Friday nights are family movie nights in our house. Each week, the kids take turns picking out the movie, getting their animals situated just the right way and getting cozy on their blankets. Recently I made some props for our movie nights…a ticket window and food counter. This past Friday, we incorporated some easy meals into our movie night using Nestle Meal Solutions.
On Thursday, I headed to our local Walmart to pick up everything that we would need to make some easy meals. I picked up a Pizzeria Digiorno Pizza, Nestle Chocolate Chip Cookie Brownie Kit and Edy’s Slow Churned Light Ice Cream. You can read all about my shopping trip here.
Instead of our usual routine of dinner before the movie, I decided to let the kids eat dinner DURING the movie like you would in an actual theater. The Pizzeria from DiGiorno is a quick and easy meal that takes about 20 minutes in the oven. Sometimes it takes the kids 20 minutes just to pick out a movie so the timing is perfect. The kids LOVED taking the money and serving everyone from the food counter.
The chocolate chip cookie brownies were such an easy meal solution that the kids were able to help me prepare them that afternoon.
To save time, you could prepare them the day before. Then all that is needed is a scoop of ice cream on top at movie time. Edy’s Slow Churned Caramel Delight tastes amazing with the cookie brownie!
So, if you’re keeping track… that’s 20 minutes in the oven for the pizza and a scoop of ice cream on top of the brownies that are already made. Done! Let Nestle Meal Solutions take care of dinner so you can spend that extra time with your family!
Nestlé has a variety of products that help you make easy meals and get dinner on the table quickly. They are the perfect solution for those busy back to school nights that are coming up soon!
Pizza, chocolate chip cookie brownie, ice cream and Star Wars. I can’t think of a better way to spend a Friday night. Can you?
Thanks, Nestlé for helping this busy mom out!
How do you get dinner on the table quickly? I’d love to hear your ideas.
Let’s Keep in Touch!
