I like that you actually had beef in two recipes and shrimp!
I think the main draw to this meal service is the price! No recipe cards helps to bring cost down
yeah I definitely think that's part of why they do it, to save money for sure but for me personally, I didn't like that part at all
@@ShannonAndersen they have recipe cards now :) but I feel that! I've been using dinnerly for over 2 years now and they have upgraded a lot so I would love to see a new review
Did you do 2 people meal or 4 people meal when you ordered dinnerly?
we just do 2!
I got marley spoon which is the premium option and the peppers were less than fresh and avocado rock hard. But the whole point of dinnerly is that it is cheap so they save money by not sending recipie cards and bagging it up nicely. So I’d be ok with that aspect
I have a video on Marley Spoon as well! and I was NOT impressed with them either haha
Home Chef is great quality, but they don't have a huge selection and they repeat a lot week to week. I haven't tried Dinnerly yet, but I'm going too. It doesn't bother me to separate my box out. I also don't mind coming up with the extras. I found that I added to Home Chef too. So no biggie there as I keep lots of extras at home. I like meal kits because I don't have to plan meals. I love to cook, hate to plan!!!
im the same way!! love to cook but dont want to have to think of meals and grocery shop haha that's definitely one of the reasons I love the meal kits the most!!
I ordered from Every Plate and had the same problems... veggies were dead andeverything was just thrown in the box... I can't believe that they didn't print out the recipes!!! I was going to try this one you're reviewing and the Martha Stuart box but now I'm not thanks to you and a REAL review!! Thanks so much! Saved me over 1
$150
I'm glad I could save you some time and money and hassle!! I definitely recommend Home Chef the most if you're still on the hunt for a really good one!
We have been doing hello fresh for about 1 year now and they have been amazing. I was considering trying Dinnerly, but I don't think I will now. Your video was very helpful.
ahh I am so glad this was helpful!! I would honestly stick with hell fresh if I were you!
Welllllll hopefully if you do order from Dinnerly again I really hope it goes well I actually work there (don’t tell anyone lol) but we have a new line running for Marley and Dinnerly and since then complaints from customers had went down ALSO theres a lot if new people we’re doing our best💘
your secret is safe with me!! haha but that is so good to know, thank you for the inside scoop!! I would totally consider giving it another try knowing some changes have been made to improve things! I'm always open to second chances, and im sure you are doing great!! thanks for watching🤗
I had been considering trying them. Thank you so much for your brutally honest review. I have decided to find something else. 😝
you are welcome! I'm glad it was helpful!
I got my first box and it was really good.
yay good!!
Was it all together in the box not separated and no recipe cards?
I'm glad I saw this review before I ordered. Have you tried the Thistle delivery service?
I have not tried that one actually!! I should check it out, I love trying new ones!
I know how to cook different kinds of dushes from many countries so I don't need recipes just healthy food and smaller portions. I have alot of herbs and spices because I love to cook. I enjoyed your reveiw and love your personality.
ahh, thank you so so much!!
Just ordered this, we'll see how it goes next week 🤷♂️
enjoy!!🤗
How's it go
how did you like it?
@@rachealfaucher4520 it's a lot of work
Thanks for the vid.. def saved me from a big head ache
ah good!! I'm so glad it helped you!!
I’m trying my first one now it’s popping
enjoy!!
I think a lot of the service consider salt, pepper, oils and butter as Staples you would have
Thank you for sharing this video! I honestly would like to consider doing dinnerly since it is the cheapest meal kit they have on the market. My pharmacist is also using dinnerly but she did not tell me the pros and cons for the meal kit. I think it is cheap because the recipe card is not included. I recently ordered Martha Stewart, I am only willing to try it the first time and see how it will turn out.
You might want to try EveryPlate their MAX price is 4.99 per serving but there’s usually a discount making it 1.47$ per meal. However they expect you to have a little more on hand
I heard Hello Fresh and EveryPlate are sister companies and it seems like they are exactly the same except the price. So if you don't like one program chances are you aren't going to like the cheaper version either. I definitely reccomend Everyplate for the price.
they are! I don't think I knew that back when I filmed lots of these videos but I agree, everyplate is awesome for the price!
I actually really like Dinnerly. I like it because of the cost (super reasonable), lots of choices, yummy foods - the recipes do taste really good, All of the recipes are about 5-6 ingredients. You can print out the recipe cards. What I enjoy about Dinnerly is having food come to me so I really don't have to plan out 3 meals per week. I would also say that the kit for 2 people is plenty of food. There are definitely corners that are cut because of the cost... however... I do like having easy yummy recipes to make 3 nights per week. The meals take about 30 minutes and aren't overly complicated.
I have used Hello Fresh in the past and although it was very tasty it was much too fancy/complicated for me to make after working a long day. Another thing I have been doing lately to help with cooking is going to the grocery stores meat department and getting 3 dinners of prepped foods (chicken kabobs, beef and veggie fajitas, chicken tenders, meatloaf, burgers). This is helpful because the meal is pretty much already prepped for you and there is no thought in figuring out what you need to make. I hate not knowing what to make for dinner and I tend to run out of quick and simple dinner ideas quickly.
Dinnerly does let you choose what you are going to order for the week... several weeks in advance. You'll have access to the entire recipes and ingredients you'll need to have at home/what they are sending.
Yes, if they had pictures with the steps that would be very helpful. I'll have to try Home Chef at some point!
It is a big deal that wet packs of meat are mixed with vegetables. That sounds gross and can cause mold. I have a coupon code, but I don't think I'll mess with it now.
Is it a one time payment or monthly
you just pay for whichever boxes you choose
It doesn't seem that bad so far to me...
a lot of this packaging is to cut down on costs. they expect us to not be idiots and to be able to figure it out. A lot of people meal plan and shop for their ingredients themselves, and don't put them in cute little bags or boxes to make sure they have everything in one place. And as for the milk and butter stuff, those are STAPLES literally anyone has that kind of stuff in their pantry or fridge already. That's not an issue. You literally have the expectation of a personal chef with these meal services and that's not what they are. You are just too high maintenance for things like this. Just go to Whole Foods, and make your dinner
haha okay well while I appreciate your input, there are many meal services that DO sort things out for you and provide milk and butter because contrary to your statement, many people DONT keep those things on hand. My expectation that fairly pricey meal services include everything needed is based on my experience with other meal services that do just that. Especially for the cost. So it's not unrealistic, it's not what Dinnerly does. Not sure if you like, work there or something to feel so defensive but it just didn't work out for me & that's okay! they can't please everyone! thanks for watching!
Try blue apron
You said "Martha Spoon" .. Did you mean Marley Spoon..? Australia only gets Marley Spoon and my experience has been pretty good..
definitely meant Marley Spoon! Martha Stewart is like the owner or whatever who that's probably why I got confused lol
ohhhhhhhhh noooooooooooooo!!! thanks for taking one for the team and for your honest review..
of course!! that's what I'm here for haha
Hmm im watching all the reviews i can cuz im up in the mountains and i cant just run to the store rq
Thank you for saving me from ordering.
you are welcome! glad I could help!
Same!!
its not meatloaf casserole its called something else for real like Sheppard's pie
I totally agree with this review. When I opened the box everything was dumped in there.
ahh what a bummer you had this same experience! I'm hoping they're starting to make changes to make it better for the customer
Just a suggestion - next time please start recording and THEN open the box so the viewers that click on your video for a visual can actually get one. Showing an empty box with verbal description does nothing.
yeah I obviously didn't anticipate it being such a shit show which is why I didn't do it that way. I didn't think taking bags out of a box was going to be interesting content. But im pretty sure a verbal description does *something* - it explains what happened, which is valuable in itself. but thanks for watching🤗
I was hoping you would tell the price.
the price varies depending on how many servings you get and what meals you select!
Actually i just got the dinner for 70 bucks a week for 4 servings for 4 meals the home chef one was like double that
same
Who doesn't own a potato masher?
I hate you have to pay before you choose the meals.
yeah I dont love that either but you can always look up the meals being offered for the week you're choosing in a separate web browser tab just to see what your choices are and then go back to the payment page after you know there are some options you'd like!
Do you like beer? 🍺
I LOVE beer
@@ShannonAndersen can you do a beer shotgunning video? 😊🍻
@@the8419 Don't be a creep
good review but you got to chance those pans! I hope you didn't eat what you scratched off its pure poison :(
we've gotten new pans since this video was posted!! no worries!
Yeah. You're definitely not supposed to use any metals in those types of pans. Anything with a nonstick coating has to have plastic, silicone or wood. My mom used a metal spoon in her pot and I wanted to yell.
That is so weird that they just throw everything in a box and they don't even have recipe cards.
omg the weirdest... never again lol
You can print the recipe cards from the email they send and tell you on the website they have no recipe cards sent.
@@63076topher not everyone has a printer
@@notsurex Than they shouldn't order a meal delivery service that say right on their website that they DO NOT send recipe cards and that is how they cut costs and why you save money
This is a cheap delivery box. In order for you to pay half of what other boxes charge, you have to deal with slight inconveniences. I just pull it up my phone.
So wait. Is it an HONEST FAIL
Or oh wait. I underestimated and it’s pretty good.
Or wait. It’s a little bit above average?
there were parts that were a fail as you saw with the quality of the food and the recipe cards and such. but the recipes themselves & the flavors weren't terrible. so its a little bit of all of those🤗 thanks for watching!!
No offense but you prepared everything incorrectly. .
I followed the directions🤷🏻♀️
Gross! You'd think that there would be some quality control with the price of meal kits! And providing only phone instructions with no step photographs is so lame! And having to use my own ingredients -- ick! As a side note, it's the first time I've ever heard someone describe a broccoli dish as "intense!" lol!!!
hahaha good observation😂but ugh yeah it was definitely not a good experience... as you can probably tell there's really not much going for this box at all🙄
I mean, that is why dinnerly is cheaper.. and the ingredients you have to add yourselves are usually things you already have in your home. Dinnerly is made as a budget box, easier meals with less ingredients.
Everyplate is just as bad...
Can these videos be shorter and straight to the point? Like start without "heyy welcome back to my channel blah blah blah....."???
nope, they cant! sorry!
Oh wow is this THE Dina Sullivan?! She must be so honored to have you watching her videos that she’ll change her whole format and personality and tailor every word to your liking, from now on. Oh wait, you’re actually not that important. I guess you’ll just have to skip a few seconds (how painful) or just find something else to watch that doesn’t offend your short attention span.
Yeah I had to fast forward
@@MJ-gm7km blah blah blah 90% of viewers already start watching videos on 2-3rd min
I always skipped forward
