Smart Ones: Spaghetti and Meat Sauce

A decent filling and healthy choice.

Today I am trying a new meal.  I paid $1.74 for Smart Ones Spaghetti meal. I am not huge fan of microwave meals.

The photo is a fair representation of the meal inside.  It absolutely does not have the number of mushrooms in the photo, but that is ok because I don’t care for mushrooms.

The bottom line: It is a pretty good meal for lunch or dinner when you are not feeling like cooking. I did add a little parmesan cheese to it, but overall this is a meal I will buy again.  Would I recommend this to others?  Absolutely.
