From the Test Kitchen

Need a night off from cooking? Our new Heat & Eat meals step up the standards for pre-made meals, delivering Blue Apron quality and flavor, in minutes. These meatballs get a deliciously spicy kick from a sauce that stars Calabrian chile paste (a specialty product made from red chiles native to the Southern Italian region). It’s all complete with creamy mashed potatoes and green beans, plus a zesty compound butter to finish.
