Plated 3/10 and 3/17

Here are our delicious plated creations from the past two weeks!  As usual, we ate very well and enjoyed a lot of variety.

Week of 3/10

Roasted Eggplant with Pine Nuts, Raisins, and Parsley
I really liked this dish but D wasn't a huge fan.  The eggplant roasted perfectly and the salty/sweet combo with the raisins was delicious. 

Chicken Fricassee with Gnocchi and Artichokes 
As simple as it was, the dill garnish really added so much flavor to this dish.  The sauce was flavorful but not heavy.  It would have been nice to have a little more gnocchi.

Sweat Pea Mac n'Cheese
I was worried the sauce for this was too thick, but it turned out great.  Cheese and Peas are two of my favorite things.  We also had plenty of leftovers!

Week of 3/17
Shepherd's Pie
This was our St. Patrick's Day meal!  It was super easy and was as delicious as any shepherd's pie I'd ever had at a restaurant. 

Chicken Tostadas
A lot of ingredient chopping for this one (which seems to always happen when prepping Mexican food), but it was worth it!  The avocado/greek yogurt sauce had a great flavor.

Baked Gnocchi and Green Salad
This was one was a fail.  The green salad didn't keep so well so we had to substitute a caesar salad on our own.  The sauce was just ok and there wasn't much gnocchi.  At least it left us plenty of room to have dessert. ;-)

Overall a good 2 weeks.  Recently I received an email from Blue Apron, informing us they will now customize the weekly menu's to be a mix of meat and vegetarian options.  We already have another plated delivery coming this week but after that we plan on returning to Blue Apron to finally try out their meat/chicken dishes.
