BzzAgent: Kroger Skillet Meals
Recently, I had the opportunity to try some free products through BzzAgent - which are available at Kroger stores. I tried a garlic bread, a salad kit, and a skillet meal.
Overall, the salad kit was very convenient. But, I think that there were not nearly enough of the toppings. I had to add extra cheese to mine. Also, I didn't like the dressing that was included, so I had to add my own - but my husband used the entire packet that came with the kit on his salad, so there wouldn't have been enough dressing if we had both used it.
I liked how the garlic bread came cut in half - so I was able to cook just part of it for this meal, and save the other half for another meal. But, the flavor wasn't as strong as I typically like it to be. I did enjoy how much bread we were each able to get with just half of the loaf though.
Overall, the skillet meal was really good. There were a lot of varieties in the store to choose from, however, there was only one that I thought I would like. Lots of the other ones sounded good, but each had 1 or more ingredients in them that I did not like, and I wasn't sure how easy it would be to "pick them out" of the meal. So I chose the Chicken Alfredo skillet meal. Compared to similar products, this one actually had a lot more steps. Usually, you just put the whole bag in the pan and let it cook, covered, for a certain amount of time (while stirring occasionally). However, this one I had to melt butter in the pan first, then add the bag of chicken, broccoli, and noodles plus water, and let that cook. Then I had to add the sauce and cook that. Even with all the extra steps, I still preferred it over other products. The flavor was good and it didn't burn after only cooking for half of the time. I would definitely recommend trying all of these products - and checking out bzzagent.com if you're not already a member!
