My husband and I work very hard to ensure that on most nights, we have a home cooked meal.  But you know that I don’t like to cook.  And with two kiddos to look after, there are some nights when I get a little lazy and resort to take out or something that can be prepared in just a few minutes.

Banquet, a company that has been creating home-style frozen dinner meals for over 50 years, is giving away over $1 million worth of redeemable cash prizes through the month of April.  Just look for Banquet frozen-dinner meals with the “Thanks a Million” logo on the box.  Each of these boxes will contain a special game piece and your chance at one of 16,000 prizes worth $10 to $100,000 or a Banquet coupon.  This is the company’s way of saying “Thanks a Million” to their loyal customers.

I had not heard of Banquet meals until just recently, so we picked a few up to try them.  The varieties are typical American meals like Macaroni & Cheese, Chicken Fingers, and Spaghetti & Meatballs for kids, and Sweet and Sour Chicken, Turkey and Gravy, and Lasagna.  They’re quick and easy to make and taste good.  The one suggestion I would make is that I’d love to see the company come out with lower sodium versions.

For information, just visit their site.

I wrote this review while participating in a blog campaign by Mom Central on behalf of Banquet and received a sample to facilitate my candid review. Mom Central sent me a gift card to thank me for taking the time to participate.”
