💰Money Saving Tip!

A couple of months ago I figured out why we weren't eating as many veggies as we should...

I was BORED with the same old selection of veggies every single time I went to the store. Which, by the way hasn't been very often since the plague came to town.

But, I discovered the amazing benefits of this produce delivery service and I may never go back.

Not only are they eco-friendly, they save me money and deliver super fresh veggies to my doorstep every other week.

If you want to check them out just use this code and you'll automatically get $10.00 off of your first order. Cool right?

📋 Cooking Tips & FAQ'S:

Can I make this ahead of time?

Yes! Just chill in the fridge and re-heat the green beans when you're ready. Serve the savory Dijon cream cold for best taste.
