You may remember a week or so ago I shared a post with you about the deal at Safeway, Vons, Pavillions, Randalls, or Tom Thumb? I told you that from 5/21-6/10, when you used your loyalty card, you would receive a FREE Express Salad Blends when you purchase $10 on any participating Bertolli Meals for 2, PF Changs Meals for 2 or Marie Callender’s Bakes.
Knowing that we were going to be going out to dinner for our anniversary, I wanted to have a fun and quick meal at home for just the two of us the night before. So, being the thrifty wife that I am, I took advantage of the offer! I was smart though and took Mr. B to Safeway with me so that he could pick what meal he wanted to try.
He had plenty to choose from but we both agreed on the Firecracker Shrimp from P.F. Chang's. It was an easy choice as it is one of our favorite restaurants. In fact, it was where we went to eat right after we got married 9 years ago! How sentimental are we?!
I gotta tell you, these meals are inexpensive, quick, convenient and, by adding the salad, even pretty healthy!
All I had to do was open the bag and drop it into the skillet.
Cover it over medium high heat, give it a couple of stirs and, and 10 minutes later, dinner done!
Because it was our pre-anniversary dinner, I did bring out some good dishes.
I had purchased these awhile back at the thrift store. They are Johnson Bros and the pattern is "Singapore Bird". Pretty fitting for our Asian meal, don't you think?
I will tell you, in all honesty, this was GOOD! We both loved it! The lightly battered shrimp, carrots, edamame, Yakisoba noodles, all covered in a spicy sauce, was this side of AWESOME!
Not only was it super quick and seriously tasty, it made our weeknight dinner feel so special!
I will be making another trip to Safeway, (or Vons, Pavilions, Randalls, and Tom Thumb) and using my club card again to try the other varieties of, the participating Marie Callender’s Bakes, Bertolli Meals for 2 and PF Changs Meals for 2 and taking advantage of the FREE Fresh Express Salad when I spend $10. I encourage you to give them a try also and let me know what you think!
Looks delish, Kathe.... and my kind of easy.... Cathy
ReplyDeleteI may do this for all our meals Cathy ;-)
DeleteI love having these kinds of meals in the freezer for those last minute dinners. This looks really good and now I want to try this flavor!
ReplyDeleteIt's got just enough heat but not so much you can't enjoy the flavors Diann. We cannot wait to try the Orange Chicken!
DeleteThat looks absolutely yummy. I should try that at some point in the future!
ReplyDeleteMmmm. Shrimp. Hubby is allergic to shell fish so I don't get to eat it often, but man that looks good! And i love your plates.
ReplyDeleteThat is my kind of meal! No work required!

ReplyDeleteAll sound good to me, Kathe. I've had the P.F. Chang's orange chicken and that's pretty good, too.
ReplyDeleteIf you can, check out my post today, will you? A new blogger can use support. Thanks. Susan
Yum! I don't think I've ever tried these meals - but I love the idea of an at-home date night with a super simple meal!!! Thanks so much for sharing, Kathe! :)
