We haven’t had braised beef on the menu since February, which feels like a long time considering how many of y’all tell us it’s one of your favorite meals we make.

There’s something about the first week of fall that felt like the right time to finally bring it back.

This is one of those meals that just takes time. The beef is seasoned and slow cooked sous vide for hours until it’s fall-apart tender, then pulled into debris and finished with all of those juices to make a rich pan jus.

We’re serving it over creamy white cheddar polenta with roasted Brussels sprouts.

If you’ve been waiting for the braised beef to come back, this is your week. And if you’re new here and haven’t tried it yet, we don’t think you’ll be disappointed!

We hope y’all are enjoying your meals from yesterday! We want to know what your favorite thing you’ve eaten this week has been.

We’re of course a little partial to the Caprese Gnocchi, but right now the crackers with the Dill Pickle Chicken Salad are a VERY close second.

There’s always something a little funny about the first day of fall in New Orleans. The calendar says fall, but the weather usually has other plans.

But September 22 is officially the first day of fall, and that felt like a good enough reason for us to bring soup back.

When we started talking about what soup should come first, Chicken & Sausage Gumbo felt like the obvious answer. If we’re kicking off soup season in New Orleans, it only felt right to start with a classic.

And alongside it, we’re trying something new: Sweet Potato Bisque. Something a little cozy and fall-ish to help get us in the spirit, even if it’s still plenty warm outside. Although I did see something about a cool front on the news, so maybe there’s hope.

We have lots of ideas for soups this year, but we want to hear yours too. What did we make last year that you loved? What should we bring back? And what new soups would you love to see us make?

We’ll be taking notes for the weeks ahead.

Our September 22 menu is live, and it just so happens that September 22 is also the first day of fall.

Which feels like pretty perfect timing because… soup is back.

We’re easing into fall this week with Chicken & Sausage Gumbo and Sweet Potato Bisque, along with plums, Brussels sprouts, pecans, pomegranate, butternut squash and some of those flavors that make it feel like the season is starting to change.

Even if New Orleans hasn’t gotten the weather memo yet.

Here’s to the start of fall, the return of soup, and hopefully some cooler days ahead.

September 22 menu is now live!

You might have noticed things are looking a little different around here.

Over the past few months, we’ve had the chance to work with Jen Davis | Brand & Web Design | Hello June Creative® on a whole new look for Alexander’s Meals, and it has been so much fun watching them take everything we are and turn it into a brand that finally feels like us.

At the heart of our new branding is the artichoke. We wanted something that was obviously connected to food, but also meant a little more. An artichoke is all about pulling back the layers to get to the heart, and that felt pretty perfect for Alexander’s Meals. Because at the heart of all of this is really good food, made by real people, for families.

Hello June really helped us think through who we are, what makes Alexander’s Meals different and how we wanted that to come across visually. Seeing it all come together has made me realize just how much we’ve grown since we started.

And now it’s time for the next piece: a brand new website!

A little fun fact, I built our current website myself. Considering I am VERY much not a website developer, I’m actually pretty proud of what I created. I figured it out as I went, changed it about a million times, and somehow it has grown right alongside our business.

But Alexander’s Meals has grown a lot, and it finally feels like time for our website to grow up a little too.

So while I’ll always have a soft spot for the website I built from scratch, I am very ready to hand this one over to the professionals.

New branding is here. A new website is coming soon. Same food, same family and the same heart behind everything we do.

We can’t wait to show you what’s next.

Fresh, housemade gnocchi is probably not something you expect to heat up at home on a random weekday, but that’s exactly the kind of thing we love being able to put on our menu.

And this one really comes down to Chef Taylor.

Taylor worked at Lilette for over a decade, and when he told me gnocchi was probably the dish he made more than anything else while he was there, there was really no going back. I LOVE gnocchi, so obviously my first thought was that we needed to make it as much as possible.

Taylor has also officially been with us for a year now, and it’s hard to imagine Alexander’s Meals without him. So much of what we’re able to do every week is because of the experience, talent and care he brings to our kitchen. We truly couldn’t do this without him.

So thank you, Taylor, for everything you do for us and for all of you every week. And selfishly, thank you for being the reason we get to enjoy housemade gnocchi on a regular basis.

This week it’s Caprese Gnocchi: pan roasted housemade gnocchi with blistered cherry tomatoes, mozzarella, basil, pancetta, garlic butter, Parmesan and balsamic glaze.

Not exactly your average heat-it-up-at-home weekday dinner. And that’s kind of the point.

Can we give eggplant a little more credit?

It’s full of fiber, antioxidants and nutrients, naturally low in calories, and that beautiful purple skin is actually where some of its most powerful antioxidants are found.

But our favorite thing about eggplant? It can be really, really tasty!

This week’s Eggplant Hummus is creamy hummus topped with eggplant, marinara, fresh basil, chili oil + crispy chickpeas, served with pita for scooping up every bit.

Proof that something can be packed with vegetables, good for you AND something you actually look forward to eating.

We hope everyone is enjoying their meals from yesterday’s deliveries! We hope your fridge is stocked with breakfasts, lunches, dinners, desserts and snacks to make the rest of the week a little easier.

Check out our stories to see our very enthusiastic delivery helper from yesterday. 😂 She waved at every single house we stopped at, whether anyone came outside or not. Even baby Alexander was along for the ride!

Good food, lots of waving and the whole family pitching in. Truly a family business around here.
