frozen – going into the oven

 

 

after being in the oven 40 minutes — YUMMY!

open the freezer and see what tj items can be thrown together

 

tonight was an open the freezer and see what kind of tj items i could throw together for dinner 🙂

this is what i dug up:

• bbq chicken teriyaki  over sushi rice
• chicken egg rolls
• shrimp gyoza

 

 

it was all delicious 🙂

spaghettie & mama mancini meatballs

i read a lot of blogs – food, local, shopping, coupons, etc.  one of the blogs i follow (barista kids millburn)  had a contest one day on one of the posts.  i ended up winning and a couple weeks later a cooler with dry ice and 2 packages of MamaMancini meatballs arrived at my door.  one package of sunday sauce and large meatballs and one package of turkey meatballs in sauce.  i cooked up both packages and served over a box of whole wheat spaghetti.  they were just eh — the turkey meatballs had more flavor than the regular ones — and there was barely enough sauce in both packages together to barely coat one box of spaghetti.  the sauce was definitely flavorless…  i wont be buying these — free i’ll take 🙂

 

tj’s confetti rice

we had leftovers tonight — but for a side we cooked up some tj’s confetti rice.  if you shop at tj’s you must try this rice!  delicious!

ikea meatballs

tonight was one of those nights i just needed to get something on the table.  last time we were at ikea i decided to buy a bag of their frozen meatballs and a jar of lingonberry jam.   throw a whole bunch in a microwaveable dish and microwave 4-5 min — boil up some egg noodles and throw in a good size dallop of lingonberry jam == delicious!

one other product i picked up on that visit where these frozen swedish pancakes   These are really good — basically crepes — ive been slathering them with strawberry preserves or nutella!  YUM

CAJUN RICE & SHRIMP ÉTOUFFÉE™

Ive had this box from tastefully simple sitting around for awhile and decided to try it tonight. It was pretty good. The sauce had a little bit of heat – but i’m not sure that i would buy it again!
