[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Home Chef has some options for “family meals” that serve four people. I just made a peanut noodle, chicken and vegetable dish from there that ended up being six pretty hefty servings.

Their meals often require less chopping and prep work than some of the other meal out companies. [/quote]

I also use Home Chef and like it.  I get it op - it’s nice for a couple of nights a week to not have to plan a meal.  And I found it’s expanded our horizons and given us new meals to put in our regular rotation.

I do sometimes supplement the meal, like add a side or bread, just to stretch it a bit farther.  I only have one teenage boy to feed though!  [b]I’ll also say it always takes about double the amount of time to cook as is stated on the recipe card. [/b] But I cook alone, if your dh or one of your kids helps out, it would be less than that I’m sure.  [/quote]
The bolded, for sure. I like Home Chef and am generally pleased with their portion sizes, but I’m feeding myself and two teenaged daughters. Some meals have huge portions, only a few have portions that seem too small, but the vast majority seem about right for an adult who is not dieting. They would not fill up teenaged boys, though. For two adults and 3 teenaged boys, you’d probably need to order 8 servings, which would run you roughly $100 per meal and would be unwieldy because you’d be using so many burners simultaneously or would need double ovens.
