Single Serving Lifestyle

When you don't have someone to cook for or eat with, you find out quickly that cooking for one is neither cheap nor easy. And the end result us inevitably disappointing. Furthermore, creativity is nowhere to be found.

With a serious lack of enthusiasm, and no one to police my eating, I've settled into the warm-plastic-wrapped, sodium and fat filled world of the TV Dinner. Now I'm trying to eat healthy, so out the cornucopia of flavors and textures, I have chosen the Traditional Lasagna with Meat Sauce.

While I wasn't expecting what I saw on the box, I was surprised to see the significant lack of care that went into the actual preparation of my entree. I was going to chalk the ugg factor to its currently uncooked status. Clearly the wrong approach.

Having the sauce all on one side and the noodles on the other proved challanging when there is no room to move things around in the tray. With a grid attack plan in tow, I dive in.

The noodles had a interesting al dente property that I have to admin I enjoyed. I found that I was trying to mask the "flavor'" of the "meat" with noodles and sauce.

At only 7 Grams of fat and 300 Calories, you can easily keep the pounds off by yorking the whole thing up.

I'm gonna stick to Swanson, cause they classify their meals by weight.
