Moms, college students, and bachelors alike all love Chef Boyardee. We all think of it as a quick meal, but I bet it’s never occurred to you that you can use it as an ingredient to create a whole new dish! Chef Boyardee has introduced a collection of quick recipes using their famed ravioli that can be made in 30 minutes or less. In addition to sharing these with you, Chef Boyardee is also going to give away prize packs to three lucky Contest Corner readers, so read on!
Chef Boyardee sent me two complimentary cans of their Beefaroni to review, and it did not disappoint. I just finished up a bowl for lunch, and it was a tasty, easy lunch for this busy Wednesday! Jai had some of the Beefaroni for his dinner last night, and this is what he said to me: “The pop-top lid, the ease with which it comes out of the can, and the lack of dishes that it created [since he ate it straight out of the can!] make it a perfect bachelor meal!” 😉
I’ve mentioned before that Jai is doing the majority of the food preparation right now as I recover from my knee injury. Quick and simple are the most important qualities for our current menu, so I was fascinated by the idea of Chef Boyardee recipes! They’ve got everything from Ravioli Lasagna – made by layering Chef Boyardee, frozen spinach, and cheese – to Taco-roni, a dish utilizing Beefaroni, tortilla chips, and black beans! Click here to access all of the recipes, available on ReadySetEat.com. These recipes would be great for Jai to prepare, so I’ve bookmarked this page for future reference!

Pepperoni Spaghetti Bake would be a big hit with my daughter. She loves spaghetti but her daddy gets tired of it. Lol. Maybe he’d be happy with this variation.
