Blue Apron Gift Card
If he enjoys cooking his own meals, this might be the perfect gift. Each box has all the necessary ingredients for a perfectly portioned meal with step-by-step instructions so he can be sure it’s going to turn out delicious, no matter if this is his first time making this dish or not.
Blue Apron ingredients come straight from the farmer which means high quality, fresh foods that don’t cost as much as buying them from a grocery store.
Instant Pot
These are great gifts for the busy man who still enjoys healthy meals that he puts together himself. An Instant Pot is a mix between a crock pot and pressure cooker.
He can cut down cooking times by more than half. After a long day of working, it’s difficult to find the energy to come home and cook. He can still eat well without spending hours on cooking and cleanup.
Keurig Coffee Maker

He could even use this to make hot chocolate that comes in K-cups and it quickly heats water for a cup of tea or even instant soup.
These are just a few ideas that the recent grad will find quite useful. Money is tight as he is embarking on this new stage of life. Practical gifts that he will find useful are the very best kinds of gifts for people just starting out.
