Plated 3/24

We had an amazing plated week this week.  As usual, great variety and super high quality ingredients.  We are going to take a little break the next couple of weeks and return to our BlueApron roots now that they have an option to customize our menu to include meat and poultry dishes.  Having more options every week is a good problem to have.

Here is what we enjoyed the week of 3/24.

Chicken Souvlaki Pitas with Tzatziki and Greek Salad
This was delicious.  The chicken was super tender and flavorful and I loved having a greek salad that didn't include olives (which I don't like).  Anytime a recipe includes Tzatziki I'm on board.



Dijon Pork Medallions with Broccolini and Smashed Potatoes 
The pork was perfectly tender.  This recipe instructed to make the smash potatoes using only olive oil, salt, and pepper.  D and I were both impressed how creamy they were!



Risotto with Roasted Radicchio, Mushrooms, and Lemon
Making risotto is always more labor intensive due to the constant stirring, but this was worth it.  The radicchio had a nice bitter flavor that was subdued by a honey glaze and acid from the lemon.



It's great to take our break on such a high note.  We'll definitely be back to plated in a couple weeks I'm sure!
