How to Boil Water: Blue Apron Month #4

Another month of Blue Apron has come and gone and it was also a pretty mixed month. We had some that we absolutely loved and some that we just didn't like. There really was no middle ground.

Cherry Tomato & Peach Panzanella with Fresh Mozzarella, Arugula & Basil

This one was disappointing. The bread and the peach with this one was delicious, but the rest was a little bland. It just lacked flavor for me and I just wasn't a fan.

Even more disappointing is that I lost the pictures of this meal, so now you don't even get to know what it looks like. I guess a disappointment all around...

Cremini & Shiitake Mushroom Pasta with Summer Beans & Crispy Shallot Rings

This is one that we will be making again. It was really good. Like really good. There wasn't anything about this meal that I didn't enjoy. It was easy to make and the mushrooms were delicious, Plus pasta is always great - you just can't go wrong!


Tinkerbell Pepper Quesadillas with Cherry Tomato Salsa, Lime Crema & Sunny Side-Up Eggs

I really enjoyed this one. It always surprises me when I have a meal that has pepper and I like it. It helps that this wasn't overly hot and any of the hot was downgraded by all the other flavors going on. There was just so much to this dish but it was all delicious.

BBQ Pork Burgers & Corn on the Cob with Crispy Onion Rings & Garlic-Herb Butter

This meal is one of our favorites we have ever had with Blue Apron. It was really really good. I don't even like barbecue but this was seriously good.

Spicy Chicken & Korean Rice Cakes with Sweet Corn, Shiitake Mushrooms & Ginger Cashews

This one wasn't so delicious. The flavors were good but the rice cakes were weird. I really didn't like how they were chewy. The texture was really weird so not a fan of this one.

Spicy Peperonata Pasta with Tinkerbell Peppers, Cherry Tomatoes & Pine Nuts

This was really good. We really enjoyed this one. But pasta is always a winner for me!

Eggplant, Shishito & Summer Bean Stir-Fry with Jasmine Rice & Ginger-Lime Cashews

This one was pretty good. It had a bit of a kick to it with the peppers but the rice helped even that out. This one was pretty easy and we really liked this one.

Grilled Fontina Cheese & Mint Sandwiches with Peach, Almond & Arugula Salad

Rob was pretty excited about this one since it's basically grilled cheese. It was good. I liked the salad too but I'm always mixed on my feelings about arugula. Some days I like it and other days I don't. This day I wasn't as fond of arugula but the peach was seriously delicious - hats off to the person to who grew this peach!

Neapolitan-Style Stewed Vegetables & Farro with Summer Beans, Sweet Pepper & Gremolata

This was really good. However after awhile I got tired of the farro. I don't think I like farro all that much but the flavors were delicious.
