I have been using Home Chef for a while and so I thought I would do an unusual take on an Unsponsored Home Chef Review (2020 of course) and break it all down and compare the cost of home chef vs scratch to see how the cost breaks down. I am feeding a family of 5 (4 adults and an 8-year-old) and 4 servings are plenty for us because my 8-year-old and I split one meal with just a few minor alterations. In fact, I frequently extend the meals so that we have leftovers for my husband to take to work for lunch the next day.

I have tried so many meal subscription boxes/meal delivery kits and Home Chef is by far my family's favorite. I gotta say that I was a tad shocked at how all the costs broke down. I knew it would be different but still surprising!

We are a family of three (Wendy, Mauricio and Melina - Age 9), living in the suburbs of Washington DC (Vienna, VA) and getting our financial life in order!  We earn a solid multi-6 figure income but in the past, we have struggled to pay for unexpected expenses and emergencies. We truly lived paycheck to paycheck even though we had a positive overall net worth because of our retirement savings.

In 2016 everything changed. We decided to get out financial act together and since that time we have gotten 1 full month ahead in our income (which means what we earn this month goes to pay next month's bills), paid off well over $200,000 worth of debt, started planning ahead and saving for big financial expenses (like summer camp, a new car, a down payment on a house to name just a few) and we are even paying CASH for my Mauricio's graduate school (he's changing careers and becoming an architect!).

We believe that there is no one size fits all plan for being successful with money so we are creating our own path. It is our theory that every family should evaluate their own financial struggles and determine the root cause of those issues. For us, those issues stemmed from committing to giving without looking at the impact on our own financial situation. We did not have debt because we bought fancy cars or clothes, we had debt because we chose to give away hundreds of thousands of dollars before we actually earned it. Now when we give, we give with cash that we have saved for the sole purpose of giving.

We understand the shame and guilt of having such a large income and not having enough cash to pay for an emergency...like when the transmission on the car goes out or there are large medical expenses. We have developed a plan that works for us and we are so proud of how far we have come since 2016!
