Are the chicken pot pies and chicken soup a seasonal thing? I went to church tonight for the first time in a bit and haven't seen either the last few trips. Our church has only been open about a year now.

I did pick up some "ravioli lasagna" out of the prepped food area which was delicious and should give me and my Mrs. two more meals.

UPS delivered my Midea 7CuFt chest freezer today.

The box had a few dings here and there, but there was an inch or so of foam panels all around it, with the unit in a plastic bag. There were zero scratches, dings or dents on the whole thing. Put the casters on, wiped out the inside and let the plasticky smell air out, waited three hours and just turned it on with a bowl of water in it.

Should be nice and frozen in the morning.

My local Costco had a few of these in the store, very tempting.

Yes to the first part.

Also :sickos: to the second part. Generally speaking those prepared meals give us like 6 portions, which ends up as dinner for two and leftovers for me for 4 more meals. I absolutely love it. I like the lasagna, ravioli lasagna, and the enchilada bake or enchiladas. Just a wonderful homogenized heat and eat meal, perfect for those depression or work/project meals when cooking and eating is a burden.

Uhhh what? This sounds amazing. Why is this the first i'm hearing about something like this? A lasagna made out of ravioli? That sounds dangerous.

It's super dangerous. They're giant ravioli in a sauce and cheese that are very mild and you won't notice how many you eat until it's too late.

The ravioli lasagna is pretty good. I'm a fan.

I love the meatloaf and mashed potatoes. Very hearty!

I've yet to try the chicken alfredo because it looks like it's 14,000 calories per serving.

Stuffed peppers are just all right. Not bad, not great.

The quinoa salad is a pass; pretty bland.

Asian wraps are excellent.

Pinwheel sandwiches are okay, but my wife loves them so we get them often.

The tortellini salad (with strips of salami and whatnot) is excellent, but also dangerous calorie-wise.

I guess if you're worried about calories, you really shouldn't be getting any of those prepared meals.

I bought the $80 toaster oven. I christened it today with a pop tart because I left work at 8pm last night, and had to be back at 5am. I now no longer need a toaster.

We need a new toaster as well, I assume it is a very good fancy toaster??

I got the mandolin on a whim because we never actually had one before, and used it to make cole slaw and saurkraut. A+ did the slicing without me losing any flesh. :3:

I should do this as well, but I used any pieces that were too big for coleslaw but too small to use with the guard as bottom chunks for the kraut.

It has 10 settings, and works as a mini broiler so I'm down with it.

Also on the topic of grab & go stuff. The mac was fine. Ravioli lasagna is very good. As are the street tacos. And I didn't like the asian wraps. They're fine, just not my taste, the sauce is kinda bland for a sweet & sour, and that's really all the flavor. Aside from some carrot and I think cabbage?

Street tacos are surprisingly good. The meatloaf is actually great (hard to mess up), but we warned: the mashed taters seem like they are so full of butter and/or other dairy products that each spoonful is like a day's worth of calories.

Nevermore.

These are really good burgers!

I'll also second the recommendation for the Hint brand flavored water. I got the pack of 15 bottles (watermelon, blackberry and pineapple flavors) a few days ago, and have tried the watermelon and pineapple flavors so far. I love the watermelon flavor, it's very refreshing. I also tried the pineapple flavor, not thinking I would care for it at all, because I'm not a huge fan of pineapple. However, it's delicious too, because it doesn't have an overpowering pineapple flavor.

Thats how you make good mashed potatoes though? Duck fat and butter. Lots of it.

I think that's why they are so good. People like to say "well I just have water at home" but it's like a perfect flavor that can't really be replicated. The water is really clean and you get a slight taste of flavor, but nothing overpowering like many other flavored waters. Even if you were to make it at home, it would taste stronger. You'd have to do something like leave pineapple in empty bottles for a few days, drain them and then put really clean water into those bottles to even come close to replicating the taste.

I’ve been tempted but I guess I’ll try the ravioli lasagna. I’ve also never had meatloaf so I might as well try Costco’s.

I do like Sam’s Club enchiladas but I hate Walmart/Walmart owned companies. So I’d hope Costco’s dinners are good too.
