Monday’s I like to share something I got this week. We all like to share a good deal, splurge or unique find or fun activity. If you got something awesome (or lame) recently and blogged about it, be sure to leave me a link to the post in the comments! If you want to win something awesome, enter MOMday Morning!
After at trip to Sam’s Club one shelf in my fridge looks like this (that lame short shelf that nothing fits on): 
You all know I’m not “blessed in the kitchen” (Hot Hubby’s words), so I need all the help I can get when it comes to dinner time. I’ve found a marriage life saver at Sam’s Club – Fresh pre-made dinners!
These suckers are priced by the pound (usually totaling around $8-11), they make them fresh in the back, and feed my family of 4 with leftovers! All I have to do is cover it with foil, pop it in the oven and I have a “homemade” meal. 
This time I got rotisserie chicken enchiladas, 3 cheese stuffed manicotti shells (which I dropped twice before I got to the car!), macaroni and cheese (white cheese & penne pasta) with ham cubes, chicken fettuccini alfredo & pork loin with herbed red potatoes.
Huge hit with the family. See how yummy they look all cooked up…
The meals put smiles on our faces (& plates)…
(Thanks for the hand-me-downs Andrea from BYOG!! They look adorable on Eli.)
Do you make faces/pictures with the food on your kiddos’ plates?
I do.
And I’ve found they are more likely to eat new food if you do something cool with the presentation.
Hasta-la-pasta…
…as in manicotti-stuffed-shells-pasta-from-Sam’s in a big toothy smile.

Why didn’t I think of that whole smiley face on the plate thing?
Eli's Lids says
That’s why I make the big bucks…lol!
Kyla says
Ooh! I like this idea. Too bad our Sam’s went belly up when big bad Costco moved in. LOL

We drive all the way to the Fountain Valley one because I don’t know how to shop anywhere else… It’s totally pathetic. My motto is “If you can’t find it at Sam’s, you don’t need it.” They should pay me.
