I've been ordering from Dream Dinners every month for 6 months, and I absolutely love it.\n\nI work both a paying job and a passion job, so I don't have time to grocery shop and cook every night.  I was eating out waaaaay too much when a friend suggested trying out a place that does pre-made meals.  After a lot of research, I decided on Dream Dinners.\n\nThere are a lot of things to love about the concept: \n\n*Time Saving* - I go in once a month and make 12-13 meals that feed 2-3 people (which means my boyfriend and I often have leftovers) in about an hour.  We're covered for most of the month with just an hour's worth of work!\n\n*Healthy* - I get to see all of the ingredients before I use them, so I know they're good quality.  Fresh veggies, real spices - no MSG or preservatives.  Better than frozen meals!  Also, all the nutrition information is available so I can watch my calories and sodium intake.\n\n*Customizable* - I have a food allergy, which is the main reason I went with a make-your-own meal service instead of pre-made.  I get to leave out what I can't eat or don't like.\n\n*Price* - Less than $6 per serving!  As cheap, or cheaper, than eating out.\n\nSo, yeah, the concept is great.  But what about the execution?  Our biggest worry was that the food just wouldn't be good.\n\n*Quality* - As stated above, you see everything before it goes into the meal.  The veggies always look great and are fresh.  Cheese are good, not rubbery, even when they're reduced fat.  The proteins are almost always frozen, but they cook up well.  We particularly like the steaks, which always seem to come up tender and flavorful.  Spices are what I would use in my own kitchen. \n\n*Variety* - I love the variety, because it gets me eating things I otherwise wouldn't.  Each month, there are about 20 - 25 meals to choose from and they are never boring.  A couple different cuisines are represented - traditional american, asian, mexican, italian, greek etc.  They're not entirely authentic but that's understandable - they've got to keep the meals appealing to kids.  They always have some different protein options, so it's not all chicken dishes. \n\n*Flavor* - This varies by dish, of course.  We've had some really excellent ones (roasted red pepper steaks, chicken mirabella, french onion chicken, manicotti, and the calzone are our Top 5) and some pretty mediocre ones (a dish with fish and pasta springs to mind...) but overall they're more consistently good than dining out all the time.  Even when they aren't great, they still get eaten, and we don't have to tip anyone.\n\n*Service* - We LOVE the ladies that work at the Chandler location.  I can't speak for any of the others, but the people we've dealt with are wonderful.  Especially Katie - she remembers us and takes the time to have a conversation with us, which is really nice.\n\nTo sum up a very long review:  If you don't have time to shop and cook, and want a better, healthier, tastier alternative to fast food dining, you just can't beat Dream Dinners!
