Kroger Skillet Meals: This BzzAgent Reviews

As a BzzAgent I have the opportunity to try new things and I was glad to hear I was selected to review Kroger Skillet Meals. This was a great BzzAgent campaign as I received coupons for Kroger Skillet Meals, Kroger garlic bread and a bag of Fresh Express salad. A COMPLETE MEAL!

Choosing which Kroger garlic bread and Fresh Express salad proved to be easy tasks but with so many flavors of Kroger Skillet Meals to choose from, well, that proved to be quite the challenge. My local grocer carried the Tuscan Style Penne, Shrimp Lo Mein, Chicken Fajitas and Sausage Rigatoni. I settled on the Shrimp Lo Mein.

I'd love to say the Three Boys and an Old Lady family loved it, but *sigh* we didn't. There were probably about 6 teeny, weeny shrimp and quite honestly the dish took a long time to prepare. You have to thaw the sauce in one cup, heat the noodles up in another, do this, do that, blah, blah, blah-blah, blah-blah. Then on top of all that, the noodles had an odd texture and the sauce was flavorless.

I'm a firm believer of the whole "Try It Once to say you tried it, try it again to say if you like it or not". Thank goodness we tried it again. Well, at least another variety of Kroger Skillet Meals at least. My family loved the Tuscan Style Penne. Definitely a huge time saver and pretty tasty. We will definitely purchase this variety again!

I also loved the Fresh Express Salad Kits. There are tons of varieties and there's always just enough leftover for lunch the following day. Coupled with the Kroger Garlic Bread, which was a winner in the Three Boys and an Old Lady household as well. The kids really loved the garlic bread and we've had it couple of times since first trying it. What a time saver!

I'd love to try the Kroger Skillet Meals Chicken Fajitas variety and have asked my local store manager to order. So, if you're looking for a quick meal and there's a Kroger near you, but sure to give Kroger Skillet Meals a try and while you're there, why not make it a meal and pick up a bag of Fresh Express Salad and some Kroger Garlic Bread.

Disclosure: I'm a BzzAgent and received coupons for free product to try and share.

Jeepers! It's January Hop

Happy New Year! What better way to kick off the new year than with a giveaway! I am so excited to join The Mommy Island, The Kids Did It and 90+ other fab blogs in the first big giveaway hop of 2018! Here’s your chance to start the new year off with a win. One lucky Three Boys and an Old Lady blog reader will receive a $15 Walmart eGift card. $10 may not seem like a lot but it’s enough to stock up on some last minute Christmas clearance gifts. Trust me. I bought a 6’ Christmas tree WITH lights, 2 animal massagers, 3 Jelly Belly BeanBoozled Jelly Beans Mystery Bean Dispenser, Christmas cards and wrapping paper less than $20 during an after Christmas Walmart shopping trip. I was searching for some cough syrup when my friend’s kid spotted the Jelly Belly BeanBoozled Jelly Beans Mystery Bean Dispenser on sale for 50 cents. What a steal! The regular price is $10 so to find them on sale for 50 cents was a deal. We cleared the shelves. A few rows down we spotted some anima

Maple and Brown Sugar Air Fryer Bacon

I've been raving about my Instant Pot but now I have a new favorite... the Air Fryer. O M G This thing is amazing! I don't know why I was so late to the Air Fryer craze but I am so glad I am finally onboard. I've been talking about getting one and then after my aunt posted pics of her new air fryer, that was it off to Best Buy I went. I wasn't sure how big of a unit I would need but I figured the 2.5 liter would suffice. I chose the Chefman Express. It was priced on the shelves for $85 but online for $75.99 and my local store matched the price AND I had my Swagbucks Best Buy QR code so I got 500 SBs + 2 SBs for every dollar spent so that's another 170 SBs. So, after discounts, my air fryer ended up costing me less than the sale price. Woohoo! There were some fancy ones on the shelves with digital display but after checking the reviews I figured since I don't fry much this model would suffice. When I think of fried foods, I think

A Pit Stop at Sho Nuff Hot Tamales in Greenville, Mississippi

My cousin and I were driving along and our tummies were rumbling as we crossed the Mississippi state line on US-82. We didn't really have any particular dish in mind for lunch but we started seeing signs saying "Hot Tamales". "Hot Tamales", my Philly cousin asked. "Yep", I replied nonchalantly. "I remember reading something about hot tamales being a big thing here in the Delta." We kept driving and finally decided we would have to try these famous Mississippi Delta hot tamales. Now to decide which one. There were literally dozens of tamale spots. We happened upon a restaurant called Sho-Nuff and decided it was the one. We parked and entered the large, delightfully decorated restaurant. The wall was plastered with local and national awards in recognition of those hot tamales. There was a sign touting Sho-Nuff as the winner of the local newspaper's favorite restaurant award and 3rd place winner in the annual Delta Hot Ta
