I’m really enjoying the Atkins recipes from the meal delivery service, Chef’d! The ingredients came right to my door and, as usual, I was very impressed with the quality. The chicken breasts were nice and pink and of good portions. The veggies were crisp and fresh. If you are considering joining a meal delivery service, Chef’d has yet to disappoint. If you are interested in trying the recipe, I am happy to share it below. Enjoy!
