3 Kids and Us Tested and Approved
Dinnertime in our house is often a last minute scrambling to fix up something that is quick, easy, tastes good, and semi-healthy. Add in three young children in the house and a tight budget, we just don’t have the luxury of dining out very often. Then we heard the news that Romano’s Macaroni Grill was taking their restaurant favorites to the grocery store to offer families like my own an affordable way to enjoy restaurant quality meals.
We often turn to boxed dinner kits because they provide most of the ingredients and are ready in less than 30 minutes. This is exactly what the Creamy Basil variety did! What I liked most about this particular dinner kit is all of the ingredients provided to create a unique and home-cooked flavor. Inside we found seasoning, grated cheese, sun-dried tomatoes, linguine pasta and a creamy sauce pouch all individually packaged. This is exactly what I’ve been suggesting to companies for years. I love the ability to use the ingredients that will fit our families personal taste preferences without having to dig them out of one combined flavor packet.
Mom Improvements
Priced around $6.00 a box I was hoping they would offer more food for the money. I realized very quickly that one box would not feed a hungry family of five and ended up sending my husband to the grocery store to grab an extra box. I’d like to see these dinner kits provide more pasta to accommodate a larger family with a value size somewhere between the cost of one box and two. The packaging does say that it makes five 1-cup servings, but we find those portions to be on the small side.

These days, the biggest struggle is coming in under a budget while still having good quality food. The cheap stuff, unfortunately, is rarely as nutritious. It can be hard to find that balance.

by biggest struggle is just being so disorganized & not prepared.
I am the day-care person for my grandkids. Biggest problem is that whatever my grandson likes to eat, my granddaughter wouldn’t touch if she was starving. Oh, and visa versa, too. At least they both like vegetables–just not the same ones.

Making affordable but fresh and healthy food is so hard. Why are organic and all-natural things more expensive? Kinda makes me sad – if someone doesn’t have enough money, then these things might be out of their reach.
My biggest struggle is always time – everyone is starving and I get home from work with little time before dinner.
My biggest struggle is preparing something healthy that my “picky eater” will also want. Thanks for the giveaway!

my biggest struggle is trying to find recipes that are both fast and easy, but also nutritious at the same time.
My problem with fixing dinner is that none of us like the same meat. My Hubby won’t eat just chicken or pork, my daughter won’t eat pork and I don’t like hamburger. I have finally got Hubby eating chicken if I cut it up small and put it in something. The good thing is that we all love pasta.

The only struggle I might have is not having one or two ingredients home that I need.
Oh My Gosh, do we struggle with getting meals to the table! Every night is a challenge to provide something healthy that everyone will eat. My biggest problem is the time crunch. We are often out until 7:30 at night and then we come home starving but without dinner ready. I have found that the slow cooker is a great solution to these late nights. I love Macaroni Grill and I’d like to try these entrees. Thanks for the chance!
I think my greatest struggle is keeping the menu varied. I try to mix it up as much as possible, but I seem to run out of ideas quickly. These meals use chicken and pasta (both of which we eat a lot of), but manage to make into 4 different meals! Great! Thanks.
Making nutritious, quick meals that the family loves is a huge issue for me. Thanks for the chance.

The biggest struggle when cooking for the family is trying to find time to get everyone together all at once.
My biggest struggle with getting the family dinner ready is making sure all the dishes are cooked and hot and ready to serve at the same time! Is the roast cooked through and hot? Are the mashed potatoes smooth with no lumps and hot and buttery? Are the brussel sprouts hot enough to serve so they won’t be cold by the time we eat? Thank you for the contest!

Sport practices because they are all at different times.
Quick and healthy – something everyone will like. Is that possible?
My struggle is making a quick dinner, I work two jobs
Wooo Hooo Make me a winner!
My biggest challenge besides deciding what to make is the timing issue as my husband doesn’t always have regular working hours.
My biggest struggle is that I don’t plan ahead of time. I end up with my head in the fridge and 5PM perplexed about what to make.
Creating the daily menu is my biggest challenge. Day after day after day…

I’m stuck in a rut preparing the same old foods every week. Need to change it up.
Fresh veggies. Fortunately, around downtown during the summer they have farmers markets at noon, so I can pick some up during work hours.
I live with myself so my biggest struggle is making meals that don’t make too many leftovers so that I don’t have to waste food, or so I don’t have to eat the same meal for a week to get rid of it all.
The biggest struggle for me is just coming up with ideas of what to have for dinner.

My biggest struggle is finding the time to cook after a long day at work
Would love to win this yummy stuff!
I’m not good at thinking ahead. It’s usually 5:50 pm and I’m just starting to scrounge around. I forget to thaw the meat, and we might not even have anything to make.

Pick me
the biggest struggle is simply time. We, hubby and me, both work long hours and the last thing either of us want to do when we get home is cook.
Having enough to time to do a proper job of preparing dinner is usually my biggest struggle.
My biggest struggle is finding ways to get fresh fruits and vegetables into our meals…ones my fiance will like.
My biggest problem is pleasing picky eaters.
My biggest struggle is that I HATE cooking. I’d love if the food could just prepare and cook itself.
Try to guess what my toddler likes today – what he might have gone ga ga over last week maybe he hates this week…!
I would love the chance to win, thanks.
I struggle with preparing dinner for my family because of lack of time. It seems I’m always running late because I can never get out the door at work when I’m suppose to.

We are a family of 6 so my biggest challenge is buying quick fix foods because the boxed dinners are always for 4 people or less and the family sized frozen dinners are usually packaged for 4 also. The party sizes are too large for us because they are for 8-12 people They should make a large family size in these products
biggest struggle is making sometihng that everyone wants to eat!!

My biggest struggle is finding a meal that my whole family likes. I have a whole family of picky eaters and it is a real challenge to put together a meal that they will all eat.
The kids are at an age where they are just beginning to use flatware on their own – particularly, the spoon. However, some foods, such as spaghetti, become a challenge just to complete the ‘delivery’ process!

My biggest struggle is making good and nutritious meals in a short amount of time.
The biggest obstacle is preparing dinner is always the vegetable.
Dealing with various picky eaters and bored of the same meals.
The biggest struggle is actually getting IN the kitchen.. With a pre-K and baby it seems one of them needs me so I can’t be in the kitchen more than five minutes at a time…
Besides getting everyone AND the food all to the table at the same time?? Coming up with something “new” AND “acceptable” to everyone AT the table, without feeling like I’m running a pick-and-choose buffet line…
Having enough time is my struggle.
My biggest problem with dinner–is feeding everyone–I have 3 teens–that all have busy schedules–so Friday I might have all 3 out at dinner time–and Monday I might have all 3 in and 2 boyfriends and a best friend –now when I was planning on feeding 5 I have to feed 8.
I have a weekly calendar on the fridge–with everyone’s schedule–and no one ever seems to stick to it.
Our biggest struggle is finding one recipe that the whole family will enjoy!

My biggest struggle is trying to get everyone to eat at the same time. Almost veryones schedule is different but I try to squeeze in some family time and eat dinner together.
The biggest struggle for me is coming up with new ideas… I have the same old things I cook all the time… I look at recipes but still tend to go back to the old favorites… would love to just have a batch of new favorites fall in my lap!

My biggest struggle is just planning a time where we can all eat together. Some times of the year are easier than others. But when it comes to soccer season, it helps if I plan ahead so that I can time meals to fall in between practice times.
love macaroni grill.
We have to drive one hundred miles one way to eat a Romano’s macaroni Grill; that’s in Jackson, Ms. would love to have some of the goodies were great; many thanks SW
The biggest struggle is to cook something that everyone likes that is also healthy.
my biggest struggle with making dinner has been trying to find the time to cook. It always seems easier just to do take out. Yet i know it’s not as healthy for my family.
