We went to Walmart this afternoon—well, I guess it was more like evening. I had planned on making Italian chicken and rice, but I started feeling a little rough on the way to Wally World and decided to just grab something easy to throw in the oven.
We settled on meat lasagna and garlic bread. I picked up a Stouffer’s Meat Lasagna and one of the bakery-fresh garlic breads—the kind you just pop in the oven for about ten minutes. That was dinner. The lasagna took an hour and some change to cook, but it was worth the wait. We haven’t had lasagna in forever, so it was a nice change.
The lasagna was $16.48—and it was five pounds, mind you.
The bakery-fresh garlic bread was $2.00.
So for $18.48, four of us had dinner, and there’ll be leftovers for lunch tomorrow.
Not too bad, if you ask me.
What did you have for dinner?

I had baked chicken and green salad, and a baked potato. Hit the spot.
I try to always make an extra pan of lasagna when I make it, and freeze one pan. But we ate the frozen pan, so I will make more next week and freeze it. No matter how hard I try, when I put lasagna together it’s messy, so it’s just better to make extra if I’m making it!

I haven't had time to make homemade lasagna in so long. We are going to have to stick to frozen for the time being.

My kids all love lasagna. None of us are overly fond of the store bought ones, regardless of the brand, because we are spoiled, I think! But I can see opting for an easy dinner when you don’t feel well. It’s good that you had some leftover, for another meal.

@thislittlepennyearns We lost, but it was a stand-in host, so they didn't list what place everyone got lol. But I had fun; lots of laughs! That's why I really go --- the mental break and laughter.
Did you end up eating or getting a shake? I need to pick up some groceries myself. Hopefully, it will be today, but I don't know yet.
