I keep a package of frozen meatball in the back of the freezer at all times. Farm Rich turkey meatballs are one of my life’s little emergency kits when I have to prepare a quick meal. More often than not it's the thing that makes a low effort meal on lazy weekends and saves us from the temptation of ordering a pizza or going out to dinner.
I bake them in the oven, add them to a quick homemade tomato sauce and Boom! Instant spaghetti and meatballs. I use Farm Rich meatballs to make Swedish Meatballs my Husband says taste just like the meatballs Ikea serves in their restaurant.
Farm Rich asked me if I wanted to try their new cheese Farm Rich Stuffed Pretzel Bites. Farm Rich Stuffed Pretzel Bites are high fructose corn syrup and trans fat free. Since Husband loves all things pretzel I went for it and said yes.
The cooking time for cook Farm Rich Stuffed Pretzel Bites is roughly the same whether you use a conventional/toaster oven or a microwave oven. We tried both methods and liked the 10 minutes in the toaster oven method a bit better because the outside of the pretzel bite is crisper like a traditional soft pretzel. The warm gooey cheese in the center of each bite is a nice taste bud surprise too.
Would I actually buy Farm Rich Stuffed Pretzel Bites with my own dollarz? If I had a party, movie night, or invited a bunch of people over to watch sports most definitely because that’s the type of situation where I’d considering buying a snack like this. I usually do one pop in the oven prepared hot snack when I invite friends over for a casual get together so I’m not spending all of my time in the kitchen preparing the rest of the menu.
