![]() Half of the week's recipes weighed in at 30 grams of fat or more (the crispy tacos had 47 grams of fat and the pork tteokbokki 36 grams, but the spring chicken only had 15 grams). Nutrition-wise, Blue Apron was in the middle of the pack. The dish was heavy on the rosemary and had "slightly tough kale" and "slightly dry chicken chunks." Overall, four of the six recipes rated "very good" for taste and two rated "good." The cod tacos were "fresh tasting" with "nice flavor and texture variety," but the chicken fettuccine dish garnered a "nothing special" verdict from tasters. On the other hand, the cod tacos called for half a pound of red cabbage, but we got nearly a pound. And the tablespoon of Gochujang sauce for the pork dish was missing from our shipment. For example, the Spring Chicken Fettuccine with Sautéed Asparagus, Kale and Rosemary called for 6 ounces of dried pasta we got 4 ounces. We found slight discrepancies in the amount of ingredients listed in the recipe and the amount we actually received in a few of the Blue Apron dishes in our tests. The company offers two types of plans: A two-person plan, which costs $59.94 for three meals per week, and a family plan that serves four, which costs $69.92 for two meals and $139.84 for four meals per week. While all the dishes were tasty, our professional tasters judged them to be less impressive overall than the offerings of some of the other services.īlue Apron was the lowest-priced service in our tests. ![]() The menu included Pork Tteokbokki Asparagus and Spicy Black Bean Sauce, Crispy Cod Tacos with Chipotle-Cabbage Slaw, and Greek Pizza with Kalamata Olives, Feta, and Pea Tips. When we reviewed a month's worth of menus from the five kits we tested, Blue Apron had the most recipes with an ethnic flare-about two-thirds of the dishes-and the fewest number of more traditional-style fare.įive of six meals we tested featured Asian, Greek, or Mexican-inspired flavors. With the meal options from Blue Apron, you have plenty of chances to experiment. One of the things people like about meal delivery services is the experience of trying new cuisines and flavors. ![]()
