How to make it
1
Adjust rack to top position (top and middle positions for 4 servings) and preheat oven to 425 degrees. Wash and dry produce. Trim and halve Brussels sprouts. Trim, peel, and cut carrots on a diagonal into ½-inch-thick pieces. Halve, peel, and cut onion into ½-inch-thick wedges. Halve tomato; cut into ½-inch-thick wedges. Peel and mince or grate garlic. Zest and quarter lemon.
2
On a baking sheet, toss Brussels sprouts, carrots, onion, tomato, and garlic with a large drizzle of oil, half the Tuscan Heat Spice (all for 4 servings), salt, and pepper. (For 4, toss as instructed, then divide between two baking sheets.)Roast on top rack until browned and tender, 15-20 minutes. (For 4, roast on top and middle racks, swapping rack positions halfway through cooking.)
3
Meanwhile, in a small pot, combine polenta and ⅓ cup water (⅔ cup for 4 servings) over medium heat. Mash with a potato masher until mostly smooth, 30-60 seconds.Add sour cream, cream cheese, stock concentrate, half the Parmesan, and 1 TBSP butter (2 TBSP for 4).Whisk until cheese melts and polenta is simmering and thickened, 2-3 minutes more. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Keep covered off heat until ready to serve.
4
Once veggies are done roasting, carefully add juice from half the lemon (whole lemon for 4 servings) and lemon zest to taste; toss to combine. Taste and season with salt and pepper if needed.Before serving, briefly stir polenta (rewarm over medium heat if necessary). TIP: If polenta seems too thick, stir in a splash of water. Divide polenta between shallow bowls and top with roasted veggies. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with remaining Parmesan. Serve with any remaining lemon wedges on the side.

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.

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 spent three months feeding my nephew dinner from meal delivery services. He’s eight, picky as hell, and thinks vegetables are a personal attack.

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...
