Is anyone else totally overwhelmed by their massive back-to-school to-do list? Between shopping for new wardrobes (why do kids have to grow SO fast?), tackling massive supply lists and trying to get everyone back into some sort of routine, I feel like I don’t have time left in the day to breathe, let alone cook a huge dinner. Thankfully, I found the perfect solution to the dinner problem: Boston Market!

 

Boston Market doesn’t just make it easy for me get a delicious family-style meal on the table fast, but they have an amazing deal going on to help me check off another back-to-school list item: lunches!

Dinner AND School Lunches Done in One Stop at Boston Market

 I made a trip to Boston Market this week with some of my favorite people and picked up a Family Meal. They come in sizes to feed 3, 4, or more people. You can choose from rotisserie chicken, meatloaf, BBQ Ribs, or roasted turkey, and then you get your choice of sides and, of course, Boston Market’s amazing cornbread. We had delicious creamy macaroni and cheese, veggies, and mashed potatoes with gravy as our sides.

While there, we also took advantage of the fabulous special Boston Market is running. When you purchase any family meal you get a fresh, never frozen rotisserie chicken for just $1.99.

If you have a huge crew to feed, the deal is great because it really stretches out their already generous family-sized meals. If you don’t have a huge family and really want to make the most of it, though, do what I did and take your $1.99 rotisserie chicken home to use throughout the week in lunches.
