Jon and I decided to start a new mini series over on our vlogging channel, its called “5 Days of…” and its a little challenge where we test something out over the course of 5 days. For our first mini series we decided to test out Hello Fresh recipes as it is something we have fancied doing in the past but have just never bitten the bullet and done it.
So this is Day 1 of our 5 Days of Hello Fresh and we are testing out the Lemon and Oregano Chicken Recipe! You can see the vlog below to see what we thought of it and how it really looked, plus find the full recipe below the video if you fancy testing it out for yourself.
Plus if you use the link above you will get £20 off your first box!
