Not to mention, festive sides, shareable desserts, and *spoiler alert* our special Holiday Boxes, coming soon!
Scroll on to explore our December menu highlights and start building your dream winter menu.
Pork-Miso Ramen with Shiitake Mushrooms (Week of 12/2)
When it comes to soul-warming soups, there are no shortage of contenders. Italian pastina, egg drop soup, a classic chicken noodle… the list goes on. But if you’re craving rich flavor, wholesome ingredients, and simply outstanding vibes, a steaming bowl of ramen always satisfies (even for the pickiest of eaters)! Our version upgrades those instant noodles with tender pork slices, umami-rich shiitake mushrooms, furikake seasoning, and a perfect soft-boiled egg. Now that’s hard to beat!
Braised Lamb Shank with Persian Jeweled Rice & Delicata Squash (Week of 12/9)
Holidays may be for family and friends, but your partner deserves some attention too! The good news is you don’t have to brave the cold (or the prices of dining out) – you can host a stellar date night dinner from the comfort of your kitchen. Just bring home the Braised Lamb with Persian Jeweled Rice & Delicata Squash from our December menu. Fork-tender, melt-in-your-mouth lamb shanks fall right off the bone and directly onto a bed of sweet, savory rice packed with warming spices, toasted nuts, and slivers of Medjool dates. You know, because it’s date night? (Yep, you can steal that).
Seared Salmon, Kale, & Roasted Delicata Squash with Pomegranate Molasses (Week of 12/16)
We love a festive feast as much as anyone, but between all the holidays this time of year, the indulgence can get a little out of hand. We’ll never take your winter treats, but we can probably sway you towards a few lighter, leaner options for your December menu. Especially with delicious, best-selling dishes like our Seared Salmon, Kale, & Roasted Delicata Squash with Pomegranate Molasses on our side. It’s light on the sugar and starch, but packs in plenty of flavor, thanks to crispy-skinned salmon, sweet, nutty winter squash, and buttery kale – all drizzled with a bright, tangy pomegranate glaze.
Roasted Chicken with Mushroom Bread Pudding & Brussels Sprouts for Four (Week of 12/23)
As we approach the holidays, you might be pulling some extra chairs up to your table. And while our Holiday Boxes are the go-to move for a truly festive feast, our Meal Kits for 4 are perfect for creating intentional leftovers, inviting friends for a micro dinner party, or just feeding a few more mouths than usual. For this holiday week, our December menu includes a crowd-pleasing classic: our Roasted Chicken with Mushroom Bread Pudding & Brussels Sprouts for 4. We borrowed inspiration from our favorite holiday spreads to curate the perfect plate – roasted Brussels sprouts, crispy roast chicken, and a savory “stuffing” of seasoned croutons and cremini mushrooms. Don’t forget the gravy – we included that too!
