This was last week’s Plated delivery, but I still wanted to share our thoughts on it. Plated is a weekly meal subscription delivery service. They send you all the ingredients you need to prepare meals of your choosing (I believe that the menu has 7 or 8 weekly options). You can opt for their Membership option which is less expensive, but auto-subscribes you, or you can just opt to pay as you go.
Plated ships via FedEx and arrives either on Tuesdays or Wednesdays, depending on where you live. Mine arrives on Tuesdays, which works out quite nicely.
Plated used the thinner packaging materials again this week, which I really like since it’s less waste. We opted for the following two meals this week:
~Chicken with White Wine Pan Sauce: This one was yummy! Totally a “safe” pick for us and I know that we’d have this again. I think we’d make the potatoes a tad differently though because they seemed a bit salty? They could have been better, but they certainly weren’t bad. And I don’t know if I ever mentioned it, but you can go to “Past Recipes” on Plated and get the recipes for pretty much everything they have offered on their site. How awesome is that? Plus, they have reviews by members who have made them saying what they would tweak or change, etc. on them which is great. I always try to link to the recipes too when I can.
~Seared Salmon with Winter Citrus Salad: I’m not sure what happened with this one. The salmon was delicious. But the rice? That needed to be cooked a lot longer than the recipe called for. A lot longer. I think B just gave up because we were so hungry! I think it would have been amazing had the rice been done correctly!
Did you get Plated last week? What’d you think? Next week’s meals (1/28 or 1/29 deliver) are pretty much sold out, but you can order for (2/4 or 2/5) delivery right now as well! The 2/4 Menu options are: Skirt Steak with Cilantro Chimichurri and Carrot-Citrus Hash (my pick), Vegetable Fried Rice (my pick), Pollock in Parchment with Potatoes and Roasted Carrots, Shrimp Scampi with Pecorino Roasted Broccoli, Tofu Vegetable Kebabs with Edamame Soba Noodles, Cauliflower Spinach Empanadas with Spinach Salad and Arroz con Pollo!
If you are interested in giving it a try or want to learn more, click here to try two free plates (new customers only). Basically you’ll get 4 plates for the price of 2 ($30)!! That’s 4 meals/plates for $30, which is less than $8/plate.
