Speaking of food, I wanted to fill you all in on a delicious little secret. First, let me just say that I am in no way being compensated for reviewing this item. I just really dig it and wanted to share it with you all. I rarely eat frozen food, but a while back when I was monitoring my caloric intake I needed to find a good lunch option. The fine peeps at SparkPeople.com mentioned Healthy Choice All Natural Frozen Entrees. I tried a few, but the one I keep buying up is the Roasted Red Pepper Marinara. It's sooo good that even though I am no longer monitoring my calories I still eat it! Below is the information from their website.

Fire-roasted red peppers, roasted garlic, and tangy marinara sauce complement whole-grain cavatelli pasta. With notes of Chardonnay wine and sea salt, this all-natural meal will tantalize your taste buds.
