Beefy baked mac and cheese with cheesy breadcrumbs

Review: Lol, this is hamburger helper. Don't get me wrong, "cheeseburger macaroni" was my favorite growing up. I expected more of a bake and less of a spread. Also, I didn't detect any breadcrumbs. Tasty enough for nostalgia. Won't order again.

Sesame-Ginger Tofu Poke Bowl

Love the different textures, crunch with the soft and the flavor was on point. Surprised at how flavorful the tofu was.

Do you think .4oz of chicken is 43g of protein?

At what point do you cancel? I know the protein is never accurate but this is beyond ridiculous.

The Best Meal on CU

There were some shipping issues, so this wasn't a looker, but not exaggerating, this was the best thing I’ve received from CU. The beef was fork tender but not mushy; the mashed potatoes were divine. The sauce was seasoned so well but not salty. I have the Unity Pass, and this pot roast was better than any premium short rib or steak offered. If this is available in your area, I highly recommend it. Now I want to order everything Babish has to offer!

Classic beef stroganoff

This was my first time having this because I’ve always been put off by the calorie count. It was good. It’d been a long time since I’d had stroganoff and had forgotten it’s not very exciting, though…this is also a meal that’s very lacking in vegetables, other than the 4-5 peas in it, and of course, salad is risky right now. 😆

This was another CU box where the lining was coming off.

Is that the neatest looking bag ever???

Wow!! I just got my delivery right now. It was weird cause usually a get a tracking link but today he just showed up and called me and he's here, so i know right away is not the usual lady driver, cause she knows my door and would just leave it there. So i go out to meet him, give him my old bag etc etc, and then the CU tracking showed that it was delivered. But wow! This bag looks like it has not moved at all. All neatly stacked and straight, nothing out of place. That's amazing. My bags are always ok looking, but it's visible that it's been in a car/van moving around the city. This is just so neat. Kudos to the new driver guy.

Finally joined CU after years of faffing, second ever delivery and I've got metal in my food

Bruh, what on earth?

Seems like a thick tin foil. Had a definite energized metal taste on the tongue. I think I got it all but who knows if I ate some. 🥴

Is this a common thing? Can't say I'm super pumped about this happening only two deliveries in.

It's been an awesome food adventure, Cook Unity. I will miss you!

For anyone considering trying Cook Unity, DO IT. I've loved the experience of eating from many different cuisines that I would have never gotten to try otherwise. I've always experienced excellent customer service. I will miss the food, posting pictures and being a part of the Cook Unity Communities. I will miss the variety, and the whole Cook Unity experience.

My dog turns 6 today and just found out he needs a complex emergency surgery costing many thousands, or he will die. He comes before me. I can eat rice and chicken on sale for a year while I recoup financially. He can't live without surgery. His life comes first.

I wish Cook Unity and everyone on this sub the absolute best. I've never had a bad meal (or dessert!) and will miss all of it!

Guajillo Braised Beef Tamale

This was a little different from tamales I've had before, with the corn only going about 2/3rds of the way around, but it was very tasty and filling. I wasn't a fan of the salsa verde, so I used some red salsa as well as the supplied crema.

Fellow vegetarian/vegan friends, what are your favorite meals?

Caramelized Mushroom Quesadilla, Tofu Green Curry and Baked Tofu Tikka Masala have been some of my go-tos as of late.

Creamy Shrimp Scampi Cavatelli

I forgot to save the cover for the photo so here’s a screen shot and a photo of my meal. My husband and I are both a fan of this one.

I took a break from cookunity but I returned.

Long story short I canceled cook unity about 6 months ago over a 10.00 disagreement and a rude support agent (the only rude one I ever had). I missed the meals so I signed back up but I elected not to use the military plan so I could get more choices. I can say the selection is much better without the military plan and I received my meals today and I will say they used plenty of ice packs this time for 18 meals (lack of ice packs was an issue last year), the meal I tried today (I posted a review) was the "Pork Asado Bao Buns" and it was delicious. I ordered some premium meals this time as well so I am looking forward to trying them.

Espresso Brown Butter Chocolate Chip Cookie with Dark Chocolate Chips

With cold milk for dessert. I heated them up and made them all soft and gooey 😋

Pork Asado Bao Buns

Wow, this is delicious! I already ate one so you actually get more than what is in the picture.

Haven’t posted in a while - 4 recent meals

Haven’t posted in a bit - I rotated off cook unity for a few weeks and tried Locale, which is in San Fran and Los Angeles. I don’t plan on quitting cook unity by any means, just adding some variety. Here’s 4 recent meals I was really happy with. That maple bourbon blackened chicken was fantastic! The grilled chicken Caesar wrap was good, and filling. It’s basically his salad but in a wrap. I liked the way the Piri Piri and lemongrass chicken was grilled. It added a nice char flavor to the chicken, which was a nice change from the standard oven baked chicken.
