Not our name, but our passion
Tonight’s HelloFresh was Butternut Squash Agnolotti. We added on a loaf of garlic bread and some caramelized onion and feta cheese pastry bites both available as add-ons from HelloFresh. We are enjoying the vegetarian meals from HelloFresh and are getting one or two of them per week for a pleasant change from meat dishes. 9 out of 10.
The onion & Feta bites made a fantastic appetizer
This add-on from HelloFresh was exceptional. The crispy puff pastry was filled with Feta and caramelized onion to make the perfect appetizer. Very simple prep; just remove from packaging, put on baking sheet and place in oven. Alex and I both gave them a 10 out of 10.

When purchasing some high quality olives like these from Tassos do not throw away the brine. There are many extraordinary uses; add brine to your marinara or pizza sauce. This is particularly great with a spicy puttanesca or vodka cream sauce. Try a vinaigrette of olive oil, fresh grapefruit juice, white wine vinegar, olive brine and Dijon mustard. It can be a great flavorful ingredient in a number of applications.
It can even be used as a beverage
Alex would not recommend!!
