I Tried the WW x Blue Apron Meals, and Here's Why I'm Not Quitting Anytime Soon

The most difficult part for me when it comes to WW is figuring out what to eat and how it fits into my daily SmartPoints budget. WW x Blue Apron takes care of that for me. Each meal is two portions, and the points are already figured out for you. All you have to do is prep and cook. And as much as prepping and cooking are a real struggle for me, even I could handle this.

I tried three recipes in my first box: a chicken with rice and vegetables, mushroom risotto (pictured here), and fish with vegetables. Not only are these recipes good and good for you, but they're all things I would never think of to make for myself. I love to eat elaborate meals (or ones that just seem elaborate) that are beyond throwing pasta in a pot or salad on a plate, but I don't have the time to sit down and figure out what those recipes are going to be. With WW x Blue Apron, I don't even have to worry about it, because I'm getting what look like gourmet meals without having to do much work.

I am very vocal about how much I love ordering food and having it come to my door. This technically does that, though I have to do the work. However! WW x Blue Apron is cheaper than ordering takeout every night. You can get three recipes (two meals each) delivered per week for $60 (the first two boxes are half price for newbies right now), which comes out to only $10 per meal. I can't get anything delivered in New York for $10. So not only am I getting a healthier meal that I can feel proud of prepping and cooking myself, but it's actually saving me money. Honestly, how does it get any better?
