WW RECOMMENDED
We know a balanced diet can be delicious—and so does WW (formerly Weight Watchers). We’ve partnered with them to provide at least three WW Recommended recipes per week, helping you stay on track and meet your goals by making it easy to scan and track Points® based on your myWW+ plan.
GO FOR VEGGIES
Some of our 600 calorie or less recipes can be found on the Vegetarian menu, which puts veggies front and center and offers a variety of both plant-based proteins and animal byproducts (eggs and dairy). We champion variety, so you’ll never find yourself in a dinnertime rut. Just because you’re skipping meat, doesn’t mean you’re skipping flavor. All recipes are tested, tasted, and vetted by Blue Apron’s culinary team.
