To save money + spend money on trying more new recipes, I have been looking at HelloFresh cookbook for recipe ideas.
Does anyone have an idea- when it says “1 unit”- of how much 1 unit is? Also trying to track calories so want to stay on track. Thank you!! 💚

I would say 1 unit of crushed tomatoes is a can and one unit of stock concentrate is a tablespoon.
If a recipe calls for stock concentrate, and also water, our rule of thumb is to replace all the water with the appropriate stock. Hasn’t failed us yet
For the stock concentrate, you can buy it on Amazon (I think you can also use chicken stock – if the recipe calls for concentrate + 1 cup of water, just use 1 cup of chicken stock)

I generally use Better Than Bouillon, mix it in with a little hot water and use about how much there is in the HF packets.
