Is it just us, or does it seem like there are tons of new food delivery services out there? New apps make it tempting to skip cooking and have dinner delivered to your door. Take-out options are expanding, too. More apps for your phone make it too easy to skip the line and pick up your to-go item in record time.

There’s no doubt it’s convenient. Sometimes on a busy weeknight or a lazy Sunday, nothing else does the trick. But even with the promo codes and sign-up bonuses, take-out and delivery can be pricey – not to mention way less healthy than cooking at home.

In this newsletter, we’re serving up some ways to swap out your delivery options with a tastier, healthier dish cooked at home. Read on!

Swap a Bacon, Egg & Cheese for an Egg & Spinach Sandwich – Nothing beats a breakfast sandwich in the morning. But the sammies at your favorite coffee spot have a lot of sodium and shouldn’t be part of a daily breakfast. Instead, opt for a home-cooked version that keeps the delicious, gooey cheese and adds an extra kick of spinach.

Swap pizza delivery for a Cauliflower Crust Veggie Pizza – It's hard to beat pizza, but you can skip the delivery and still capture all the delicious flavors (and some tasty veggies) with this cauliflower-based version. Don’t knock it till you try it!

Swap cookie delivery for Chocolate Chip Cookies with Spinach – Is there anything more dangerous than cookies you can have delivered to your door!? Talk about testing your willpower! If you have to indulge your sweet tooth, reach for this recipe, which uses spinach and bananas. Bonus points if you eat them while they’re still warm!

Ta da! Three delicious ways to ditch the delivery.
