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.

From the Test Kitchen

This summer, we’re bringing you 12 weeks of recipes designed with busy schedules and flexibility in mind. For plenty of Greek-style flavor, we’re coating sautéed vegetables in a creamy tzatziki (or cucumber yogurt) sauce––elevated with a bit of lemon purée––to layer onto delightfully chewy focaccia.

Prepare the ingredients:
1 Prepare the ingredients:

Wash and dry the fresh produce. Cut the zucchini into 1/4-inch rounds. Halve, peel, and thinly slice the onion. Cut off and discard the stems of the peppers; remove the cores, then thinly slice into rings. Combine in a bowl. Quarter the bread, then halve each quarter horizontally. Roughly chop the lettuce. Halve the tomatoes. In a large bowl, whisk together the vinegar, za’atar, and 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Add the halved tomatoes; season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat. Set aside to marinate, stirring occasionally, at least 10 minutes. To make the sauce, in a separate large bowl, combine the tzatziki, oregano, lemon purée, and feta (crumbling before adding); season with salt and pepper.
