So I know most of us have sticker shock BUT $150 is $50 per meal which makes each serving $8.33 for a plate for a family of 6.
We are a family of 5 and if we go out to eat McDonald's can't even give me that. It is so worth the not planning and trying new things. Like you said a weekly thing no but an as needed thing I think it's so worth it.
Yes! I knew the total price was going to look high to everyone but it’s really not that bad when you break it down 😉
I totally agree! My family eats out more than I cook and it’s definitely much more expensive even at Mc Donald’s when buying for my family of 4 & sometimes 6 depending on how many of my kids are home. I’d much rather pay the $150 for the convenience and quality food.
All the meals looked super delicious! I love how they had everything sorted and labeled.
I hope you’ll do a breakdown of pro and cons for each box at the end of the series and your give like your top 3 picks after you’ve had a chance to try all the boxes. Tyfs 😊❤️👍🏼
I’ve been interested in this one! Thanks for sharing and showing how it comes and your honest review!!
Thanks for reviewing this one. My son has been looking at this one.
Oh my goodness!! My mouth is watering just watching this vlog. I definitely got to check them out. Everything looked delicious.
That shrimp looked super delicious. Now I'm wanting shrimp this week. Lol. Great video as always. Thanks for sharing with us!
I love these meal deals because I like to try new things but hate to buy a whole container of an expensive new spice that i may not turn out to like using. Boxed meals let you try things you wouldn't ordinarily. Thanks for reviewing them. Helpful!
I made two of the same meals this week! I love Home Chef, but I’m only feeding my husband and myself.
Thanks great review!
Every thing looks really good !
how has the cookbook done since being published? maybe do videos cooking out of it.
TFS! Good info.❤️
Great review
I’d like to try home chef because the internet says a lot of good things about the service but I live alone and the minimum order starts at 2 people. I don’t want to have to store the extra meals for more than a day or two because of freshness.
I totally get it now. Making your own and spending the money verses saving money buying your own groceries and making your own. It really didn't hit me till last night. Normally I shop and making everything. Today is my daughters birthday and instead of baking cupcakes for her class I bought them. I could have made them for less then $5.00 but I went to the store and spent $15.99. I am also guilty of using walmart grocery pick up because sometimes I don't want to go in the store. Yes I am a stay at home mom but some priorities go over others. It's getting into the busy farming time of the year and sometimes you have to make a choice spend more time in the fields or stop what your doing and go make dinner. I get it!!
The price doesn't seem that high. Here in Canada if I get Hello Fresh delivered (3 meals for 2) it's $80!
I love Home Chef. We have been receiving them for about 7 or 8 weeks now. Yes it is a little more money, but I would buy ingredients to make recipes and never use the ingredients again and end up throwing them out. So I have noticed that I waste a lot less food, grocery bills are a little lower and the convenience is a no brained.
Have you done it 7-8 weeks consistently or do you skip weeks ? I hate the planning and shopping for the ingredients that like you said I will use for one recipe and then waste. Plus I always spend more at the grocery because I buy things I see and don’t need 😬 I think this is gonna be perfect
So true! I actually spend less at the grocery store and have restaurant style meal that is healthy!
I have to say it looked good, but it is way out of my budget. I am on a small fixed income so it would not be for me, it was fun to see. Thanks for sharing. I will be looking forward to your next video until then please take care and God bless.
They do so many deals that make it worth it. Got half off for a month. This is 4.50 a serving. I'm a single guy living alone so I get 3 meals, 6 servings a week for 27 bucks. I don't eat both servings in one go and always have leftovers so it's enough to feed me for basically 2.5-3 days for like 30 bucks. Not bad.
I think the portion sizes would be to small for us. When you are feeding a construction worker who burns a lot of calories building houses. I would have to order 2 extra meals. Lol
I have a Groupon code for $24 for Three meals for Two. Normal weekly price quotes at $60./week. As long as I can tailor deliveries and control prices (and keep ;ppking for coupons) it might not be too bad. I can certainly cook, but the process of shopping, then all the prep work at home? I find often a percentage of what I buy at the SuperMarket goes to waste, and that's not good.
The food did look delicious.
My takeaway was: WHAT!!! You can use the chopper tool to make mashed potatoes?!?!
I have to try that!
Lol! That was actually my first time trying that 😂 I really didn’t want to pull out my hand mixer and I knew I wanted it to be a little chunkier.
I have been making Home Chef meals for more than two years. The meals are healthy, nutritious and delicious! My daughter and son in law both love Home Chef. They say it’s the healthiest food that they have ever had! That says a lot about the quality and quantity of food. I HIGHLY recommend Home Chef!
ALL LOOKED GOOD...YUMMY DELICIOUS. MOUTH WATERING....THAT SHRIMP THOUGH....OMG.......NOW I WANT SHRIMP....
Home chef is my favorite ❤️
I’ll definitely be ordering from them again!
I love that they have carb conscious options too... the recipe will have a little bread picture on it for those that are watching the carb intake! 😊 thanks for sharing!
I've tried home chef and the meals r so delicious but the sodium content is so high.they have prepackaged seasoning packets and I think that's where the sodium is.
Thanks for Sharing home Chef, I’m so confused to try this but for for 2 people to cook for we usually waste at least 1/2 of every meal & the food I cook has so many seasoning’s that I may use 1-2 times & seasoning’s are very expensive, so I’m going to try to order or go to KROGERS & buy a few meals & try going that way, Thanks again
great video
I was checking out Costco online and discovered Schwan's has several ready-to-heat & serve options. Check it out! I'd like to see you do a Schwan's meal review if you want that is. :)
That moment you get the notification and click out of a different youtuber for you lol
You are awesome 🥰
Lol I did that too.
same haha
Hey Hey from SATX, I just got my 2nd box :-)
Awesome! Hope you like them!
What is the website you use that searches for coupons?
bryn B it’s called honey! Just add it as an extension to your browser
I have purchased three times. 2 out of 3 have missed ingredients. So fustrated. How can I cook mashed potatos without potatos?
That's 115$ for two meals? Is that for one week or did you pay for full month at with two meals coming per week?
I just can't justify to myself or anyone else paying $150 for three meals. It looks awesome and fresh.
I got 3 meals and they were only 39.70 for the first 3 month and then it will be 59.99. That if for 2 of us. I think that’s very reasonable.
@@korinascott how did you get yours to be only 39 for the first 3?
Deasha Ramsey they had a promotion when I joined. I’m not sure if they still have it?? It was $80 off first 4 boxes I believe- is about $20 off each box.
@@korinascott They do still have it even now. I'm considering signing up, and ours comes out to $44 for the first 4 weeks ($20 off each week). That's for 2 people, 3x a week, so 6 meals total). That's pretty great IF the food and service do turn out to be as good for us.
@@mgarcia2445 I'm so sorry I think I said months when I meant weeks!!! I love Home Chef! Ive tried others delivery services and always come back to them. I try to eat fairly low carb and healthy so the weeks I skip are ones I have trouble substituting...but that's due to my strict diet
So I was curious and checked how much 6 meals with 6 servings without a code is, $358.20. Which is a lot but for many but you pay for convenience. Way to high for me but all the recipes look yummy.
That's $9.95 a meal not to bad in my eyes
When you only make that a week its a lot
Already on fs and 18 k isnt our total income just mine.
I always cook my corn in aluminum foil on the grill so it doesn't burn!!
We tried Home Chef meals (for two) through a grocery store. The instructions usually list four to six steps, but each step actually has three or more substeps, so it's misleading.
My daughter is the chef using the product. She learned a bit about the cooking process and liked the meals. She pointed out, as a new cook, that the steps weren't exactly clear or as simple as stated.
🙌❤️
😊💙
Question. One; were you paid by this company for your review? Two; for a more honest review why didn’t you show all six portions together individually on standard dinner plates (6plates six meals in one photo)? I have observed many reviews for this company. It is for people who don’t usually cook, or claim to not be able to. Being American, our portions, I will admit are larger. Depends on the person I suppose. That being said, would you recommend this, honestly to a home with six adults?
Gigi, I was not paid for this review. Nor did they send me the product for free. There is a difference. I paid for it myself. Food was good but is probably not enough for six adults. With having three smaller children, the quantity works for us. However, it’s also not something I would rely on all or most of the time. I would usually only get a service like this when I know I need it due to busy schedules or wanting to try something I wouldn’t normally think to make. Definitely not a replacement for going to the store and cooking myself.
Where is the discount code????
Wow! The meals look awesome! Yes your going to pay more for convenience! And if u go to the store it maybe a little cheaper, but your saving your time and sanity!! I have a fam of 8 and sometimes I don’t like going to the store! I’m sure some of you can relate!!!!😀
I will need to check this out!
Do you have to keep the subscription if you order once?

It would be interesting to know how much you save compared to doing the home chef..they prob charge more for packaging and shipping I would think!
Dinnerly will change your entire order at their discretion. I purchased this for my 21 year old son. The orders were selected to be simple to prepare and things he would like. The order was changed without our knowledge. Emails weresent from Dinnerly with a subject line saying "Get excited for next weeks recipes! Choose your next tasty dinners." Since we had already chosen the meals, there was no reason to pay attention to the emails. Even if you did click on the emails, it just shows please click here to update your box, NO CLEAR STATEMENT THAT WE CHANGED YOUR ORDER TO OUR CHEFS SELECTION FOR YOU. Finally the 1st email came on the 5th and by the 6th Dinnerly had already processed the order. Called them and they said so sorry, but cut-off date has passed and your credit card has been charged. They told me they were sorry but there was nothing they could do. We cancelled all future orders, and will contact our credit card company to dispute. Don't go with them, just not worth it. Also, in order for Dinnerly to keep cost down they do not print recipe cards, you have to go online for them, also you must have extra supplies at home to complete meal. So it can be complicated to make everything, you can just as easily go to the grocery and find your own recipes online.
Everytime I see stuff like this I'm like why didn't I think of this million-dollar idea!!??? Ughhh!! Lol
Same here!
Me too!
They don't factor all the work doing dishes.
Obviously this is for rich or upper middle class people no way I could afford this or anyone I know..I mean you get you make out cheaper if you went to the grocery store honestly but people want to pay for convenienceI suppose but can you imagine what you would be spending a month on this I mean that's like a rent payment hell no. I already AVERAGE about 600$ a month on food for three people in my household..
Certainly not intended for all your meals all the time. I was curious about these services and decided to spend a month-ish trying them out. The convenience can be nice when it’s the exception and not the rule.
Ridiculous! I cook every day. I can make that shrimp linguine for 6 for around 8 bucks total. Same with the rest. I suppose if you are comparing to going for fast food than yeah maybe. But if you're cooking at home you can fill up a shopping cart at Aldi for 150.00. And eat well for 2 weeks.
Not where I live you can’t. The shrimp alone is $8. But yes, you can probably make it a little cheaper than what they charge.
Fresh shrimp? Unless you are buying them at the source (on the coast which I have done) you aren't getting probably what is 2 lbs of peeled shrimp for $8.
Yes she could source the ingredients herself but she is trying this out so she knows what's out there. She is reviewing this on her own dime for her viewers.
If you don't want to watch this series because the meal delivery kits are too pricey, don't click on the videos!
Wow what area do you live that has shrimp so cheap? My Aldi has shrimp ranging anywhere between $6-8 a bag. We love it so I use about 2-3 bags for a pasta dish like that. For convenience it is worth it especially if you do the quick meals or the meals labeled as lunch. I know that when we have rough months as far as time we eat out at least 2x a wk which is not good.
Bullshit. Shimp alone is $7.99 a lb. Unless you only use 3 shrimp per dish, no it's not that cheap.
Why did you disable likes?
You can still like or dislike the video. I was just tired of seeing the few people who come to my videos only to hit the dislike button. So I disabled displaying the number of each.
I was on their site right now but chickened out because they force you to sign up before seeing the meals that they offer.
Just go to homechef.com and click on Our Menu. It's all there to see without signing up
Hey there Vanessa, happy Monday friend. First, I pray you and your family are all safe and ok. I've seen recently that Texas is getting slammed with bad weather and I always think of you guys when I see it!! Second, home chef seems to be the most popular, but also the most expensive especially for larger families. Food always looks amazing though. Just way to expensive for my income. I really appreciate you reviewing all these for us.
We are ok! Some bad storms but nothing too serious. That's one reason why I wanted to try Home Chef for myself, everyone seems to love it. I definitely agree with them :)
@@LifebyVanessa so glad your family is ok. Have a great day
2 meals for $119... I’m definitely sticking to UberEats
HOME CHEF. because shopping is HARD!!! 😣
