While we really enjoy dining out and trying out restaurants in New York City, on weeknights, I'm all about home cooked meals. It's cheaper and healthier since I'm able to use fresh and good ingredients. Most weeks I'm pretty good about meal planning and grocery shopping but sometimes when I get busy with work or it's just too hot to turn on the stove, I end up improvising and just throwing quick something together or we order something from Seamless (food delivery service). I've tried recipe meal kit services where pre-measured ingredients are delivered to your door and you just have to cook them but in some cases I found that the meals took even longer to prep than a dinner I would make from scratch which kind of defeated the purpose.When CookUnity reached out to me a few weeks ago and introduced their service, they got my attention. They partner with local chefs who prepare fresh homemade meals with farm-fresh ingredients. These chefs create specialty dishes featuring an intersection of timeless classics and reimagined recipes. The menu items utilize local and organic ingredients and are balanced both for nutrition and taste.
This definitely sounded appealing so I gave it try. When you go to the Cookunity site, you're presented with their weekly menu which typically consists of two adult meal options and one kids' meal option for each day. One of the adult meals is usually vegetarian friendly. The cuisine choices vary and include authentic meals from different regions of the world. All meals are clearly labeled if they meet certain dietary restrictions like gluten-free, dairy-free, nut-free, etc. and you can see exactly what goes into each dish. I added my choices, chose a delivery window, entered my address and sat back and waited for my food.
