Blue Apron Meal #3 ~ Vietnamese Chicken Wings

Hi there everyone. Well, as I said yesterday, I would post the 3rd meal from Blue Apron  here today. The "Vietnamese Chicken Wings with Lemongrass Brown Rice" was really delicious. On my comment to Blue Apron about this dish, my only complaint was that there were not enough chicken wings to share between two people and I would  have liked a few more. Well, I guess I shall have to buy a whole package of chicken wings and cook some up using this recipe real soon.

So in this picture is the recipe card, the back of the card shows step by step how to make this recipe.

Here are the items that made up this recipe....everything is sent in the box to make the wings, rice and salad.

And in this picture is the finished dish.....yes, I would make this again. But maybe on a cooler night. The kitchen was really, really warm after having the oven on for 25 minutes. It was one of the warmest days of the season so far and our air-conditioner unit was not working. Lots of fans blowing in this house lately.

Well, as I sit here typing this post, I am waiting for our next order to be delivered by FedEx.....yeah, it's 5:15 pm. Gosh, hope it did not get dropped off at another address again. I already contacted Blue Apron and FedEx today about that order....we shall see what happens in the next few hours.

It seems the box of food left New Jersey, Tuesday at 9pm. They give you a tracking number, so you can follow it....I think after I finish here, I will go to FedEx and see if it's been delivered....if it was, it sure was not delivered here.

So you all have a good day and keep looking up. My next post probably will be tomorrow with an update about my order and a few pictures if it was delivered.

Cheers ~ Louise

Blue Apron Meal #2 - Summer Soba Salad

Hi there everyone. How is your day going. It's been warm here and our window air conditioner in the kitchen konked out....sucks!!! So needless to say, it has been warm in the kitchen when I cook.

Just to let you know.....card making has not been a priority on my list of late....that's why you have not seen any cards. My only excuses are:
#1- no inspiration,
#2- hard to see, (as I am now going through cataract surgeries)
#3-still disorganized from home improvements that were made in May. I look at the mess in the basement and just don't know where to start organizing first.
#4-summer has been the priority with planting, watering and enjoying the season.
#5-just not feeling up to par the past couple of months.

So much for my tail of woes. In the next few pictures is the food I received from Blue Apron last Thursday to make this tasty meal Monday evening. Here is the site for Blue Apron.

Summer Soba Salad with Corn and Soy-Mirin Dressing

Here are all the vegies prepped and ready, one thing not prepped was the ginger....did that after I took the picture. The ginger was added to the corn....just may do that again....now's the time with corn being so fresh. The ginger gave it that extra spicy zing!!!

So in the below picture is the finished product....oh yes......this was delicious, I most definitely will make this again. When you order  your food, you can order for two people or four. Even for two people this was more then enough for the two of us.

If you go on the Blue Apron site, go to their "cookbook" and type in "Summer Soba Salad",  you can get the recipe there if you are interested in making this tasty salad. Tomorrow, my new order comes. I will take pictures.

I told JP this afternoon...."you sure have been eating well this week"....there has been plenty of left-overs for his lunch before leaving for work.

Tomorrow, I will post the 3rd meal, "Vietnamese Chicken Wings with Salad and Rice". Another winner in my books.

Have a good evening and keep looking up. Cheers ~ Louise
