Blue Apron April 2016 Meal Subscription Review + Coupon

Disclosure; I received this box for review.  This post contains affiliate links.

002

Blue Apron is a meal subscription box that sends you delicious recipes and all the ingredients you need to make the dishes.  There are two plans, a two-person plan and a family plan.  The two-person plan is $59.94/box or 9.99 per serving.  The two-person box includes two plates of three different meals.  The family box is $69.92/box for eight services or $8.74/serving.

When you sign up, you check all the kinds of food you like.  I choose not to get fish or shellfish.  Each week, you will be sent meals based on your preferences.

This is the finished meal.  The potatoes were a bit tricky to make, but the burgers were really easy.  I normally don't like sauce on my burgers but I loved it.  Our whole family was able to share a two plate dinner.  The picture above is just one plate.

Creamy Lemon Pasta with English Peas, Mint & Garlic Breadcrumbs I think this was my favorite meal, pasta, peas, spinach and cheese.

This made two huge plates and there was more than enough for our whole family.  This is a meal will be making again.

This wasn't my favorite dish, but it was fun to try.  The chicken was really good, it has a nice spice and lemon flavor

Final Thought: This was a nice box and I enjoyed most of the recipes.  After you are a subscriber, you can skip any week in your account.  I love meal subscription boxes, because they help me and my family try new foods we wouldn't try ordinarily.  if you want to try Blue Apron, use this link to save $20.00 on your 1st box.
