Simplifying Dinner: Meal Delivery Services

Do you ever just get tired of having to think about, plan, organize, shop for and then prepare dinner 7 days a week? I certainly do! Here are some cool meal delivery services that use fresh, local and organic foods.

1. The Gourmet Neighbor
Monday through Thursday, you can pick up or have the Gourmet Neighbor deliver a complete, nutritious and delicious meal using the best local and seasonal ingredients with an emphasis on Organic produce. Just re-heat and serve.

Sample meal:
Grilled Chicken Pasta - Whole wheat Penne pasta tossed with homemade pesto, julienned sun dried tomatoes, and tender grilled boneless skinless chicken breast strips. With a crisp caesar salad.

2. Little Spoonfuls
Little Spoonfuls is unique in that they have menus geared toward toddler meals, baby pureed foods and family meals with a variety of main courses and side dishes. Order online and Little Spoonfuls will deliver a week's worth of meals that just need re-heating.

Sample meal:
Chicken with Orange Honey Sauce - With this dish we combine raisins, cinnamon, honey, almonds, orange juice, zest, wine, broth to make a rich, savory pan sauce for chicken

3. Deeelish! Meals Made Easy
We can't say enough about Deeelish! Not only are they one of our favorite partners, Simplify clients receive free delivery & free dessert with their first order), but they have yummy meals, with heart healthy entree options and giant portions. You can either assemble your meals in their kitchen, or have frozen pre-assembled meals fed-exed to your home. With step-by-step instructions, you'll have a freshly cooked meal in under 30 minutes.

Sample meal: Cedar Plank BBQ Salmon - Our two pound salmon filet is marinated in an array of sweet, hot and tangy ingredients and cooked right on a fragrant cedar plank that we provide.

And of course, there's always the option of having a Simplify assistant cook a fresh meal for you in your home that you can eat right away. Some of our clients have even dog-eared an interesting recipe to have our assistants prepare it!
