Blue Apron

We received the Blue Apron shipment of 3 meals for 2 adults as expected on Tuesday, January 31, 2017. I live in Texas and it was in the mid-70s that day. The veggies were still cool in the insulated package and the meat was packed between 2 frozen ice packs. My mind wonders if this would be the case when summer hits and the temp is in or nearing three digits.

But here's what I got:

Now, I bought a Groupon for $29. I feel that for $29, the amount of food is sufficient but if I had paid the full price of $60, I would have felt gypped.

Burgers & Red Cabbage Slaw

The first meal I prepared, that's right, just me because you aren't going to find my husband cooking up dinner was hamburgers with red cabbage slaw and siracha mayo. I timed myself, it took 45 minutes and 17 seconds. That included making grilled cheeses for the kids and disciplining one of the kids as well. Not too shabby. Here's the ingredients:

 And here's the finished product. I added cheese to mine.

I rate the dish as a 2.5 out of 5 stars. Not fond of the red cabbage slaw (this may have well been my first time ever eating slaw). My youngest ate some of the burger and fries. The middle child had a bite of a fry and handed it back. My oldest had none.

My husband's rating was a 3 out of 5 stars. He hates mayo but sort of liked the siracha mayo. He ate 3 of the burgers and said he'd be willing to eat it again. Since he isn't proclaiming to divorce me, we'll call this dinner a win.
