Michelina's fettucine alfredo : review

Supper tonite was a quick and dirty affair - frozen fettucine alfredo with chicken and broccoli. Michelina's is one of the cheapest brands and I had a coupon as well, so it won the last time I went frozen food shopping.

Honestly, it wasn't bad. It had lots of pepper. The chicken bits were decidedly lacking - they tasted like the fake chicken you get in fast food nuggets - but the noodles did come o fileId:3096224744220333;size:inter; ut pretty well and the broccoli was not mushy.

Of course, as with most frozen food, you pass up healthy food for quick and easy food. The package contained about a cup of noodles and sauce which had 310 calories, 11 grams of fat and a good bit of sodium (680 mg). But for $1.25, I can't complain.

I used to fake out my kids by serving them spaghettie with a little butter and parmesan cheese - should have seen their faces the first time they ordered it in a restaraunt!

Joy - it definately wasn't gross, but I think I'll go back to Stouffers which tastes better.

Since you don't have cholestorol problems (yet) it sounds like a good deal for you. But I agree Stauffers is deffinitely a better choice. Hope you had a great week up north!
