"I should try a new recipe."
"I don't have time to cook complicated meals."
"Are my kids too young to learn how to cook?"
Have you ever asked yourself these questions? It seems like my questions related to our evening meal are always more complicated than just: "What's for dinner?"

To try and simplify, I have always wanted to try a meal delivery service. Home Chef did not disappoint. I saw Home Chef as an opportunity not only to make my life a little easier when making dinner but also a chance to share a learning experience with my kids.
When the Home Chef box arrived, our family opened it together and reviewed the recipes and ingredients. We chose which nights we'd eat each meal and stored the bags in the fridge. Everything is conveniently packaged together so you don't lose anything. My daughter was excited to read each menu card, and asked lots of questions about the ingredients and how to cook them.

Customizing our first meal was VERY easy for picky kids — I just left off the tasty basil pesto, sun-dried tomato pesto and mozzarella so that one chicken breast was 'plain' for the kids. Each of my kids did try a few new ingredients with each meal we prepared. My daughter, 6, loved trying fresh lime, and my son, 4, found out he likes zucchini!
Cooking with kids can be a bit of a challenge but Home Chef meals are a great way to start introducing cooking because the ingredients are prepared and there's less time spent on chopping veggies or measuring out spices. It allows them to participate in ways that are appropriate for their age.
