Frango Chocolates 1 LB Holiday Wrapped Milk Mint Box of Chocolates

When I bought other gifts from Macys on Cyber Monday, I got these for $9.98 if I bought a certain dollar amount of other items but it would normally cost about $28.  

These had good quality chocolate with a nice mint flavor.  It was a 1 lb.  box with 45 small size pieces.  These were pretty good, and I would order them again.

NORTHWOODS CHEESE COMPANY

CHEESE AND SAUSAGE SELECT GIFT BOX $45.99 plus shipping and a 20% off coupon code

 

Every year we have a Christmas eve dinner tradition of eating cheese, sausage and crackers. This year I ordered a NORTHWOODS CHEESE AND SAUSAGE SELECT GIFT BOX from WisconsinMade.com. Which was supposed to contain:

Wisconsin Cheddar Bar (7 oz)

Wisconsin Swiss Bar (7 oz)

Cheddar Cranberry Bar (7 oz)

Wisconsin Hot Pepper Bar (7 oz)

Also included were three meat products:

Northwoods Cranberry Summer Sausage (5 oz)

two Beef Summer Sausages (5 oz each)

 

But they said because of Covid items may be substituted.

So what I got was:

Wisconsin Cheddar with Onion and Chives (7 oz)

Salami cheese (7 oz)

Cheddar Cranberry Bar (7 oz)

Wisconsin Hot Pepper Bar (7 oz)

Also included were three meat products:

Northwoods Cranberry Summer Sausage (5 oz)

Beef Garlic Sausage (5 oz)             

Beef salami (5 oz)

We just decided to cut some of everything up and test all of it. 

The Wisconsin Cheddar with Onion and Chives was everyone’s favorite.  The salami cheese was my least favorite but still good.  The Cheddar Cranberry Bar had just a touch of sweet and was a lot better than I expected and the Wisconsin Hot Pepper Bar was very tasty with quite a bit of heat

  

All the sausages were very similar.  There was a tad of sweet in cranberry and the other two; the garlic and the salami I couldn’t tell the difference between the two.

 

After I ordered and received this gift box, I was a little disappointed that some of the items were substituted. However, I ended up with our favorite of the cheeses and got to try a few different items than I would’ve otherwise.

All of the cheese and sausages were very tasty, and I would definitely buy this again or some of their other varieties!

Trader Joe’s - My favorites part 1

 Bimbibop bowl

A microwaveable rice bowl with carrots, bean sprouts, spinach, beef and hot sauce. I really like these and they’re very easy to make. The beef is good, but there is not a lot of it.  The Korean hot sauce packet is good, but you can make it too hot if you’re not careful.

Cheese enchiladas

The package has 2 cheese enchiladas with sauce.  I think these are best frozen enchiladas I’ve ever had!

Chicken or Pork Potstickers

These have good ingredients that you can actually find inside cabbage, carrots, onions and meat. These are perfect with a little soy sauce and chili garlic sauce.

Korean scallion pancakes

These have scallions, carrots and mushrooms.  I like to cook them a little longer to make them extra crispy.  Like the pot stickers these are also good with soy sauce and chili garlic sauce.
