Here is what I received yesterday.

The box is huge and was waiting for me when I got home from work. Thank goodness there is a foam container and Ice packs in the box, because I didn't get home till late last night.


I ordered the Korean-Style Short Ribs with Asian Slaw and Sushi Rice, here is the recipe card that was inside the box.

Yummy, seeing that I am Half Korean, I wonder why I picked this item...lol
The Korean-Style Short Ribs with Asian Slaw and Sushi Rice was in for a world of hurt on my review if I did not like it!

The items were separated into different bags for the vegetable and meats.

I have tried Hello Fresh before, and this is similar, except they have a bit more variety on their recipes. Also, Plated ships every week and you have to either pay $10 per month for a membership or pay higher plate costs. You can however, cancel whenever you want!


I had my husband cook this order, because I wanted to see how easy it was for someone who had absolutely no clue of what to do in the kitchen (laughing hilariously).
The only problem I found is that he smoked us out of the house with this recipe, due to pan frying the ribs. However, the ribs tasted marvelous. I did not really care for the slaw or rice (and I love me some rice).
All in all, it was a great experience. I think watching my husband follow the recipe card and act like he was a full blown chef was the most exciting and humorous part of the experience; however, the food was pretty good.
