Been a while

I know I haven't posted in a long time but its the summer and well things get busy.  Lately I have been only getting 2 meals a week just because usually we have been doing stuff over the weekend.  One thing I have discovered is that if you are only ordering 2 meal you should get a dessert as well, because really it only costs you $2 (as the $8 cost bumps you into the free shipping category so you save the $6 shipping cost).  So this means I have been getting more desserts which is fine but I really wish at least for the summer they would have more stovetop or even no cook desserts (I really hate putting on my oven, and I even have central air).

Ok here is a run down of my latest meals and just a brief description (starting with the most recen

Beef and scallion meatballs - This was fine, meatball ok nothing to write home about.  Didn't really like the glaze, but might be because I burned the soy sauce.  Noodles were good but I think the red peppers should be cut smaller.

Linguini with crab - Liked this quite a bit.  I added some half and half to make it creamier but I like creamy.

Black ramen noodles - I also liked this quite a bit and was pretty easy.  Maybe too many veggies to for the amount of noodle though.

Hawaiian style fajitas - Ok but wouldn't get them again.  In general I find that the tortillas (and a lot of the bread products they send ) are not that great or else don't hold up well.  Maybe because they have to be denser.  Liked the sweetness of the pineapple though.

Tamarind beef wraps - pretty good but thought they needed some starch so I added some left over rice to them.

Pork Tonkatsu - I think this was good but don't remember much about it.

Duck confit tacos - OK but not worth the effort or money.  Loved the duck breast they had a while back and was hoping this would be as good, alas not.

OK there is a lot more so I will just highlight the ones I really liked.

Gruyere Asparagus Pizza - Loved the balsamic sauce.  And this made a lot of food.

Garlicky Chicken with Squash - Chicken was salty (in a good way from anchoveys and capers).

Avocado Quinoa Salad - So many things in this salad I loved and they all came together nicely.

Biggest disappointment - Stuffed Portobello Caps - barely edible (and not edible for my husband but hes not a big fan of mushrooms)
