DIY Meal Kits | Week 3

This week, I have one recipe to share, and it is a winner. We all liked this dish so much that I wish I had doubled or even tripled the recipe so we had more leftovers.

If you are unfamiliar with the BHH concept of DIY meal kits, please read this post first. The initial recipe post in this series is also helpful and informative.


Spinach-Artichoke Rigatoni

I promise that not every DIY meal kit recipe is going to be a casserole, but it is the dead of winter around here and currently -3° F. Baking casseroles just feels right this time of year. A side benefit is that the heat of the oven keeps the kitchen toasty too.

Recipe: Spinach-Artichoke Rigatoni

Recipe Notes:

  • Serves 4-6
  • This dish could easily double or triple.
  • Reducing the amount of cheese will not alter the flavor, and it is a healthier choice.
  • If you are not averse to adding more carbs, a mix of 1/3 c. bread crumbs, a TBSP of olive oil, and 1/4 c. Parmesan would make a delicious crispy topping since this dish is finished under the broiler. (Double or triple as necessary.)
  • Total preparation time: Exactly 30 minutes

Please let me know if you are making DIY meal kits at your house? Have you tried any of the recipes I linked this month? I would love your feedback about this system, the process, and anything else you would like to share.

Storage containers:
We use these Sistema KLIP IT boxes (shown today) or the larger size depending on our needs. We are also big fans of 1.3 cup Snapware* for small portions. They fit nicely in the Sistema Klip-it storage boxes. I also recently added these tiny lidded glass containers (intended for baby food, but they work perfectly for spices or small portions).

*This links to the plastic version, but we prefer glass. Unfortunately, the glass containers, sold in sets of four, seem difficult to find now. This ten-piece set includes the small Snapware containers we use as well as some additional, useful sizes.

    It’s times like this I wish my husband were NORMAL and ate cheese! This looks absolutely delicious! One point you could add to the bullets at the end: non-vegetarians could add cooked chicken or sausage to this to add protein. Loved your bullet about decreasing cheese if desired. I don’t even have to make this to know it’s a winner!

      Haha! Also, that’s a great suggestion for a bullet point. Thank you!
