“To save time, I’ve been trying out meal-in-a-box kits (or what a colleague of mine calls “Lego recipes”). There are a ton of options (Blue Apron, Plated, Purple Carrot, and HelloFresh, to name a few), and most of them suffer the same pitfall: insane amounts of packaging, which makes my Earth-loving heart hurt.My favorite box so far is Sunbasket because a) it comes with a return label for you to ship back the box, ice packs, and insulation for reuse; b) it’s an SF-based company that sources produce from West Coast farms (the others are based in NY); and c) the veggie recipes are actually filling, healthy, and INSANELY good.”
