Ingredients
1 Yellow Squash
8 oz. Cooked White Rice
4 fl. oz. Cream Sauce Base
8 oz. Patagonian Petite Scallops
2 oz. Baby Spinach
1 oz. Shredded Parmesan Cheese
⅘noz.nLemon Garlic Butter
2 tsp. Vegetable Base
1 tsp. Buttermilk-Dill Seasoning
½ tsp. Garlic Salt
How to make it
1
Coarsely chop the spinach. Trim and halve the yellow squash lengthwise; cut into 1/4-inch half-moons. Pat the scallops dry and season all over with salt and pepper.
2
Massage the rice in its bag to break up any clumps. Place a medium pot over medium heat. Add 1/4 cup water, the cream base, vegetable base, and garlic salt; stir and bring to a simmer. Once simmering, add the rice and half the cheese (reserve the rest for garnish). Stir occasionally until combined and slightly thickened, 4-6 minutes. Add more water 1 tablespoon at a time if too thick. Remove from heat. Continue with the recipe while the risotto cooks.
3
Place a medium nonstick pan over medium-high heat and add 2 tsp. olive oil. Add the yellow squash and a pinch of salt; stir occasionally until slightly browned and tender, 4-5 minutes. Add the spinach and buttermilk-dill seasoning; stir occasionally until the spinach wilts, 2-3 minutes.
4
Add 2 tsp. olive oil and the scallops to the hot pan. Cook undisturbed, 90 seconds. Stir occasionally until the scallops reach 145°F, 60-90 seconds more. Remove from heat. Stir in the softened butter until melted and combined. Divide the risotto between bowls, top with the scallop and vegetable mixture, and garnish with the remaining cheese.

Be the first to rate this meal ↓ Opening I tracked my meal delivery spending through three summers. The pattern’s embarrassing: June hits, I promise myself I’ll meal prep and eat clean, then by July I’m ordering Chipotle at 9 PM because it’s 95 degrees and I can’t face turning on the stove. August? Full...
Be the first to rate this meal ↓ Opening I went vegan for 90 days while working 60-hour weeks. Not because I’m some wellness influencer with a meal prep Sunday ritual. because I wanted to see if it was actually possible without turning into the person who brings sad lettuce to every work lunch. The...
Be the first to rate this meal ↓ Opening I fed a family of six for three months using nothing but meal delivery services. My Costco membership gathered dust. My freezer became a staging area for Blue Apron boxes instead of bulk chicken thighs. The math shocked me. A family of six ordering Chipotle twice...
Be the first to rate this meal ↓ Opening I spent last summer testing every meal delivery service that promised to keep me eating clean while Nashville hit 95 degrees by 10 AM. The goal: figure out which services actually deliver fresh food that doesn’t wilt in transit, and which ones are just marketing “summer...
Be the first to rate this meal ↓ Opening I’ve cooked through a lot of meal kits trying to impress dates. Some worked. Some. did not. The difference between a fun couples’ cooking night and a kitchen disaster comes down to three things: timing (nobody wants to be chopping onions at 9 PM), difficulty (if...

Be the first to rate this meal ↓ Opening I spent three months feeding my nephew dinner from meal delivery services. He’s eight, picky as hell, and thinks vegetables are a personal attack. By week two, I had strong opinions. Here’s what I learned: most meal kits aren’t actually designed for kids. They’re designed for...
Be the first to rate this meal ↓ Opening I’ve spent more money on date night meal delivery than I care to admit. Not because I’m some kind of romantic. because I got tired of the same three restaurants and the “what do you want to eat” standoff that kills the vibe before you even...
Be the first to rate this meal ↓ Opening I tracked my mom’s Uber Eats spending for a month. $387. That number made me physically uncomfortable. She’s not ordering fancy stuff. just dinner because she’s exhausted after work and the idea of chopping vegetables sounds like a personal attack. The delivery apps know this. They...
Be the first to rate this meal ↓ Opening I spent $420 on a week of Sakara meals. That’s not a typo. $420 for five days of plant-based food delivered to my door in Brooklyn. The box showed up looking like it belonged in a Goop photo shoot, packed in compostable materials with little cards...
