Has anyone ever tried out these new "meal assembly kitchens?" Places like "Let''s Eat!" and "Girlfriends Kitchen." They are kitchens that have pre-set menus and you come in and assemble the ingredients, then take them home and freeze until you''re ready to cook them. I am a good cook, but several nights a week I am just too tired to do so, and I really don''t think the husband and I should be eating TV dinners (even if they ARE low-fat) and other garbage. I feel like these places might offer a healthier alternative to "fast" dinners since they''re made from fresh ingredients that you assembile. We typically spend $600 a month on groceries for the two of us (we''re foodies!) and 12 6-serving meals for us from this place would be $200. That''s almost like a dinner every other night, except with large servings we could have lunch at work too.
Has anyone ever tried these places, is it convenient, is the food quality good? I know I can cook more cheaply from scratch, but find we''re turning to tv dinners and fast foods when I don''t cook, and these meal prices per serving are less or the same as tv dinners.
