Home-cooked meals without the hassle

Each week, companies like Plated, PeachDish, Hello Fresh and Blue Apron via Internet subscriptions, deliver refrigerated boxes of fresh, ready-to-cook ingredients for budget-minded meals prepared quickly and, as Judith Winfrey, president of Atlanta-based PeachDish puts it, “in your slippers.” The meal kits often contain ingredients you may not find in your neighborhood supermarket, writes Helaine R. Williams.

The beauty of it all? Someone else has done the shopping and calorie counting … and even separated the ingredients so that no measuring is required.

Williams recently tried several of the companies offerings.
