This winter has been usually snowy in our area.  If we have snow, one or two inches is enough to shut down the entire community.  You can imagine how we felt when we several weeks of smaller snowstorms,  followed by a six inch storm.  If you guessed stir crazy, you were right. Thankfully, for a few days at least, spring is in the air. We’re ready to get outside and get active again.  Plus, it’s a busy time on the farm, with lambing season beginning.  We never know when we will walk outside and get a surprise like this…

Yes, that’s right, twins! So far  we have christened  them “Thing 1” and “Thing 2.” With so much going on in my life, I am looking for easy meals for my family, because sometimes you just need a quick lunch the kids will want to eat.  I found a solution when shopping at my nearby Walmart;  cans of Chef Boyardee ravioli, mac & cheese and spaghetti and meatballs.  Even better, they are on sale. Now through March 16, 2015, each 14.5-15 oz can of Chef Boyardee is on rollback at Walmart for only $0.75.   You can see the entire list of  Chef Boyardee 14.5 – 15 oz cans on rollback price here:
Chef Boyardee Rollback List . There are over 20 different varieties on sale so you can find something for everyone in your family, even the super picky eaters.

Chef Boyardee on Rollback
While shopping at Walmart, be sure to look for the Rollback signs for Chef Boyardee in the Canned Food aisle!

I’m a fan of the Mini Ravioli. I can prepare a lunch for myself within 90 seconds in my microwave, which is great for the days when I see this has happened within the 30 minutes I am inside the house, away from the pasture… Meet “Thing 3” and “Thing 4.”
