Home Chef is a home meal subscription that is $9.95/person per meal. One of the really unique features of Home Chef is their huge menu. Each week there is over 10 meals to choose from. You can pick your regular meals and then add-on shakes and breakfast items. If you have read my reviews, you know I am a really picky eater, though I didn't have any problem selecting my meals for review. Home Chef can also accommodate vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free diets.
When you sign up, you fill out a short profile and Home Chef will give you recommendations, although you can select any meal you wish. Shipping is free for orders over $40.00 and you can skip any week you want. You can also select the day your box is delivered (Tues-Fri).

What's in the box? Each box comes with your selected meals, all packaged so your food stays fresh.
Home Chef ships in a large box by FedEx.
First Look. All the recipe cards and any coupons are placed on top of the box.
Meals come in individual bags and the meat is packed at the bottom with feezer packs. Everything arrived fresh.
Al Pastor Pork Tacos
Each recipe card comes with a full color picture with a breakdown on the time to prep & cook, how long you have to cook the food, difficulty level and spice level.
- Prep & Cook Time – 25-35 mins
- Cook Within – 5 Days
- Difficulty Level – Easy

Most of the ingredients ships in resealable bags. Any meat products are shipped in the bottom of the box under ice packs.
Allt he ingredients arrived fresh.
I am not a food photographer, so the photos don't do the meals justice. My husband and I love Al Paster pork tacos, so this was an easy choice. I didn't cook with the poblano pepper because everyone one else in my family doesn't like spice.
The tacos were amazing and all four of my family members loved them. I will be saving the recipe to make them again.
Steak Strip Tortellini Marinara with red peppers
My youngest child isn't a fan of pasta, but I wanted to see if he would enjoy this dish.
- Prep & Cook Time – 15 mins
- Cook Within – 4 Days
- Difficulty Level – Easy
- Spice Level – Not Spicy
Like the tacos, everything arrived fresh. The dish made enough for four people but there was plenty of leftovers.
This dish was amazing. My youngest didn't love the pasta, but once he added his favorite condiment, ranch, he ate the dish. My husband, older son and I loved this dish, and ate it for leftovers that next day.
Final Thought: I loved getting Home Chef again. Their recipes are family-friendly and you can easily leave out an ingredient if you are not a fan. There is a wide range of recipes to choose from each week. If you don't want meals this week, just skip. If you want to try Home Chef, use this link to save $30.00 on your 1st box.
