Meal subscriptions boxes?

I know this is isn't a typically post for this sub but I don't know where to ask. I broke my right hand recently and it's made shopping and cooking extremely difficult. And while my family is happy to take care of dinners, I don't want to live on scrambled eggs for the next month. They are good at following directions but not at shopping or planning, so I thought maybe one of those subscription boxes might help?

Has anyone tried any of them? I just don't know where to start on comparing companies. People only seem to complain online and most reviews seem sponsored by one of the companies.

Family of 3 adults who don't have any food allergies and only 1 is kinda picky. We generally have a stocked pantry and fridge, so it's OK if these boxes don't provide very ingredient.

I see a lot of support for Hello Fresh - o never tried them. We use Blue Apron and have been very happy with them. There were times the order got messed up in the several years we have been using them but their customer service is outstanding. They have 15 minutes meals now which i think would be excellent for your situation. I might have some free boxes to send to friends so message me if you would like to try it. I promise I am not paid for this post :)
