Lobster with Ravioli
Today, I'm showing you how we made Lobster Ravioli.
Ingredients for this recipe:
1 bag of shrimp-1 pound
1 package of cherry tomatoes-1 pint
1 package lobster ravioli- 8oz-12oz
1 teaspoon fresh tarragon
2-4 cloves of garlic
4-6 tablespoons sour cream
optional: shredded parmesan cheese
Directions:
Put water on for ravioli, and cook ravioli. Cut tomatoes in half. Smash garlic. Roughly chop tarragon. With a drizzle of oil, cook tomatoes and garlic for a few minutes, then add shrimp and cook until done. Add salt and pepper to taste. Add cooked ravioli to pan with tomatoes and shrimp. Add sour cream and mix together gentle. Top with tarragon to taste.
HelloFresh is a meal subscription service that delivers all the ingredients and recipe cards for three meals, each meant for two people, though I find the portions generous enough to feed more. The box arrives well packed with cotton insulation, two ice packs, and neatly organized bags for each meal, plus a section for meats and fish. Each recipe also comes with a beautifully printed card that includes instructions and nutritional information, and subscribers can choose from around eight to ten meal options each week.
In this box, we received three meals: Parmesan Crusted Fish, Italian Ciabatta Cheeseburgers, and Chicken Cheddar Fajitas. I started by opening the fish recipe bag, which included a carrot, lemon, potatoes, garlic, and Parmesan cheese, all perfectly fresh and great in quality. The dairy and produce have been consistent and reliable, and we’ve enjoyed every recipe so much that several have become family favorites. We’ve made some dishes multiple times even though this is only our fourth box.
Next, I unpacked the cheeseburger ingredients, which included ciabatta rolls, onions, dried cranberries, garlic, cheese, balsamic vinegar, cherry tomatoes, and a small can of tomato paste. The fajita bag had red bell pepper, jalapeño, lime, onion, sour cream, cheddar cheese, and flour tortillas, all labeled and ready to use. My kids shared their favorites as we unpacked. My son liked the cheeseburgers best, my daughter preferred the fajitas, and I was most excited about the fish since we are trying to add more seafood to our meals. Overall, the HelloFresh boxes have been a great value and a wonderful addition to our homeschool cooking lessons.

Buttered Up Steak
Today's recipe is definitely a new family favorite. I love the steak topping and have already made this one again. The potatoes are easy and tasty and a great alternative to French fries.
Oven roasted potatoes:
4 medium potatoes, peeled and cut into 3/4 inch cubes. You can use russet potatoes or you can use unpeeled (but scrubbed) new potatoes. Toss with olive oil, salt, pepper, cayenne pepper, garlic powder and a touch of cumin.
Bake at 430 degrees for 25-30 minutes, until the potatoes are browned and almost crispy on the outside and moist and soft on the inside. Serve hot...they don't last and they don't taste as good cooled down.

Hello Fresh Unboxing
I shared an unboxing of our third HelloFresh food subscription box, which has become a big part of our homeschool cooking class. I first learned about HelloFresh through Tanya at Project Happy Home and after receiving a free trial box, we enjoyed it so much that we decided to continue. Using these boxes as a foundation for our cooking lessons has inspired a new approach to teaching food preparation, nutrition, and kitchen skills.
This box included three meals: Lobster Ravioli and Shrimp, Buttered-Up Steak, and Winner Winner Chicken Orzo. Each meal came in a labeled paper bag with all the ingredients neatly organized except for the meat, which was stored separately between two large ice packs inside the insulated box. The packaging was impressive, keeping everything cold and fresh, with cotton insulation on all sides. I showed how the seafood and meats were still perfectly chilled, ready to refrigerate until cooking.
We unpacked each bag and looked at the fresh produce and other ingredients. The chicken orzo meal included zucchini, tomato, mozzarella, breadcrumbs, parsley, and Italian seasonings. The steak meal came with potatoes, green beans, garlic, Dijon mustard, and more herbs. The lobster ravioli bag included cherry tomatoes, tarragon, garlic, sour cream, and Parmesan cheese. Everything looked vibrant and high quality, with just the right portions and beautifully simple packaging. As we looked through the recipes, we decided to make the lobster ravioli and shrimp first since it looked so delicious. Each HelloFresh box has continued to impress us with fresh ingredients, creative flavors, and easy-to-follow recipes that work perfectly for our homeschool cooking lessons.

Melted Pepper Jack Cheese Burgers with Zucchini Spears
After receiving a free box from Hello Fresh, we decided to try the service out because we liked it so much and were impressed with the recipes and quality of the food. We soon realized that this food subscription box would work perfectly for our homeschool cooking class and the added perk is that it has enlivened our menu and brought our cookbook to life!
We ordered the box for two people with three meals, so a total of six meals for about $60. At $10 a meal, some would argue they could just eat out or buy far cheaper food from the grocery store and feed three times as many. While both statements are true, what that won't do is inspire you to cook, try new ingredients and recipes and enliven your menu with new recipes. For me, $60 is a cooking class for the kids and me, delicious meals, new recipes and ingredients we get to try and most importantly, we now have several new recipes that we cook often, love and have become family favorites. That's definitely worth $60.

Italian Ciabatta Cheeseburger
I shared a cooking lesson from our homeschool kitchen where my ten-year-old and I made Italian Ciabatta Cheeseburgers from a HelloFresh recipe. We’ve been using HelloFresh meals as part of a homeschool cooking class, and it has turned into one of our most enjoyable and delicious units. I started by slicing onions to caramelize them with a little oil and sugar while my son worked on chopping the garlic and preparing the salad that accompanied the burgers.
The salad was so good that I kept eating it while we cooked, and by the time the burgers were ready, there was hardly any left to serve. The simple dressing, made with tomato paste, balsamic vinegar, and garlic, was perfectly tangy and flavorful, and I’ll definitely be making it again. My son sliced the ciabatta rolls while I shaped and seasoned the burger patties, which we grilled for a few minutes on each side before topping with cheese.
We toasted the ciabatta buns, layered the burgers with caramelized onions, and served them with what was left of the salad. The combination of the juicy burgers, the sweet onions, and the bright, tangy salad made for an amazing meal that we devoured too quickly to photograph. This recipe is absolutely going into our family’s regular menu.

Parmesan Crusted Fish
I shared a cooking lesson from our homeschool kitchen where we made Parmesan Crusted Fish from a HelloFresh recipe. We’re currently on our fourth HelloFresh box, and it has been a great way to try new recipes and decide which ones to add to our family’s regular meals. We use the subscription as part of our homeschool cooking class, and my six-year-old daughter and ten-year-old son helped with chopping, cleaning, and preparing ingredients. It’s been a fun and practical way for them to learn cooking skills and how to follow recipe directions in the right order.
Each HelloFresh meal comes with a beautifully printed recipe card that includes clear directions and photographs. I recommend slipping the card into a sheet protector before cooking because it can easily get splashed or ruined. For this meal, we roasted potatoes and carrots with olive oil, salt, and pepper at 350°F for about ten minutes, while preparing the topping for the fish. The crust was made from parmesan, garlic, breadcrumbs, oil, and seasoning, and once the fish was washed and dried, we spread the mixture on top and baked it for another ten minutes until golden and bubbly.
When everything was ready, we tossed the hot potatoes with butter and parsley before plating the meal. The final dish looked beautiful and tasted even better, with generous portions that easily fed more than two people. We have really enjoyed using HelloFresh for both inspiration and hands-on learning in our homeschool, and if you want to see more of the recipes we’ve tried or our HelloFresh unboxing.

Chicken Orzo Dinner with Grilled Cheesy Vegetable
Today's recipe is easy and inspires anyone to eat more vegetables. The chicken and pasta are simple, but the zucchini is what takes this meal over the top. You'll want to make this just for the grilled zucchini with browned parmesan cheese.
Shortcut to zucchini recipe:
Slice one zucchini with medium slices. Cut one roma tomato into wedges. Toss both with olive oil, salt, pepper and italian seasoning. Roast at 350 for about 10 minutes. Remove from oven and top with 1/4 of parmesan, 1/4 cup of panko bread crumbs, some cut up fresh mozzarella, and salt & pepper (optional). Broil until melted and browned.
Serve with pan grilled chicken breast that's been butterflied and seasoned with Italian seasoning and orzo pasta.
