I was a bit uneasy at the thought of meal coming from a box…especially from a restaurant that I really like. The meal was easy to put together – just add butter, milk, and chicken! I found that it was easier for me to cut and start cooking the chicken first, but I am sure you will find your method once you try this dinner kit out. I have to say I was really impressed by the taste. The meal tasted like it came from the restaurant! It was delicious. The box was a perfect portion for me and the hubby. We had a little bit of chicken and sauce leftover, but the noodles were gone. I would suggest buying at least two kits and a box of standby noodles if you planned to make this for a family of four.
The dinner kits include everything needed to create a high-quality meal in one box including premium ingredients such as such as vine-ripened tomatoes, select cooking wines, specialty herbs and 100% semolina pasta. Varieties of Romano’s Macaroni Grill Restaurant Favorites dinner kits include Garlic & Herb Chicken Penne, Creamy Basil Parmesan Chicken & Pasta, Chicken Alfredo with Linguine and Chicken Marsala with Linguine.

• sample of the Creamy Basil Parmesan Chicken Pasta

Well my biggest struggle would probably be the leftovers. I am often only cooking for one, which means lots of leftovers, since most recipes are for 4-6. And I'm not usually that big on leftovers!

My biggest dilema is coming up with different dinner ideas (recipes) that everyone will like. My husband loves pasta, but hates veggies. I have one daughter who will eat anything (as will I) and one daughter who is a picky eater.

My biggest problem is stretching the food! I live alone so I usually cook for me, but I have a large family that live close so a lot of times I suddenly need to feed 6! If I kept these dinners on hand along with precooked chicken in the freezer I could whip up a great dinner for all in a half hour! Thanks for the chance!
My biggest problem is coming up with what to make for dinner. Now especially with the warmer weather and our appetites have gone down but you still have to eat something.

I would say that my biggest struggle is that I am most often cooking for just me! I love leftovers, but sometimes I just don't feel like having that much of something. Therefore, trying to reduce some recipes can be a little tricky!

I'm really, really impatient so making food (especially from scratch) totally gets on my nerves. I use a lot of boxed meals, of course.
oh groan… my biggest struggle is probably tearing myself away from other activities (blogging…) in time to make sure everything necessary for dinner is thawed and/or purchased before I start cooking…
sad, but true!
