Fazoli's Snacks Review




When I was in school, we used to pick up food on Thursday nights every week as a treat for making it through the week. We did it on Thursdays because we often spent Friday nights at my dad’s house. One of the places we would go is Fazoli’s. There was one in our town and they have breadsticks. I love Italian food a lot. I remember ordering delicious food from the drive thru. I always preferred going in and eating though because they were always walking around with the baskets of breadsticks. When you went to the drive thru you only got a couple. We would go to Fazoli’s about once a month, alternating other fast food restaurants the other weeks. It’s been a while since I have been to Fazoli’s, and boy did I miss it. I said did because now Fazoli's has their own brand of appetizers in the frozen section at Walmart called Fazoli's Snacks. There is really something for everyone.



They even have mini cheese filled breadsticks that Noah loves. I love the dipping sauce. It’s so flavorful. It’s also cheaper and better than ordering pizza every time Noah or I want breadsticks, which is a lot.   I personally love the Boneless Parmesan Chicken. It even comes with marina sauce for dipping! So if your kids aren’t sauce fans they can enjoy it too! I can’t wait for Noah to try the Six Cheese Toasted Ravioli because he is the pickiest kid in the world. He doesn’t eat meat and he doesn’t like sauce! I know I know, he’s goofy as can be. I really like that the Six Cheese Toasted Ravioli has the sauce on the side. Maybe he will try it then. I really like the Lasagna Fritta too.  I love Lasagna and this is a great way to have a bite size easy way to eat it. The crust is great too. I think that Fazoli’s Snacks are great for any get together, game night or to have for dinner. Make different varieties and have an amazing Italian buffet!

You can find Fazoli’s  Snacks in the freezer section at your Local Wal-Mart.

LOBSTERFEST is going on NOW!




Lobster is definitely one of my favorite foods. When Noah really wants something, instead of saying pretty please with a cherry on top, he says pretty please with lobster on top. Of course that is really hard to say no to because he knows me so well. One of our favorite restaurants is Red Lobster. Noah asks to go there often because he loves the Cheddar Bay Biscuits and so do I. Every year Red Lobster does LOBSTERFEST where they have different lobster dishes. It is really hard to pick just one. I wish that I could have a bottomless stomach where I could eat everything. I really have a hard time picking just one thing at Red Lobster. It is such a hard decision. We had the opportunity to visit our local Red Lobster and check out the LOBSTERFEST menu. Of course I had seen the commercials over and over again. It would instantly make me starving for lobster every time. I was really excited to get to go. So, we loaded up in the car and headed there with my mom and off we went. I was starving by the time we arrived. We ate Cheddar Bay Biscuits and Noah had three of them. He would have ate them out of them if I would have let him. 


I ordered The Lobster Lover’s Dream. It had a roasted rock lobster tail and Maine lobster tail, served with lobster-and-shrimp linguini Alfredo.  It was amazing. I wasn’t too sure about the pasta before I went honestly. Any time I had Alfredo sauce, I didn’t like it. I was wrong, I loved the pasta. I filled up on the lobster-and-shrimp linguini Alfredo. I also had a salad with oil and vinegar which was great. I ended up taking home the lobster tails because I was full after the fulfilling pasta, biscuits and the salad. I really enjoyed them the next night! 


 Noah had mac and cheese of course and orange slices. He gobbled everything down really quickly. He didn’t have any leftovers even after the biscuits, which surprised me. My mom ordered the Dueling Lobster Tails. Let me tell you, she was happy to take part of this review. The Dueling Lobster Tails are a lobster tail stuffed with crab and seafood along with another tail topped with creamy roasted-garlic shrimp. It also came with mashed potatoes and she chose green beans for her side. She loved the Dueling Lobster Tails and she kept trying to get me to try the fabulous green beans. The really cool thing was there was a party going on in the next room. We never figured out what type of party they were having but there were lots and lots of red star balloons. There must have been fifty balloons and a room full of happy party goers. We were hoping it was a surprise party, but that wasn’t the case. Our waitress was nice too.  We left very full, even with leftovers. I couldn’t stop eating.

Check out LOBSTERFEST going on now at your local Red Lobster. Go quickly because it is only for a limited time and trust me you DON’T want to miss out! It only happens once a year so if you miss it you will have to wait a whole year to enjoy LOBSTERFEST. Of course they have lots of delicious items at Red Lobster!
