Macaroni Grill Frozen Entrees and a Giveaway!

CONTEST CLOSED:

Winner is: Kim from Stirring the Pot! Congrats!!

In my dream world, I have a new, delicious dinner on the table every night. And it always tastes good. And the house is clean, the laundry is done, and all of my emails are answered. But I don't live in that dream world, unfortunately. And as much as I'd love to have dinner on the table every single night, let's be honest - that just doesn't happen. Even on a good week, I don't think I make dinner more than 4 or 5 nights.
And as much as I wish I had homemade food for my family every night, I will also admit that sometimes, frozen dishes make it onto our table. My husband is actually a fan of frozen pizza, so we are known to visit the frozen section at the grocery store from time to time. Well, lucky me - Macaroni Grill has a new frozen line out and I was sent some to sample, courtesy of Macaroni Grill and My Blog Spark. And lucky you - you have a chance to win some, too!!

First of all - the frozen entree. Sometimes, I wish dinner was always this easy. Pour it in a skillet, add a little bit of milk, and 15 minutes later, dinner is done. And it was actually pretty good! I won't say it's as good as going to an actual Macaroni Grill and getting an entree, but this is so much easier and cheaper! We tried the Basil Parmesan Chicken and I was actually impressed with how creamy it was.
And now it's your turn to try - here's how you can win your own Macaroni Grill Frozen Entree, a serving plate, and tongs:

1 - Visit the Macaroni Grill website, then come back here and tell me what flavor sounds the best to you. (And hey - there's a coupon there for $1.50 off a frozen entree, so you can try it out for pretty cheap even if you don't win!!)

2 - Follow Taste and Tell. You can do this by following through Blogger's friend connect or through an RSS feed. If you already subscribe, just let me know.

3 - Become a fan of Taste and Tell on Facebook. It's easy - just click here and hit "like"!
Please note that all entrants must be at least 18 years old.

Contest ends August 16th at 11:59 MDT. The winner will be chosen randomly and announced on August 17th.

*Disclaimer: A complimentary sample of this product, along with information and the prize pack, was provided courtesy of Macaroni Grill through My Blog Spark. No other form of compensation was received and opinions are all my own.

  1. Sometimes I make shortcut dinners too. I think I would probably chose the Chicken Florentine because I love spinach.
