*I received a free shipment of Hello Fresh in exchange for this review. All opinions expressed in this post are 100% my own. Hello Fresh, A Weekly Food Box Delivery Service It's been about 4 weeks since I had my foot surgery. I haven't done any grocery shopping since then. (I can't drive or walk for a few more weeks.)
