My food is making me uncomfortable.

I return! Dallas was great. Had a fantastic time. I only ate one microwaveable thing while I was there. Huzzah Breakfast Burritos! I didn't take any pictures because I was lazy and hungry. But now that I am back we've got a big entry for today because I was a fatty and ate two meals today (one at two and one at five. What?! They were tiny. And I was hungry!). So lets jump into the first meal of the week!


Yes. I had a craving for more italian today. "REAL CHEESE" by our favorite Italian Mama. She's going to feed me. And I'm going to like it. Before we move onto the picture, let me justify myself. The batteries in my camera are dying and like to turn my camera off at a moments notice. I have been flipping the batteries around and using some other ones in other devices to get them to work. So some of these pictures may not be the best because I was hurrying before it died for real real on me. And we have 3 meals to cover today.


OH GOD! OK, we all know Michelina's love of red sauce, but no more flashes when I take pictures of this stuff. It looks like my ravioli it is covered in blood. With fresh Italian herbs!

It was really good. I wish there was more. I, of course, used a piece of bread to scoop up all the extra sauce. Cause its so good. Nom.

So after a few more hours of work, my stomach revolted and said, "FEEEEED MEEEE!" I had to listen. Cause then the hunger pains started on. So I dug through the freezer and decided that I would give you guys another Michelina. We gotta save the rest of these for another day, cause they are all too awesome.


This is only going to end in tears. The potatoes have smiley faces guys. SMILEY FACES! Who thought that was a good idea?


5 tiny chicken "fritters"?! Boooo, Mama you suck sometimes. They are just staring at me. And smiling. They think they are so cool those french fries. This picture is a little too dark. Lets throw the flash on and see what they look like.


...!!! Demon French Fries!!!

The chicken fritters are the exact same as the "Chicken Littles." The french fried Smiledemons were ok. I liked to pull a "Animal Cracker" on them. Ya know, eating the smiles off first and then the eyes. Don't act like you dont know what I'm talking about. But still, covering them in ketchup made me feel like a serial killer...

So that was my fatty lunch today. It was pretty decent. Mama delivered. She usually does.

The Boyfriend also wanted to share his lunch today, because he made me jealous.


Sorry for my giant shadow. Battey light was flashing at me. Anywho, here was matt's lunch. It took 9 minutes to microwave. And it smelled SO! GOOD!


The enchilada looks special. For those curious The Boyfriend said it was "Really good." Not just good. Really good. He mmm'd and yum'd and nom'd the entire time. I was jealous. Stupid Smileydemons.

So that is all for today! I hope everyone enjoyed this giant entry. Tomorrow should be fun. Until next time!

Happy Microwaving!

Why Does it Always Look Like Vomit....

Last night The Boyfriend and I made the adventure to Wal-Mart and bought enough lunches to last me till next pay day. So woo-hoo! I got a giant variety! I'm super excited. We've got two more meals for the Steph and Jenny Extravaganza week and then I'm off to Dallas for two days. I might do a filler for the weekend so you guys aren't left completely in the dust. I make no promises. Lets get on with today's lunch!


Yup, we're back to Kashi. They try so hard to make healthy food that tastes good. I mean this thing is LOADED with protein and fiber and lord knows I could do with some of both with all the stuff I'm eating. I was honestly excited about this one. I love coconut and chicken together. I was a little iffy about the lemongrass. I have never had anything that is lemongrass...ed. Hopefully it would not end up like the disaster that was the Mayan Harvest Bakeopolyse *shiver*

The picture doesn't look that bad. Does it? Yeah...yeah it does. Well lets just hope it looks better after it's cooked. It smelled pretty good. I had to take it out halfway and stir it up and it looked pretty much identical to the box art. I was shocked. Then I mixed it up and it kinda lost its appeal. Two and a half more minutes of cooking and Ta Da!


Kashi has a problem with making their food look like vomit. At least I didn't burn this one. It looks pretty similar to the box I guess. It still looks like chunky vomit. Now this wasn't too bad. The lemongrass was really strong and I could taste no coconut at all. The chicken bits tasted really good, as well as the little beans. The broccoli was in a sad over cooked limp state. Fortunately, the carrots in this tasted and had the same constancy of carrots! Huzzah! Kashi can make carrots correctly. The stuff that it is all sitting on had barley any taste of its own, all I could taste was lemongrass. Not that this is a bad thing. If you like lemongrass you'll loooove this. I was just not a big fan. It wasn't awful but it wasn't jump for joy.

I didn't finish it if that says anything. I recommend at least trying it. It does look like chunky vomit but most of it was good and if you like lemongrass you'll loooove this.

The Boyfriend also had lunch and wanted to share what he had.


He really ripped into this box. OMGLEANCUISNEPANINI'S! I was so jealous when I saw him making this. I looooove these guys. They are so delicious. If you have never had them, go. Go now. RUN! RUN TO THE STORE! THEY ARE SO GOOD!

When he was making this is when I decided to take a break to eat. Cause it all smelled so good. The Chicken club is like bacon heaven and as we all know, Bacon is the candy of the meat family. It smelled so good in the microwave.


.....You know on film, this does not look good at all. But do not let this picture fool you. The panini's are so good. The Boyfriend was nice enough to let me eat some of it. He almost didn't let me, but he saw me drooling from my desk. OMGAH Bacon Enlightenment, in my mouth. So so so so good.

Can you guys tell I like these? Yeah. I do. I'm sure we'll come back to these another day. Cause they are my favorite.

That is all for today. I may do another post tonight (we totally bought microwavable deserts P:), but again, I make no promises. Tomorrow is the wrap up of the Jenny and Steph extravaganza week. And then I'm off to Dallas. So till tomorrow...or tonight...next time!

Ugh my burps taste like lemongrass.

The Sky is Falling!!!

Welcome back everyone. So far it looks like we are gaining a couple of watchers, and that is awesome. I'm glad to see everyone is enjoying my frozen adventures. So lets move right to it and take a look at what is for lunch today.


Why its old Mama Michelina. Did anyone else catch the "Let Mama Feed You!" slogan up at the top of the box? Yes Mama Feed meee! I am so hungry and poor! Will I be hungry two hours later? Probably. But hey, its still "food" right? Right guys?

Today's lunch is, "Chicken Littles". What a sweet innocent name for them. It makes me wonder if these are just small baby chicks that were covered in seasoning and then deep fried and frozen for my pleasure. Lets take another look at the presentation on the box. Someone took a lot of time to stack those little, as they are called on the box, "Chicken Fritters" and french fries together so expertly. What confuses me the most is that fork. Who eats "Chicken Fritters" and french fries with a freaking fork. That's ridiculous. Just slop on some ketchup and dive right in, fingers first.

I will say that Michelina is a master of packaging. Trying to rip into this thing was hell. Michelina has a fancy little tab on the side that says "Pull Here!" So you do, and all you get is a little sliver of paper. You try again, a little more paper. Next thing you know you are literally clawing at these things to get to the little treasures.

After much ripped paper I finally reached them. Now the directions had top options for these fellas, 1) Bake, 2) Microwave. And being the trooper I am (and not having enough time on my break to preheat the oven), I decided to just microwave them. The directions also point out to put some paper towels below them, but I am poor and out of paper towels (Come on guys, I am eating 95 cent meals for lunch). So we'll just have to see how they do without the paper towels...


At least its not swimming in marinara sauce. Note the moisture that surrounds them on the plate. I imagine that this was suppose to be taken care of by the paper towels....Now believe it or not, these actually were not as bad as you would think. The "Chicken Littles" were actually very tastey. I wish I could have made a trade for more chicken less french fries. Anyone that has EVER had to deal with frozen french fries...you know what I'm talking about. Floppy constancy but that weird "I might not be a potato" texture on the inside. I did try them without ketchup, and the chickens were ok...the french fries *shiver* they just have a freaky taste to me. So smothering them in ketchup seems to help. But I'm just a ketchup fiend. I eat steak with ketchup on it. I know. I'm awful.

After I sucked down my lunch, my boyfriend decided he was going to try and bake these little guys and see if they were any better. Well he wouldn't try any of mine, which means I couldn't try any of his. But he did artfully arrange them like the box has it and took a lovely picture for us all.


"THEY MUST HAVE USED TINY PLATES!" (please take your time now to scroll up and look at the box art once more...I'll give you a minute.....la la la....you look? Yea. Smallest. Plate. Ever.) That is what I heard screaming from the kitchen while he set this up. I also love how he drenched it in salt. When asked how they were he replied "Good." he's so simple :)

Anywho that is all for today! We are running low on food (Pay Day! So close yet so far!), so I might be eating microwaved food again tonight. If that is the case, you bet your butt you'll be seeing another entry.

Happy Microwaving!
