Meal Ingredients Delivered
While I was writing this post about batch cooking, I did an internet search and realized that I could use Greenling to get organic/local/sustainable products delivered to my door and that I could actually order all the ingredients (already chopped/prepped) to cook five Engine 2 meals (for two people).

I did manage to run on every Saturday and Sunday that wasn’t already occupied.
