This post is sponsored by Blue Apron. Good morning! Today, I’m bringing you another inspiring recipe from Blue Apron , one of my favorite blog partners. I have an offer for those of you who have yet to try it: the first 50 readers will get $40 off their first two weeks of Blue Apron orders. What I love about Blue Apron is you can start, skip, and stop at any time. I keep my account active and schedule weeks when they are convenient, so we get a little dose of Blue Apron each month. We eat the best those weeks! I always choose the Family Plan because the portions are plentiful, so we have enough for two adults, a 5-year-old, and leftovers. Especially on nights when we don’t have Mazen, we often eat the dinner two nights in a row. It’s great to cook once and eat twice. That’s what we did with this recipe. Tilapia Piccata with Orzo, Zucchini, and Sweet Peppers There are many benefits to the Blue Apron service: -No visit to the grocery store, as all ingredients come to your doorst
