Spent $45 on one of those meal kit boxes for two dinners and I'm still mad about it

I caved last month after a coworker kept going on about how fast the meals come together. The box showed up on a Wednesday with wilted basil and a tiny chicken breast that barely fed one person, let alone two. By the time I chopped, cooked, and washed all the little plastic bags, I'd burned 50 minutes on a meal I could have made for $8 at the store. If you're thinking about trying one for busy nights, just don't, grab a rotisserie chicken and a bag of frozen veggies instead. What's your go to when you get home at 6:30 and have zero plan?
