Giveaway: Macaroni Grill Meals


The Macaroni Grill is one of my favorite places to eat. I can't recall ever having a bad meal there and have always liked their make your own pasta idea. Now, they have an at-home option for those of us who, um, maybe can't afford to eat out right now.

I'll keep this one simple. I tried the Creamy Basil flavor featured on the right and my husband agreed that it was great! I think you'd like it too, so I have 3 Romano's Macaroni Grill Gift Baskets to give away. Each basket includes a sample of the Creamy Basil Parmesan Chicken Pasta variety, three coupons for you to try the other varieties the next time you visit your local grocer, a colander, serving spoon and cheese grater.

  2. My biggest struggle with making dinner is finding something both my husband and I will eat, along with my 1 year old. I am trying to make one dinner, not two!

  3. My biggest struggle is finding the time to cook something good for my whole family- I have 2 children under 3 years old, so I'm always busy. These meal kits seem like the answer to my prayers!
    Thanks for such a great give-away!

  4. I'm probably the only person who has never been to Macaroni Grill!

    My biggest struggle in preparing dinner for my family? My own laziness! I never like to plan meals much in advance so I'm sometimes left at the last minute trying to figure out what will work.

  5. My biggest struggle is just getting it made! I was always so good about family dinners. We still always sit down to dinner as a family, it's a must, but it seems to be later and later. I still haven't recovered from the birth of my 4th and she's 5 months.

  7. My biggest meal struggle is that I have to plan everything in advance. Every week I dread planning out our meals and making the grocery list so I can ensure we have everything we need. I am glad when it is done, but it feels like a real chore.

  9. Hi! I came over here from Freebies 4 Mom. Great giveaway! My biggest struggle is coming up with new meal ideas that aren't so far out there that hubby wrinkles his nose when I say we are having "different" for dinner.:)

  10. My biggest struggle is finding something that my twin 4 year olds will eat, being tasty and nutritious, as well as finding something for my husband and myself who are watching our weight. Usually that means that it is NOT tasty. I have never been to the macaroni grill either.

  14. I am a very picky eater, with that said, I have never eaten at Macaroni Grill. My husband is a meat eater, and I am the veggie eater. I cook dinner atleast 5 days a week. I think my only struggle is making something everyone will eat and keeping the meals "exciting" and not having the same thing all the time. My hubby will try anything once. So this would be great for him and the girls (they love pasta). As for me, I will stick with my rice cooker. :)

  18. My biggest struggle is occupying my 2 little ones (under 3) while I cook. It's good to have meals that you can set up in the kitchen and then walk away for a few minutes. The struggle is when you are in constant preparation for a solid 20 minutes or so. (mmesser@rocketmail.com)

  30. I LOOOOOOVE their box dinners!! I forget which kind I have had, but I've only tried one and bought it like 4 times because it was amazing!!

    My biggest struggle right now is that our oven thermometer doesn't work and our oven gets way over 550 F in minutes... I don't know exactly how high it gets because the thermometer only goes to 550 F and it broke b/c of the heat!! YIKES!

    So the only thing it's good for right now is roasting veggies :)
