37th Blue Apron Meal Kit Subscription Box Review



Hand-Cut Pappardelle with Calabrian Chili Tomato Sauce & Kale


Meal Kit Ingredients

This recipe has only 460 calories and it takes about 25 minutes to prepare. Anytime Pappardelle is offered I order it, it's my favorite pasta. Fresh pasta is so much tastier than dry. The mascarpone and Grana Padano cheese were scrumptious. We gave this recipe four out of five stars. If it had one more ingredient, perhaps we would give it five out of five stars. On to the next recipe shown below.


Tomatillo Chicken & Rice Bowls with Roasted Vegetables & Orange Salsa


Meal Kit Ingredients

We gave this recipe four out of five stars. I've really been enjoying salsa made with fruit lately. This one was really tasty. The chicken arrived unsealed and leaking so we had to throw it out. It was in a bag, so it didn't leak on any other ingredients. Luckily, I was able to order chicken from Publix via Instacart pick up. Lately, during this crisis, it has been really difficult to order meats and poultry, so I was very lucky. Blue Apron gave me store credit. The tomatillo poblano sauce was scrumptious. It's unusual for Blue Apron to premake sauces, so it was a nice change not having to make it ourselves. It's a time saver! Green Chef is the service that offers the most premade sauces and prechopped ingredients. I love golden raisins, I wish more recipes included them. They are a wonderful addition. On to the final recipe shown below.


Pesto Salmon & Roasted Vegetables with Olive & Capers


Meal Kit Ingredients

This recipe has 730 calories and it takes 35 minutes to prepare. We gave it three out of five stars. It's a Seamus Mullen recipe. We didn't like the side dish, but the salmon was yummy. The combination of zucchini, shallot, grape tomatoes, golden potatoes, and Niçoise olives wasn't tasty. The basil pesto wasn't great either.

I will have another Blue Apron giveaway as soon as Blue Apron allows free boxes again. Currently, they are not allowing any since they have more customers than they can accommodate. Most customers aren't getting what they ordered, so now isn't a good time to try them out anyway. Hello Fresh has been reliable for us week after week during this crisis.  I highly recommend their meal kit service!
