Enjoy more time with your family during the week with Blue Apron’s delicious, wholesome meals that are made with REAL ingredients and ready in just 30 minutes!
Finding time to cook during the week can get pretty time-consuming, especially with school officially starting back up! It seems like most families end up resorting to ordering take-out or picking food up on the way home from work (yes I’ll totally raise my hand) which may seem really convenient, but it’s never truly satisfying and definitely not healthy. It can also get expensive! That’s why Blue Apron has always been my favorite go-to meal delivery service! It’s seriously a total life saver for us, especially when life can get pretty hectic, and because Blue Apron uses wholesome, farm-fresh ingredients, I know I can feel good about what I’m cooking for my family!
Each meal comes with a detailed recipe card with step-by-step photo instructions that make it easy for literally anyone to dive right in and start cooking. The recipe card also includes all the necessary ingredients, prep and cook time, the calorie amount and even suggested wine pairings! I seriously can’t tell you how much I love that Blue Apron’s ingredients are all pre-portioned out so that no food will go to waste. There have been so many times that I have gone to the grocery store after planning out my meals for the week and have ended up throwing away produce that I never even had the chance to use. Can anyone relate?!
Oh and the best part, Blue Apron sends everything right to your doorstop in a perfectly packaged refrigerated box keeping everything nice and fresh for hours until you get home from work! This was actually really helpful for me this past delivery because I was stuck at work pretty late and didn’t get home until almost 8:00 PM. I was honestly a little worried about my ingredients sitting in the box for that long, but sure enough everything was ice cold and looked as if it had just been packaged!
I’ve used Blue Apron’s meal delivery service a dozen times now or so and each time the meals seriously get better and better. I was really excited about this particular recipe for Miso Chicken with Ramen! This is something I wouldn’t normally make at home so it forced my hubby and I to step outside the box and try something new. You guys, these ramen noodles are FRESH! None of that hard, crunchy processed stuff you had in college, we’re talking fresh, pillowy soft pasta noodles that took only 2 minutes to cook in boiling water! Fresh ingredients like this is just one of the many reasons I love using Blue Apron and they are always adding new seasonal recipes to their menu each week!
This recipe also had so many delicious components and was a fun dish to cook with my husband! I chopped up the veggies while he made the sauce then as I was cooking and shredding the chicken he marinated the cucumber and the tomatoes. It was nice dividing each step up and our delicious dinner came together beautifully. SO many great flavors like ginger and miso and I can’t begin to tell you how filling this was too! It was the perfect dish to end the summer as we start to go into fall.
Each meal Blue Apron offers is always between 500 to 800 calories per person and will never take more than 40 minutes to make. I mean those reasons alone make Blue Apron a winner in my book! They are also working really hard to create a sustainable food system using high quality ingredients which you can learn more about here!
Isn’t everything just so colorful?!
I also received two other recipes in my box which included Cod and Fairy Tale Eggplants along with Seared Steaks in Thyme Pan Sauce with Mashed Potatoes and Green Beans. Both recipes were really good! The steaks were definitely Chris’ favorite while this miso chicken and ramen was mine. Each meal comes with 2 or 3 healthy sides so nothing is ever boring and is always filling!
Here is what is great about Blue Apron. Each box I order always includes fish, poultry and beef which forces us to mix it up and enjoy a good variety of meals each week. They also offer a vegetarian menu which has just as many tasty options! The menus are completely customizable based on your family size and dietary preference. There is no commitment and you can skip or cancel this service at any time!
Not only is Blue Apron super convenient, but it’s incredibly affordable too! Blue Apron offers two types of plans – the 2-Person Plan and the Family Plan:
- The 2-Person Plan offers deliveries once a week with three perfectly portioned meals for two that costs $9.99 per person per meal. Shipping is always free!
- The Family Plan is perfect for a family of four or six and you can choose to receive one or two deliveries per week, each delivery including two meals to be served family-style. The price for this plan is $8.74 per person per meal which is such a great deal!
Blue Apron’s delivery service truly has something for everyone and I seriously urge you to give this a try.
