[quote=Anonymous]Look at Hello Fresh and/or Gobble. You can order 4 servings per dish and are still likely to have leftovers.  (We often get 3 adult meals from 2 person kits).  We generally order 3 recipes per week (the minimum) but you can go up to 5 or 6, I think.  Sometimes we order 3 from each service.

Decision fatigue and avoiding procurement hassles is precisely why I started down this path (though I also appreciate that the kits have cut down on food waste for us). You still have to do a little planning (choose recipes/customize boxes) but can do it at your convenience for a few minutes every few weeks.

Basically, on the verge of dinner time, you’ve already narrowed the options down to 6 (at most) and you know that all the ingredients and the recipe are at hand. You also know dinner will be ready in 20-40 minutes (Gobble is generally quicker than Hello Fresh — they’ve done more prep work for you).  So I cook more yet spend less time/thought on meals.  It’s been a life/sanity saver during COVID because we’ve stopped eating out.[/quote]
