs
