I wasn’t totally planning on getting a Hello Fresh delivery last week, but I forgot to skip so I got one! I wasn’t sad though, because the meal options looked fabulous.  Then again, they always look fabulous.

The Box

Hello Fresh ships via FedEx. My box arrived on a Thursday, however, beginning yesterday (9/11/13), Hello Fresh is now delivering on Wednesdays.

First Look

Once again I didn’t unpack my box until around dinner time on the day it arrived and everything was still “chilly” and looked great.   I believe there were 5-6 options to select from last week and B and I had a hard time picking since they all looked SO good!  We usually both agree on one and then we each pick one we want to try the most.  It seems to work out well for us.  Here’s what we picked last week:

~Lasagna Style Baked Penne: OMG.  This may be one of the best Hello Fresh meals, wait one of the best meal subscription box meals I have ever had.  It was delicious.  B and I had a crazy week (we always do) so he made this one night and then we had it for lunch (separately) the next day.  I can’t even tell you how amazing this was.  It was insane.  I am dying for B to recreate this.  Maybe it’ll happen this weekend?  Fingers crossed!

~Chicken Paillard with Arugula Salad and Gremolata: I always enjoy the salads that come in these subscription boxes because I would never put any of these things together on my own.  This was another delicious meal, but wasn’t AS amazing as the lasagna.  How could it have been really?  All these boxes are really opening my eyes and showing me that I really DO like “fancy” foods and that I’ve just been scared to try them before!

~Sweet Potato & Fish Cakes with Fresh Summer Salad: B and I have not gotten a chance to try this yet (boo us), but I didn’t want to delay my review.  I froze what I could from this because I didn’t want to waste anything I didn’t have to!  B is only home for dinner 4 nights a week and I think we got 6 meals last week ;(.
