Don't judge the OP! Some people don't enjoy cooking and find it stressful.
Here's the thing though- take out isn't healthy- typically a lot of added salt, fat, etc. plus you have no knowledge of where the food was sourced.
I can't help you with chef suggestions...but if you would learn to bake two (easy peasy) dishes - baked chicken and baked fish, serve each with some pre-cut veggies or fruit and a whole grain roll. Add a ground turkey taco night- you can buy seasoning or make it in three minute with common spices. I can send you my kid friendly easy recipe, if you like. That's three nights. Then, go to Wholefoods say 2 more times per week for their bistro dinner take out. One night per week, serve breakfast food for dinner- pre-cut fruit, scrambled eggs, whole grain toaster waffles or plain toast. On the seventh night, rest- feed the kids something simple/healthy, send them to bed and eat your favorite take out.
This is guaranteed to save you nearly 2k per month- plan a Caribbean vacation with funds to spare.

Should have prefaced this all by saying I "get" not enjoying cooking. I don't think I will ever "love" cooking, but for our HHI it is a necessity. I gave you my "don't want to cook" meal plan when we can't spend a lot of money eating out.

Scratch DC is also a good option. They deliver dinners that are completely prepped but not cooked. That way you can control how much salt you add, etc, and your dinner is actually fresh cooked. You have just illuminated the figuring out what to make, shopping, and prep work. Plus, if you are not an experienced cook, it is a good way to practice cooking skills in a structured setup with simple, straight forward directions.

Also it is good for getting out of cooking ruts because it gets you making stuff you haven't made before.

Op are you going to rely on a personal chef for the rest of your life? I get that you don't like cooking. A lot of people don't, but this is a life skill that you might want to learn.

My cousin grew up on take out because my Aunt never learned to cook. Today, she is extremely overweight, because she eats fast food, take out, and cheap and easy snacks. I feel so bad for her. Her quality of life sucks! She never married and does not have children of her own. She lives in an apartment that is a complete mess. (Apparently my Aunt never learned how to clean either.) she has no idea what healthy food is.

All I am saying is you might want to have someone come to your house to teach you. Over time, you will be able to make your own recipes and control your ingredients. You can also get your kids involved in this valuable life skill. In the long run it will have a huge positive impact on your family.

OP, with the money you are spending you may be better off hiring a housekeeper who could help with the cooking, grocery shopping etc. That may end up being more cost effective.
