Cooking at home is a great way to reconnect with your loved ones after a busy day, but it can be a challenge for city dwellers who don’t have the time to shop for or plan a meal. Blue Apron offers a solution. The food delivery service sends fresh, pre-portioned ingredients and original recipes to your door every week. Blue Apron focuses on seasonal ingredients from artisanal purveyors, so all of your meals are healthy. Each easy-to-follow recipe takes about 40 minutes to prepare, and since the ingredients are pre-portioned, there is no waste.
Blue Apron offers flexible meal plans designed to fit your dietary needs or restrictions, and there is no commitment–you can skip a week or cancel at any time. You can choose from the Family Plan, with portions to feed a family of four, or the 2-Person Plan. Recipes include tomato-baked cod, roasted chicken & root vegetables, poblano chilaquiles with eggs and avocado, roasted butternut squash, and many others. All Blue Apron recipes are shipped in a refrigerated box so your ingredients stay fresh.
Blue Apron helps you learn how to make new recipes from a variety of regional cuisines so you can get out of your dinner rut of making the same old dishes or relying on take out. The first 100 PoPville readers to sign up for a new Blue Apron subscription get a credit equal to the cost of two meals on their first order (a $20 value).
