I never really had risotto until this year. It was always one of those things I saw on TV or in magazines, but was too lazy to cook it myself. Then, I tasted it made it from scratch one day and fell in love! This stuff is GOOD! So, I went to Trader Joe’s the other day and saw this […]

Arctic Zero Maple Vanilla

The entire pint […]

Blake’s Chicken Pot Pie made with Organic vegetables and a flaky organic crust
Introducing…… THE PERFECT POT PIE. At least it’s perfect in my eyes. I’m a huge fan of pot pies. And to win me over, the crust has to be tasty- for to me the crust = the best part. And this pot pie surely does NOT disappoint. I used the combination method, or the “Express Cooking” that was listed on […]

Meals to Live Grilled White Chicken with Roasted Red Potatoes & Green Beans
One of the things I love is roasted red potatoes. I’d take them over mashed/baked potatoes anyday. Something about the crisp outside and soft inside and great flavor that always wins me over. So I was excited to get the Meals to Live Grilled White Chicken with Roasted Red Potatoes & Green Beans in the mail the other day and […]

Lean Cuisine Four Cheese Pizza
Browsing the grocery store, all of a sudden I thought Pizzzzzaaa. I want some pizza!! So I decided to try something I haven’t tried before, a Lean Cuisine Pizza. I picked this particular one because the ingredients looked pretty good, and there was 20 grams of protein in one of the pizzas. I pulled it out of my freezer around […]

Meals to Live White Chicken Burrito

It had 15 grams of fiber, 17 grams of protein, and only 5 grams of fat (and only 480 mg of sodium, which I don’t think is that bad!) I opened the box, cooked it for about […]

Amy’s Kitchen Macaroni & Cheese
Ok. I’ve heard excellent things about this dish, and I finally tried it. Seeing as the avid Amy’s Kitchen fan I am, I asked myself why have I NOT tried this yet? I’ll reiterate that I’m not a HUGE fan of pasta, but it’s yummy every now and then. So I steamed up some broccoli (my usual veggie of choice), […]

Amy’s Kitchen Indian Mattar Paneer
Amy’s Kitchen has yet to let me down when I have tried their meals in the past, and they certainly didn’t let me down with the Indian Mattar Paneer. Although I have had comments from people about the spicy smell that floods the kitchen (sorry!!), this meal is too good to pass up. The box says it’s “curried peas & […]

Alexia Sweet Potato Julienne Fries
Source First off, HAPPY 2011!!! As part of my last dinner of 2010, last night I had Alexia Sweet Potato Julienne Fries that I got the other day. Now, I’m not really a french fry kind of girl, seeing as I’m not usually crazy about ones that are made at home and I don’t eat fast food. But, these french […]
