Reviewing:  Crispy Buffalo spice chicken with blue cheese sauce, sour cream 'n' chive mashed potatoes and roasted carrots. 1 serving prepared

One modification was made to eliminate gluten. This recipe is largely oven based making it perfect if you have other tasks to complete. The recipe can be found on the Hellofresh website. 

Here's what you get:

Yukon Gold potatoes 
Carrots 
Chives 
Fry seasoning 
Sour cream 
Chicken cutlet 
Panko bread crumbs (not used)
**1/4 cup parmesan substituted 
Frank's RedHot original seasoning blend Blue cheese dressing 
Cholula hot sauce

The potatoes:
These were super easy to put together, I made them smoother than the picture suggested I ended up boiling and waiting until everything else was nearly done to finish them. Out of all the prep this took the most time to complete.

The protein:
Since I can't have panko, parmesan became the breading substitute. I didn't need to use butter for the breadcrumb mix per directions, the season mixed really well with the parm cheese. Getting the chicken ready for the oven went quickly.

The carrots:
Roasting veggies really only takes a little bit of effort. I didn't add much salt to the fry seasoning before oiling and seasoning the carrots. If I try this recipe again I might swap carrots for steamed green beans or broccoli instead.

The sauce:
This was easy to prepare since no reduction was necessary. I was new to blue cheese dressing and a bit skeptical but this wasn't bad. 

The plate:

Being rather large baby about spicy stuff I was a little hesitant to use too much of the hot sauce. This brand isn't crazy hot thankfully. The only thing I didn't like, everything was so orange and white!  The dish itself needed a bit more color in my opinion but it all tasted really good and I think I'll be making this one again.

Reviewing: Chicken sausage sweet potato and kale soup. 1 serving prepared  Here's what you get: Forgot the cheese! Sweet potato  Kale  Italian chicken sausage mix  Chili flake  Yellow onion  Italian seasoning  Chicken stock concentrate  Parmesan cheese  Not used: Demi baguette  The soup: Per instructions I started by cooking the onion and sausage together until the onions are browned and the sausage was cooked through.  Next the sweet potatoes, stock concentrate and spice packet was added along with 1 in 1/4 cup of vegetable broth. After the soup was done simmering for 7 minutes per instruction I put the kale in and let it cook for an additional seven minutes. Side: Since I can't have the baguette I made some GF cheese crackers to go along with the soup today. The process for that will be posted at a later date. The plate: And flat bread - Kris
