Dinner By Amy

April 21, 2010 by Julie 24 Comments

Tonight Ryan and I enjoyed a dinner prepared by our friend Amy.

Amy's Goodies

I entered a contest to select the new slogan for Amy’s products. Though my slogan apparently wasn’t up to snuff, I did get a consolation prize in the form of a coupon booklet.

I have never tried any of Amy’s frozen meals, mainly because I prefer to cook my own food and they’re pretty pricey, but since I had some coupons to use, I picked up a couple Amy’s frozen entrée’s at the grocery store on Monday night.

Since both Ryan and I wanted one of the black bean and vegetable enchiladas, I knew we’d need more than one ‘chilada each for dinner to feel satisfied.

With the enchiladas, we enjoyed a cup of Amy’s black bean vegetable soup and a side of roasted cauliflower.

Enchilada

My Plate

This meal was like a fiesta on a plate!

Dinner is Served

At first bite, I was worried the enchiladas were going to be too spicy. I am such a baby with spicy food!

Peek Inside

Luckily, as I continued eating, the initial spice-shock wore off a bit but unfortunately the enchiladas lacked a bit in the flavor department.

I ate every bite, but wasn’t blown away by this dish in the least. Ryan agreed and was even less of a fan of the enchiladas than I was. Oh well! You can’t win ’em all!  

Fortunately the black bean soup and roasted cauliflower were tasty.

Do you like Amy’s frozen meals or soups? Any favorites?  

Stay tuned for my tips for new runners post in the morning! 🙂

    I like the burritos and soups but that’s all I’ve tried. I’m not huge on frozen meals like that normally so I have never had the desire to try them.

    My favorite Amy’s product is the Lentil Vegetable Soup. It’s delish. I try not to eat too many processed foods though.

    Hahaha that’s so weird – I cooked cauliflower today (although it probably wasn’t as tasty as yours – I have a post coming up about it tomorrow!) 🙂

    I like some of Amy’s products but don’t buy them often because they’re so stinkin’ expensive! My favorite is the low-fat split pea soup…yumm! I actually have a can right now in my pantry…perhaps I will eat it for lunch tomorrow!

    […] was one heck of a tasty frozen entree. It was about 10,000 time tastier than the Amy’s enchiladas we had for dinner last […]
