I created Let's Be Chefs to help solve a lot of the pain points of Blue Apron and other such services. We don't deliver the ingredients, so you're free to buy organic/regular, swap ingredients, alter number of servings, etc. as you wish. (Receiving ingredients never really reduced my grocery shopping anyway because I still have to buy milk, bread, eggs, etc.). We don't have the associated waste, and the service is much cheaper ($6.99/month after a 7 day free trial - no credit card required for trial). Best of all, we'll learn your likes and dislikes and will send you weekly menus through the app of meals that you'll enjoy.

If you'd like to try it out for free for 7 days, check out www.LetsBeChefs.com. We're a new startup, so we'd really appreciate any and all feedback as well!
