Meal prep isn’t just for bodybuilders and fitness enthusiasts: planning meals in advance saves time and money while reducing stress. Deli sides and meals help cut down time in the kitchen and give you that time back; what could be better than that? Well, you can get started saving time by shopping for deli meals online in the app or at your local ACME Markets.

How can you get onboard the train of time savings? Just think about the sides that you and your loved ones like eating best. For example, let’s take macaroni and cheese. Everybody has their favorite homemade recipe that uses plenty of cheese, butter, milk and time, but who has time for that these days? You could get mac and cheese as a deli side instead. Pair it with the food that you really want to put time into, like a slow roasted whole chicken.

Mixing and matching gives you not just the chance to save a little time, it also gives you a wide variety of options. You could do a meal around rotisserie chicken and make your own sides, or go with mashed potatoes that are ready made for your table.

Deli sides and meals can also pop into the freezer for a later time, increasing your ability to plan ahead for lunch, dinner, special guests…you get the idea.

Purchase fun deli sides & meals at your local ACME Markets and give yourself a break; you deserve it!
