Good to know

How long do these take?

All of them are quick: about 16 minutes for the middle of the set, and nothing here takes longer than roughly 20 minutes.

How many calories are in these?

Most land between 160 and 747 calories a serving. Every recipe shows its own calories plus protein, carbs and fat, calculated per serving rather than per batch.

Do these come with a grocery list?

Yes. Any recipe here can be added to a grocery list that adds up quantities across everything you have chosen and sorts it by aisle, so two recipes needing onions become one line.
