Is it worth buying the HelloFresh Christmas Box? 

I tried the HelloFresh Christmas box recently, this is what I honestly thought. I have tried HelloFresh meals before so I knew that it would literally have everything I needed to create a Christmas day meal. However, I was still blown away by this Christmas box. The size of the turkey alone was huge but along with everything else in the box, the cheese board and dessert, for just £31.62 per person, it felt like an absolute bargain. 

I will admit I’m not the best cook but the step by step guide walked me through exactly what I needed to do from what I needed to start prepping the night before to exact times I should put things in the oven.

But how did it taste? Of course the proof really is in the tasting. The Turkey was moist, the vegetables were perfect and the dessert was deliciously indulgent. To finish it all off with the cheese and crackers I couldn’t have been happier. The only thing HelloFresh was missing from this box was someone to come and do the dishes after because after all that food I needed I lay down on the sofa!

You can order your HelloFresh Christmas boxes from the HelloFresh website.  Take the stress out of Christmas day cooking with the HelloFresh Christmas box with everything you need to feed four people this Christmas for a total of £126.48 you'd be a fool not to.
