Reviews from our home cooks
Recipe was quite basic. Tasted good because I love asparagus but would like more flavors. Would be nice to have an actual recipe for this rather than just bake with olive oil.
Actually I boiled the asparagus for 7 minutes instead of roasting because we like it best that way
The asparagus looked fresh and in good shape. They were even nicely trimmed.
Did not cook it for about 4 days but it was still fresh and crisp.
Your asparagus and the leafy greens are the freshest and best veggies.
Would have been good if the instructions were in the box, as opposed to needing to look online.
Very small portion for a separate side item. There is a larger portion included with the meals.
You don't always list fresh veggies each week. Love this option. Would be interested in getting zucchini or carrots or whatever produce is in season that you can ship. Thanks.
Fresh on arrival and stayed fresh in the bag. Was a yummy and healthy meal addition.
Love. Easy, fresh, simple, quick handy to have on hand.
