How to make it
1
• Wash and dry produce.
• Trim, peel, and halve carrots lengthwise; thinly slice crosswise into half-moons. Trim and thinly slice scallions, separating whites from greens.
2
• Remove sausage from casing if necessary; discard casing.
• Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add sausage, carrots, and scallion whites; cook, breaking up meat into pieces, until browned and cooked through, 4-6 minutes.
3
• Add garlic powder to pot with sausage and veggies; cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant, 30 seconds.
• Stir in 3 ¼ cups water (6 ½ cups for 4 servings), couscous, and stock concentrates, scraping up any browned bits from bottom of pot.
• Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to a low simmer. Cook until couscous is tender, 4-5 minutes. (You’ll add more to the pot in Step 5.)
4
• Cut broccoli into bite-size pieces if necessary.
• Zest and quarter lemon.
5
• Once soup has simmered 4-5 minutes, add broccoli. Cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, 2-3 minutes.
• Remove soup from heat; stir in crème fraîche, a squeeze of lemon juice (big squeeze for 4 servings), and as much lemon zest as you like. Taste and season with salt, pepper, and more lemon juice if desired.
6
• Divide soup between bowls and sprinkle with scallion greens. Serve.
Pork is fully cooked when internal temperature reaches 145°.

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 ordering from every meal delivery service that claims to be “senior-friendly.” Some of them actually are. Most just slapped a stock photo of a smiling grandparent on their homepage and called it a day. Here’s what actually matters if you’re over 65...
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...
