Easy meals
If you live on your own and find cooking is a chore and it is difficult to get enough variety of vegetables in small proportions, you might like to go and browse this site. www.eat.co.nz.... Meals come in weekly orders of your choice. They are vacuum sealed and will keep in the fridge for up to two weeks. All you do is go to your fridge, pick which meal you want and pop it in the microwave for 4 minutes. You also get desserts of your choice, and these are heated for 2 minutes, except for the cheese cake. Benefits are healthy appetizing meals, only a couple of dishes to wash, saving on water and electricity and time. I am hooked.
