Good Earth Dinner Kits: Review and Giveaway


I am not a great cook and never claimed to be, honestly I need all the help I can get in the kitchen.  I thank my mom, who never taught me how to cook because she was (I say was because now that all the kids are grown and out of the house, she has learned to cook some great meals) a terrible cook (with the exception of her AMAZING home made spaghetti sauce).

While I try to cook a few things from scratch, I have to admit that I do have a stash of dinner meal kits in my pantry and I rely on them frequently.  I am always looking to try new and different meals.  Thanks to MyBlogSpark, I had the opportunity to be among the first to try the new Good Earth dry dinner kits.


  100% whole grain, no trans fat, no artificial flavors, no artificial preservatives, no MSG - just add meat and, voila! Dinner is served.

Now available in stores, Good Earth dry dinner kits offer a selection of four delectable meals: Mediterranean Chicken with angel hair pasta, Spicy Citrus Glazed Shrimp with angel hair pasta, Herb Crusted Chicken with mushroom risotto and Tuscan Chicken with penne pasta.  


The Good Earth Dry Dinner Kits are easy to use and are full of great flavors.  While my Mediterranean Chicken did not look as beautiful as it does on the box, it tasted great and my family loved it.  It was a quick and easy meal to make, just follow the simple instructions on the packaging and ta-da 20-30 minutes later you have a great, filling meal.



WIN IT!
My Blog Spark and Good Earth are giving away a prize pack that includes a Good Earth Mediterranean Chicken dry dinner kit, two sets of bamboo flatware, two bamboo dishes, a bamboo utility board and a 100% recyclable grocery tote.
