How To Cook Blue Apron: The Video

Here’s a peek into how to cook Blue Apron start to finish: join my family in a video story that covers everything from prepping ingredients to creating a special date night in! This post is sponsored by Blue Apron.

This recipe was one of Blue Apron‘s premium recipes for Valentine’s week: Seared Scallops & Mushroom Pasta with mixed nut & chocolate truffles. 

How to Cook Blue Apron: The Video

If you’re curious how to cook Blue Apron, here’s a sneak peek into the recipe preparation process. To capture the moments start to finish, we turn to video. 

 

About The Dish

Truffle Zest is my new favorite ingredient. It’s an ingredient I would not have had in my pantry if it weren’t for Blue Apron.

The dish featured fregola sarda pasta (like a pearled couscous) with baby spinach, mushrooms, garlic, crème fraîche, verjus blanc, and truffle. Crispy seared scallops were served on top!

Choose your recipes

Each week you can choose quick and easy recipes (simple recipes ready in 30 minutes or less), wellness recipes (focused on high-quality nutrition with a balance of vegetables, fruits, whole grains, and lean proteins), or premium recipes (add a few dollars to your plan for premium ingredients and a little extra all around). You can mix and match too! We usually do this and save the easier recipes for busier nights and the premium recipes for the weekends.

Blue Apron Promo Code

If you’re finally ready to give Blue Apron a try, I have a promo code just for you guys!

That’s $20 off a week for 5 weeks. You can do the 2-person plan for as low as $27 a week with this offer, or you can choose the 4-person plan (which I like because you can cook once, eat twice or feed more mouths).

    Hi Kath! Oh my gosh, that looks delicious. I’ve considered signing up for Blue Apron so many times, and this post might just put me over the top. One thing holds me back – the wastefulness of the packaging. Can you please speak to that, I know you are someone deeply concerned with making good environmental choices. Maybe it isn’t as bad as I’m imagining.

      While I do wish it arrived on my doorstep in a cloth reusable bag, the packaging is a little bit unavoidable. That said, Blue Apron has made every effort to minimize packaging and it’s all recyclable. I get deliveries from other brands in much worse packaging (like styrofoam coolers) so I think all in all the best thing is to make sure it gets recycled. The boxes themselves are the biggest piece and I often reuse them for transport or giving to friends who are moving. The product is (for the most part) loose in the bubble cooler so as much of it that can be unpackaged is.
