Spaghetti and Meatballs for Four--For Two

| | Comments (0)

Fresh Direct has introduced a lot more prepared foods, now organized as full meals for two or four (with two different categories, Fast Meals and Sunday Dinners, which are basically Cheap and Expensive, respectively). So I ordered the meatball dinner for four and stretched it into a week of meals for Todd and I (August is still on the pureed stuff). It came with spaghetti (which heated up amazingly well and was really quite good), meatballs, ciabatta rolls and salad.

Night 1 was the spaghetti and meatballs with some of the salad. Night 2, open-faced meatball sandwiches on the ciabatta rolls with provolone melted over the top. Night 3 I started adding other ingredients, a couple slices each turkey, ham and Swiss, sliced hard-boiled egg and dressing for a chef's salad. Night 4, the rest of the pasta tossed with some homemade pesto. We still have a couple of rolls left, but that pretty much used up the whole meal. At $22 and maybe another $5 for other ingredients, it was still cheaper than takeout. And the convenience was worth it to me.
