My Blue Apron Review

 I've said it before, but I'm really all about the "love to cook, hate to plan" lifestyle. Blue Apron is perfect for this and we've had four deliveries now and I can tell you it's good. If you're too busy to plan dinners and enjoy trying new types of food, then give it a try. Two thumbs up from us. Well, eight if you're really counting. :)

The delivery comes in a thermal insulated box with ice packs and instruction cards like this:

Everything is neatly packed on the inside. Proteins will always be separated on the bottom and closest to the ice packs. 

Eggs! Not cracked!

I did, however, have issues with my first and second shipments. Both times, the seal on the package that contained the chicken had leaked. (No other ingredients were harmed.) Both times I emailed their customer service and received quick replies with apologies and credits to my account. I was happy with how they handled everything. 

While the picture of this salmon/udon noodle dish isn't the most appetizing, it was a favorite from the whole family. (Justin and Vaughn cooked this one together!) 

While I've really enjoyed this service, I've found it more of a hassle to use on nights when the kids have activities -which sometimes is every week night- because it's a bit time consuming. On busy nights, a quick meal is the best answer for us. I've skipped the next 4 weeks meal deliveries just for this reason. (It's baseball, softball, indoor and outdoor soccer season all at once!) 
Here's the link to Blue Apron in case you want to check it out! 


*Blue Apron has no idea who I am. I paid for this service in full and do not receive anything in return for this post or if you sign up. I just like letting you know about fun things!
