I love to cook, but sometimes I feel like it is just too much work to cook a nice meal.

Now you can create delicious and healthy recipes at home after having all the ingredients delivered right to your door!

So what makes The Up Beet Kitchen different than other services like this? They have an awesome short video that shows you how to put the recipe together. I love this feature because, for me personally, one picture of the final product on a recipe card does not reassure me that I’m doing things correctly!

I decided to make Curry Chickpea Salad. After watching the video, I started to create my recipe when I noticed that there were two items missing from the ingredients list: rice and quinoa. Luckily I had some beautiful purple Jasberry Rice from my Try The World Thailand box that I had been dying to try. I added this and it make the salad so much more colorful! The video also did not explain what to do with the coconut oil that was on the ingredients list.

It should be noted that The Up Beet Kitchen just finished their Kickstarter campaign and they are still in beta mode. I am sure they will fix all the kinks before they go live. You can check out their demo site here. The Up Beet Eating weekly meal planning service will begin on March 4th, 2016. Pre-Order a 1 year subscription now and save 45%!
