Now that my toddler is in speech and preschool I feel like there are 3 days during the week where I am on the constantly on the go. Those are the days I am out of the house so I end up running errands, going to the park, or whatever else I might want or need to do that involves not being home. I’m horrible about eating breakfast and usually skip it altogether, so I am starving by lunch time and want a quick meal.
I was recently given the chance to try Barilla Microwaveable Meals. They are a great on the go and healthy lunch option. They are available in 5 delicious flavors and ready in 60 seconds.
- 100% Natural Ingredients
- No preservatives
- Relatively low calories (only 320 calories per meal)
- Two whole grain options
The Barilla Microwaveable Meals come in a convenient size. They don’t take up much space in the cabinet, and are the perfect size for a lunch box or to toss in your purse. They are easy to prepare. Just fold back the plastic to the dotted line, microwave for 60 seconds, pull plastic off, mix sauce and pasta, and Enjoy!
I was a little nervous on how the Barilla Microwaveable Meals would taste, but the pasta was cooked perfectly and the sauce was delicious. They are full of great flavor and left me feeling satisfied after my lunch on the go. I also like that you can spruce it up a little. I tossed some chopped up frozen chicken nuggets (60 seconds to heat) and Parmesan cheese into some of the lunches and it gave them a nice touch. You could even add some left over chicken, turkey, roasted vegetables, and/or mozzarella cheese.
While I love eating out, I try not to do it more then once a week since it’s not the best lunch option. I want to show my family that eating a quick meal doesn’t have to involve a drive through, lots of grease, and can be healthy. Barilla Microwaveable meals allow me to do that and I am happy I can have a healthier lunch that is quick and easy.
The Barilla Microwaveable Meals are the perfect lunch for the mom on the go or the mom who wants a quick and tasty meal.

I love the Barilla whole grain pastas. However,, have not tried the microwaveable meals. Thanks for the review and all the info. I will definitely check on my next store visit.
On the go, I tend to eat fast food, so it is good to have a healthy alternative!
Thankks for the heads up on the Follow All on Pintecrest !!!
We bring fruits and fresh food that we don’t have to heat. For work, I brings meals like this though for lunch.
I always plan ahead. I take the kids food with me before football practice and I eat meals like this for lunch. Thanks!

I am always looking for quick and healthy food for when we are on the go so that we don’t eat unhealthy fast food.
I use Barilla products quite frequently and love winning coupons thanks so much
this sounds good–I grab a totilla and throw some cheese in it an nuk it for 35 sec and go. When your on the run–what else can you do.
my family loves Barilla pasta…so I think they’d love this too. This would be PERFECT for lunch when I’m at school and don’t have a lot of time to eat. Thanks for the chance to win!
I try to have filling snacks if we are on the go or else my son wants to get fast food!
I always pack my lunches so these would be great
A had a couple of coupons for these meals and I bought two of them. I thought that they were delicious! They are easy to make and I would buy them again! There are no preservatives in these meals which I love!
My Lean Cuisines that I take into work for lunch always melt if I forget to put them in the fridge immediately when I get there, so something like this that doesn’t require refrigeration would be nice.
I like that these meals are made with whole grains and no preservatives! They look delicious and healthy! I would love to try these meals!
Eating wholesome on the go is hard, I typically do the soup to go drinks, as they can go anywhere and are easy to make
