For this week, our HelloFresh box arrived on Monday. I took Monday and Tuesday off from work this week and have more time to cook HelloFresh during the day.
Kadai-Style Paneer with Peppers and Garlicky Basmati Rice
We cooked this meal Monday for lunch and had the leftovers for Wednesday's lunch.
I love HelloFresh when everything goes smoothly but immensely despise it when an ingredient is missing. It would have been forgivable if it was garlic or onions that I could quickly get in the grocery. But if it's a spice missing, then it's annoying.
Dal Spice is missing from this recipe, and I found out when I started cooking it. I don't plan to buy a bottle of Indian Dal Spice just because I need a tablespoon for this recipe. As expected, the lack of spice made the dish extremely bland. I am so disappointed.
Wednesday Update: My husband was preparing to throw out the trash, and he found the Dal Spice inside the paper bag. Gah. I feel bad and stupid because I blamed HelloFresh for giving us bland food when I should have looked closer at the paper bag.
Fajita-Style Beef Bowls with Basmati Rice and Lime Crema
We cooked this meal Wednesday for dinner and had the leftovers for Thursday's lunch.
Delicious! Although I think I went overboard with adding too much lime zest on the lime crema and wished there were a bit more tomatoes, overall a delightful dish.
Maple-Ginger Chicken Stir-Fry with Garlic Rice
We cooked this meal Thursday for dinner and had the leftovers for Monday's lunch.
It's sweet. If you don't like sweet meat, then I don't recommend this dish. Even with all the ginger in the box and salt, I still find it a bit too sweet.
Cal Smart Turkey Salad with Creamy Dressing and Feta
We cooked this meal Friday for lunch and had the leftovers for Tuesday's lunch.
I love the crispy apples, the turkey's juiciness, and the feta's saltiness. Overall, a wonderful low-calorie quick lunch.
Tuscan Sausage Linguine with Sweet Bell Pepper, Chili and Parmesan
We cooked this meal Sunday for lunch and had the leftovers for Wednesday's lunch.
I love the chili flakes and the heat it brings in. Overall, one of the heartiest pasta sauces HelloFresh has to offer.
Spicy Gochujang Veggie Bibimbap Bowls with Jasmine Rice and Fried Eggs
We cooked this meal Sunday for dinner and had the leftovers for Friday's lunch.
First, I love the portobello mushrooms. On my first bite, the texture reminded me of bulgogi. The gochujang sauce was perfect. I hate that this dish tastes so good without meat.
I don't have any more discounts from HelloFresh, so I am uncertain when I might get a box again.
