Italian-Style Salad

Are y’all getting excited for the holiday season?! I have a serious love/hate relationship with this time of the year. Although I love the holidays and I enjoy spending time with family, sometimes, (okay, often times,) I feel way more stressed out during this time of the year. I hate to admit that I’m the kind of person that wants everything to be perfect and I get kind of obsessive about it.

One way I know that I can make things easier on myself is by making mealtime stress-free. For the past few years, I have made it a point to make the day before any major cooking holiday (Easter, Thanksgiving, and Christmas) as easy for me as possible!

Since we usually host our holiday dinners with family, I have a lot of prep work that goes into our holiday meal to get ready for the big day! I need the day before the holiday to be as easy as possible. Plus, I want to be able to spend time with my family and not spend all of my time in the kitchen.

A Christmas tradition

In the Love Bakes Good Cakes house, Christmas Eve dinner has always been lasagna – it’s a tradition for us – and that eventually transferred to the day before all three of the cooking holidays. I have come to rely on STOUFFER’S® Family Size Entreés Lasagna with Meat Sauce. It requires no prep work and clean-up is a breeze! Who doesn’t need more meals like that?! Not only is STOUFFER’S® great for the day before a holiday, but it is an easy solution to feed your family any time during the busy holiday season!

While shopping at Walmart, I noticed that STOUFFER’S® Family Size Entreés Lasagna with Meat Sauce are on rollback (on rollback from 10/1-12/31) – so I grabbed a few to stick in the freezer for all of those hectic nights sure to come! I can easily throw together this Italian-Style Salad for a complete meal my family (and guests!) will love!
