Hello! How’s it going? I have an awesome Blue Apron Giveaway to share today. Plus, they are offering RER blog readers a discount on their first delivery. I kind of feel like this is perfect timing for the holidays. Life is busy and if you’re like me you’re cooking for Thanksgiving and pot lucks. That means week night dinners are an after thought. Well, let Blue Apron do the thinking and shopping. Boom.
I got the delivery a few days ago and made the Garlic Shrimp that night. This was super easy to prep and make. But it looks super fancy!
And of course it was delicious. I’m a big big fan of rice. I should just make a massive batch every week and have it daily.
The next night I busted out my new Scanpan to make the Crunchy Parmesan Chicken.
I am the president of “getting people to eat more veggies by telling them to roast ‘em club”. It’s a real thing.
So I was very happy that both of this week’s recipes included roasting the veggies. If you don’t roast broccoli and/or brussel sprouts you are living life wrong.
My new pan cooked up the crunchy chicken perfectly. It’s nice and sturdy and well made (my previous frying pan has a loose handle, which made me nervous).
And I just realized I should be wearing a blue apron in this post!! (Fun fact: Chefs in training around the world wear blue aprons – it’s a symbol of lifelong learning in cooking.)
I loved everything about this meal. I love sweet potatoes and roasted broccoli and the breaded chicken was delicious. Love all of it. The recipe is on their Recipe Page.
Blue Apron Discount and Scanpan GIVEAWAY
First 50 readers will get two free meals on their first Blue Apron order! The free meals will be added to the account when you use this Blue Apron Link. (It’s free shipping and you can cancel at any time.)
Want to be pan twins? The lovely people at Blue Apron are giving one RER reader this fancy Scanpan pan! I just threw mine in the dishwasher after cooking up the chicken – love pans that are easy to use and clean.
