Save Time with KRAFT Homestyle Macaroni and Cheese: Giveaway

by

Weekdays around my home are extremely hectic.  With both my husband and I working full time outside the home, our time with the kids can be limited.  The last thing we want to do is spend hours in the kitchen preparing dinner when we could be spending quality time with our girls. In order to make our home run smoothly each week, my husband and I make both meal and shopping plans and try to get as much done on the weekends as possible.

If you read this blog, you know that my strengths do not lie in the kitchen.  While I am definitely getting better, I still rely on baking kits and prepared mixes.  Recently, I was able to try the new KRAFT Homestyle Creamy Parmesan Alfredo Macaroni and Cheese and see how it would work with our lifestyle.  I mean, any product that makes me look better in the kitchen is worth a try, right?

The KRAFT Homestyle had a few more steps than a traditional boxed mac and cheese dish, but was still incredibly easy.  Within just a few minutes, you could smell the wonderful aroma and my kids wanted to know what I was cooking!  The dish tasted as good as it looked, too! We added seasoned grilled chicken breasts and had a wonderful meal ready in minutes.

I will definitely be trying more varieties of KRAFT Homestyle Macaroni and Cheese.  If you would like to try them for yourself, take a minute to find out where you can locate them and then print this coupon for $0.50 off any variety of KRAFT Homestyle!  Hurry to print the coupon, they are expected to go fast!!

  4. Our secret is to schedule family activities for week evenings and weekends just as we schedule nonfamily responsibilities.

  6. My secret is giving up time with friends to spend time with those who are the most important.

  13. I don’t have a choice 🙂 I don’t drive, and I don’t work outside the home, and we have never had a babysitter, so I am with my three kids 24 hrs a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year.

  35. We spend more time at home swimming and playing games together instead of leaving the house.

  42. we have most evenings together so i like to get my daughters help in preparing the meals, that seems like a good time to talk about our day

  52. I don’t know if it’s a secret, but I make sure everyone is home for dinner. We have sit-down meals and I like to have the family help in its prep, setting the table and getting the food on. It’s a good time for everyone to catch up on each others activities. Thanks.

  57. My secret making sure that we eat meals together and that the weekends are spent trying to do something creative or fun

  60. I try to get all my work done while everyone else is away to free up us time. I also cook in large batches and freeze some so that frees up time also.

  68. There really are no secrets. We homeschool. If any of our children want to play a sport, they are limited to one per year so things don’t get over-the-top or out-of-control. We do everything together as a family; which, most importantly, means meals. We plan our own school field trips and integrate with other homeschoolers that share our same core beliefs.

  71. Our secret is to find something fun to do when we’re all home on the same day. It can be something simple like board games or something a little bigger like small fairs or roller skating. If it’s a fun activity, no one complains!

  84. I always stick to my motto – Don’t Sweat the Small Stuff…. if you stop worrying about if the house is spotless and all that silly stuff, you will find that you have tons of time to spend with your family 🙂

  94. My hubby and I forage for wild foods to stretch our social security checks. Dandilion buds that are not yet opened are very edible; my husband and I spend alot of time together looking for these.
    I add Dandilion buds to Kraft Macaroni and cheese at least twice a week now, hopefully I’ll find some wild onions to add as well.

  112. We like to grill….that gives more time to visit, keeps us out of the kitchen, and brings the family together outside.

  136. WE’LL HAVE SAndwiches some nights for dinner so we can spend more time out of the kitchen and more time out having fun

  199. get the family involved in dinner! it promotes some time together while preparing and then it makes the process go faster so you have more time to spend together afterwards

  208. I try to prepare as much as possible ahead for supper so I can spend more time with the family.

  211. My secret is to remember what my Mom told me…she said the housework will all ways be around BUT kids are only kids for a while

    thanks bunches

  229. It helps to make certain times of the day “dedicated family time”. Barring emergencies, this time is just for family, no calls, no TV, no computer.

  254. My secret is getting everyone involved in cooking, cleaning and yard work so it goes quickly and we get to spend more time together.

  264. I retired. Now my husband and I have to work around their schedules…. but it has multiplied the time by 2.

  279. Since my family is grown and on their own, the only secret I have is to make certain they feel welcome to stop by and chat at any time, and to try to stop by their homes on a fairly routine basis, always making sure that they are not involved in anything that I would interrupt.

  289. My secret is to involve everyone in daily chores and duties, so you spend more time together and still get your tasks completed 😉 Thank you for the lovely giveaway.
