Would you be amazed to know that I had everything delivered to my door to make this incredibly tasty Italian Steak with Grilled Radicchio Salad. Each ingredient pre-portioned (no measuring people). The delivery box also included an 8 x 10 recipe card complete with step by step photographs with clear and concise cooking directions, cooking tips and glossary of terms. Pretty much every thing is done for you but the cooking and the dishes. I’d say that’s pretty amazing and that I’m sorry I didn’t think of this incredible service myself.

What exactly is this service I’m talking about you ask? It’s called Plated.  “PLATED is a ready to cook dinner kit service. Plated makes it easy for you to to cook a fantastic gourmet meal in thirty minutes or less.”  I recently discovered Plated when I was nominated as a finalist for Plated’s Best Food Blog Award (hooray). They contacted me with the news and asked if I’d like to try a few plates. YES and thank you. I went to their website, chose my plates (there are meat/fish and vegetarian options), chose the delivery date and had them delivered to my DOOR. It was really that simple.

“By cooking with Plated, you are helping to support organizations like Teach for America.

This is fantastic service for anyone who’s: busy, in a cooking rut, having a dinner party, cooking for someone special, wants to learn to cook or even those who are on VACATION! Yes, seriously, I had several plates delivered directly to our spring break beach rental home (check our instagram feed to see the variety of  #platedpics)  Talk about convenient. I didn’t have to think about what I was going to cook or go shopping for the ingredients. I simply ordered the week before and voila dinners were covered. They even have gift cards (talk about a great idea for new parents)

What You Will Need:

  • 1/4 bunch flat leaf Italian parsley - divided, finely chopped

    I haven’t tried Plated yet (they didn’t deliver here for the longest time!) but I use a similar service sometimes. I love being able to give myself a night off but still eat a home-cooked, healthy meal.

    When I lived in Minnesota, I used to have some of my groceries delivered during the brutal winters months, but they never came in an actual kit. Now if only someone would cook the food for me. HA. What a great idea. And *high five* on the award!

    I LOVE these meal services. They make it so easy to throw together dinner when you tired. I just watched Shark Tank where they had the founders of Plated!

    This looks really luxurious. I know my husband would eat this in no time. I haven’t used radicchio much in my cooking but I need to experiment with it because I love it.

    Hello!

    This looks like high-end restaurant quality food that I can realistically do! Great.

    I guess I don’t need to be afraid to invite the neighbors over for dinner anymore =)

    Oh god! This looks amazing and it is still Monday (I only have time to experiment with food on weekends)! šŸ™ Iā€™m going to have to wait a long time for it, but Iā€™m sure it will be delicious!
