Like most moms, I am always trying to find new ideas to make mealtime easy while still providing my family with the foods they love.

Some of my attempts to shake up dinnertime have been more successful than others and I have learned a few tricks to make my life a bit easier. For example, when I want a tasty pasta dish I just grab a bag of Knorr Selects or Knorr Pasta Sides. Yes, you can cook noodles and add a jar of sauce when you want a pasta dinner. But as you know, that gets old really FAST! What’s great about Knorr products is that every bag has a recipe on the back. That opens up a world of options to pull you out of the dinnertime rut!

That is such a time saver for me. I know exactly what ingredients are needed and there’s no trial and error on my part. Knorr has done all the work, so all that’s left is for me to follow the directions…easy breezy!

Plus, most of the recipes go beyond a starch/sauce combo! Every bag has specific instructions or at least a suggestion for meat and veggie additions that help you create a family favorite meal with ease.

So for example, a bag of Knorr® Selects™ Cavatappi Pasta with Marinara Sauce is great prepared according to directions. But, with a few additional ingredients you end up with a hearty meal that includes beef, carrots, onion and mushroom. My guys would never request that I add carrots and mushrooms to their typical pasta meal…but when it’s all together in a tasty recipe, they gobble it up and ask for more! That’s a win in my book!

Right now we get the chance to add some tasty Knorr products to our pantry and save a little moolah.
