Working couples, singles, and busy families who care about eating fresh, home-cooked meals are flocking to the concept of a freshly prepped meal-in-a-box and the Malagos Homegrown Produce is one of the online stores in the city who are dropping a series new offerings each week. The choices can be overwhelming but we’re here to help you sort them out.

For this story, we want to give you an idea on how you can choose the best meal kit delivery service. You can choose what suits your lifestyle and flavor preferences or you can surprise yourself by trying out something new. Here are some take-aways for your take-away meals.

1. Choose a meal kit that will help you improve your culinary skills and repertoire.

2. Meal kits are generally fun so it’s okay not to overthink. Although, it would be really helpful if your kit has a breakdown of ingredients so you know what you will be using to achieve the flavors of your meal. It is SO much fun and never gets old opening the box to see what’s for dinner.

3. You should also choose one with a cooking instruction list to help you if you don’t exactly know where and how to begin. You will surprise yourself--preparing recipes you might otherwise gloss over in a magazine or cookbook.

4. Choose meal kits with ingredients that are, for the most part, fresher, higher-quality, and generally better than you might find at your average chain grocery store.

5. These DIY meal kits are an avenue for you and your children to bond and get them engaged with the process.

The Malagos homegrown recipes from each meal kit are printed in full color with step-by-step instructions. For the cooking process, there are some ingredients that you need to provide like cooking oil, salt, and pepper. Aside from considering the ingredients and packaging, you should also check if they deliver. Some restaurants and online services only offer some of their DIY kits on a certain day and so it’s important to know which ones are easily and readily available should you have those impulsive moments where you need to satisfy your cravings ASAP.

If you want to try your hands on these DIY meal kits then better check out the Malagos Garden Resort Meal Kits at the Malagos Homegrown Produce. These online meal kit products in Davao City were once a part of the farm-to-table menu of Malagos Garden Resort. The resort is known to use homegrown produce – all grown and harvested from neighboring Malagos Farms – in their restaurant’s ala carte selections. Since dining is still not allowed in the new normal, Malagos made these meals more accessible to locals by packaging them into something that residents can enjoy in their humble abode.
