Review & Giveaway: Macaroni Grill Frozen Entrées

MyBlogSpark recently contacted me about the new Macaroni Grill frozen entrées.


Macaroni Grill frozen entrées are quick and easy Italian style dinners for two. They contain not only the pasta, but the meats, and sauce, all in a frozen bag - all you have to do is heat them up on the stove for an easy dinner. They are available in Grilled Chicken Florentine, Basil Parmesan Chicken, Roasted Garlic Shrimp Scampi, and Spicy Italian Sausage Pomodoro varieties.


They sent me the Grilled Chicken Florentine to try out, along with a nice serving bowl and pasta utensil. I did need to add 1/3 cup of milk to the dish (for the sauce), but within 15 minutes, we had a nice dinner ready, and all I had to do was mix it a little once or twice.


The sauce was pretty flavorful, and it tasted pretty good. Now Grilled Chicken Florentine is pretty easy and not too expensive to make - well, for me, anyways, but I wouldn't mind purchasing a package on sale and with a coupon, and having it ready to go in my freezer for those moments where we are hungry but I'm too tired to think about really cooking. (That happens with the late hours we have dinner around here) One observation: if you have hungry husbands, make sure you have big salads and rolls to go along with it, or this won't be a big enough dinner.

You can "like" Macaroni Grill's page on Facebook and follow Macaroni Grill on Twitter to keep up with the latest news from Macaroni Grill, and hear about possible printable coupons in the future. If you visit the website, there's a printable coupon to save $1.50 off your next purchase! (plus one for $1.00 off their dry boxed kits, too)


Win it! Would you like to try out new Romano´s Macaroni Grill frozen entrées and receive a prize pack like mine? To enter, tell us which one of the flavors you'd like to try first!

As always, you can receive extra entries for:

-Subscribing to my feed or following my blog
-Blogging about this giveaway with a link back
-Tweeting about this giveaway (leave the link or @psychotichouse)

That's four (4) possible entries! Giveaway ends August 21st at 11:59 PM PST, and please leave your email address in your entry or have it available in your profile. US only, sorry :( Please note: if you win, you will be receiving the food part of your prize via FedEx with dry ice. If it's arriving when no one is home, you'll need to make arrangements for someone to get your prize out of the heat if it's hot! Good luck everyone!! :)

I received the frozen sample, prize pack, information and additional prize pack to give away from Macaroni Grill through MyBlogSpark.
