600 Calories Or Less
All of these delicious recipes come in at 600 calories or less per serving, ideal for those who choose to monitor their caloric intake, without sacrificing flavor. The US Food & Drug Administration recommends a 2000 calorie daily intake for the general population. The 600 calorie cap equates to 30% of total 2000 calories per day based on 3 meals per day with 200 calories remaining for snack or beverage.
Carb Conscious
Our Carb Conscious recipes provide a balanced approach to carbohydrate consumption by replacing refined carbohydrates from sources like white flour, rice, and cane sugar with high-fiber foods like fresh vegetables, fruits, and whole grains. Our Carb Conscious recipes have 42g or less of net carbohydrates (total carbohydrates minus dietary fiber) per serving, a 25% reduction in net carbs compared to the average Blue Apron recipe served in 2019. Due to the natural variation in size of and contribution of produce in our recipes, some recipes can be badged as Carb Conscious at 45g or less net carbs per serving.
Mediterranean Diet
Our Mediterranean recipes are inspired by the Mediterranean Diet, a healthy eating plan recommended in the Dietary Guidelines for Americans published jointly every five years by the US Department of Agriculture (USDA) and the Department of Health & Human Services (DHHS). This eating plan highlights the flavors and cooking styles from countries along the Mediterranean Sea, including those in Europe, the Middle East, and North Africa. These recipes showcase a wide variety of vegetables, fruits, and whole grains, as well as lean proteins and moderate portions of dairy.
Plant-Forward
Our Plant-Forward recipes are designed by our chefs to help support a flexible diet that emphasizes plant-based foods like fresh fruits and vegetables, whole grains, beans and other legumes like lentils and soy foods, and includes occasional, moderate portions of meat, poultry, fish, and seafood.

instructions
1
Prepare the ingredients:
Wash and dry the fresh produce. Peel and medium dice the onion. Medium dice the sweet potatoes. Peel and roughly chop the garlic. Cut out and discard the core of the cabbage; thinly slice the leaves.
2
Cook the chicken:
In a large pot, heat 2 teaspoons of olive oil on medium-high until hot. Add the chicken and season with salt and pepper. Cook, frequently breaking the meat apart with a spoon, 4 to 5 minutes, or until browned and cooked through. Leaving any browned bits (or fond) in the pot, transfer to a plate.
3
Start the chili:
Add a drizzle of olive oil to the pot of reserved fond; heat on medium-high until hot. Add the diced onion and sweet potatoes; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring frequently, 5 to 6 minutes, or until slightly softened. Add the chopped garlic, sliced cabbage, and spice blend; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, 1 to 2 minutes, or until slightly softened and fragrant.
4
Add the tomatoes:
Add the tomatoes, 2 1/2 cups of water, and the chile paste; season with salt and pepper. Increase the heat to high and cook, stirring occasionally and scraping up any fond, 20 to 22 minutes, or until the liquid is thickened to your desired consistency and the sweet potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork.
5
Prepare the remaining ingredients:
While the chili cooks, halve the orange; squeeze the juice into a bowl, straining out any seeds. Cut off and discard the ends of the radishes; halve lengthwise, then thinly slice crosswise. Place in a bowl; drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Pit, peel, and medium dice the avocado. Place in a bowl and top with a drizzle of olive oil to prevent browning. Season with salt and pepper.
6
Finish the chili & serve your dish:
Add the cooked chicken and orange juice to the pot of chili. Cook, stirring frequently, 2 to 4 minutes, or until thoroughly combined. Turn off the heat. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve the finished chili with the seasoned radishes and avocado on the side. Enjoy!
