Scrumptious Stromboli

Stouffer’s has some new offerings and they are definitely noteworthy. The Italian Style Supreme Stromboli in their Corner Bistro line, for instance. Here is a microwave sandwich meal with real appeal. It is meaty with chunks of sausage and pepperoni --not measly thin slivers. Red and green pepper pieces and a piquant sauce make this just right. The bread is thick with an herb crust and the cheese inside—nice and gooey mozzarella. This is a very flavorful treat, sort of a high end Hot Pocket.

You'll find it in the frozen food section.

Partially Stuffed

Winter Holidays and Winter weather mean it is the perfect time to prepare homey, comforting dishes like stuffing. The basic ingredient is bread but it is the seasoning that really makes it stuffing. Stove Top is pretty much synonymous with stuffing and is one of the easiest dishes to prepare right out of the box.

But suppose you are in the mood for stuffing and you only need a serving for one person? Stove Top has come out with individual -sized microwaveable containers of stuffing so that in about 45 seconds you can have tasty Corn Bread or Chicken stuffing. The size is right and the consensus is that the taste is very good—just like boxed Stove Top stuffing except you can take it and make it anywhere. You can eat it as it is or add other ingredients such as cheese, dried cranberries, or a bit of your favorite vegetable. Have it as a snack or as a side dish. It also makes a nice companion to single-serve soup.

One respondent said she wishes she had the single-serving stuffing when she was away in college. It would have been a nice change from Ramen noodles
