I tried out NMC, which is a meal prep service in the Charleston-Huntington area. Each meal is $7 and under 500 calories. There's a good variety, and all you have to do is heat them up. I figured this is a perfect solution for those super busy weeks where it's tough to find time to cook dinner, but you also might not want to spend the money ordering out. Bonus points that it's in a portion-sized container so it can help with those diets. And, they deliver for $5.



I reached out to them last week and ordered 6 meals for the week: Seafood Pasta - Tri-colored rotini with shrimp and crab with some veggies and a mayo-based sauce, Turkey Enchiladas Stuffed Peppers, 3 Meat Lasagna with Broccoli - with zucchini, Hibachi Chicken with Fried Rice and Mixed Vegetables, Pork Egg Roll Bowl and Honey Jerk Chicken.



Everything was pretty solid, even though it was "healthy." My favorite was the stuffed peppers because there was a lot of flavor, and I also enjoyed the seafood pasta for something different. I'm not crazy about the skin on the chicken or grilled chicken in general, but not bad. This week, I'm going to be trying the following:
