As we all look for ways to cut back our spending, fine dining is becoming less and less frequent in any families. With busy lives, who really has the time (or energy) to prepare entrées that require hours to prepare? I know I sure don’t and normally opt for easier meals that are healthy and do not take much time to prepare and cook. Plus, since I am not a Chef I often run out of ideas for meals or inspiration to try and cook-up something new.
MyBlogSpark recently sent me a Good Earth Mediterranean Chicken dry dinner kit to try before it hit the shelves in stores!
“With appetizing entrées from Good Earth, dining in is sure to become the new dining out. Enjoy cooking a sophisticated, restaurant-quality meal in the comfort of your own home. Each variety includes vibrant and flavorful sauces along with specialty ingredients like sweet basil, white wine and dried tomatoes. Delicious dinners that allow you to keep a healthy lifestyle without sacrificing taste, Good Earth dry dinner kits are perfect for whipping up a no-fail, five-star cuisine in less than 30 minutes.”
While I will admit I am not much of a “box” cooker, I tend to prepare meals with fresh ingredients or create from family recipes. I was excited to try the Good Earth Mediterranean Chicken kit because I love chicken and it looked pretty simple to prepare. The meal looks scrumptious by the picture on the box. Not to mention, their are 100% whole grain, no trans fat, no artificial flavors, no artificial preservatives, no MSG!
It took about 25 minutes to prepare and 2 dirty pots. That alone was a plus for me because I normally dirty up a lot more for my family meals. Once cooked- it was enough to me me, my husband and our son. (Good thing the other kids were with grandma).
It was really good! I was really shocked that a meal in a box could be really good, but it was! I can’t wait to try the other flavors that are new, especially the Tuscan Chicken with penne pasta.
Coming to stores this June, Good Earth dry dinner kits offer a selection of four delectable meals: Mediterranean Chicken with angel hair pasta, Spicy Citrus Glazed Shrimp with angel hair pasta, Herb Crusted Chicken with mushroom risotto and Tuscan Chicken with penne pasta.
