New Edy's Flavors


Ice cream is probably one of my biggest weaknesses. I am so grateful that there are a ton of lower-calorie, lower-fat alternatives. Edy's is one of my favorites so I was excited to see they are offering several new flavors. They are offering German Chocolate Cake Spectacular, Take the Cake, and Three Stripes You're Out. They also have Sunny Salted Caramel Pretzel but I have yet to find that anywhere.

Marie Callender - who knew?


I love, love, love Marie Callender. Unfortunately it's not something I thought I could have aona regular basis due to the high calorie content. Well imagine my surprise when I run across this Three Meat and Four Cheese Lasagna which claims to have only 300 calories per serving in Walmart. I believe I paid $2.50 for the meal. It's the perfect size for splitting with someone or saving some for later. The great thing is a serving is one cup. Can you imagine a frozen meal where the calories are actually reasonable? Well it's here people! And it is so yummy! The directions say to nuke it for approximately six minutes but I think my microwave is headed for the appliance graveyard in the sky so I threw it in there for about six minutes and baked it for about 10. The top was baked nicely and boy oh boy was this good! Not too salty like a lot of meals can be and to be honest although it has italian sausage, pepperoni and beef, I only tasted the sausage. I'm not a fan of eating frozen meals on a regular basis but I think they're good to have in a pinch or if you have a hankering for some pasta and don't want the fat and calories if a dish from a restaurant. Have you tried it?
