TV Dinner Directions

I'm making myself a TV Dinner for lunch. It's a Swanson Hungry Man Turkey and Mashed Taters.

I've been eating these for literally decades. When I first moved down to NC from OH, Kristi had to stay up there to sell the house, and I was living in our apt. here by myself. And I was eating about 4 of these TV dinners a week. They would be a staple of my diet if I were not married.

Well I happened to check the directions, just to make sure I was going to poke holes int he right place, when I noticed the directions had changed. Instead of just poking holes over the taters and cooking for 45 minutes, you just cook it completely covered for 30 minutes remove the cover and mix things up, then cook it for an additional 15 minutes.

Bravo! The problem before was that some of the turkey slices and the stuffing would dry up. By mixing things up and pouring some gravy over the stuffing, this shouldn't happen. Nice to see a stalwart of Americana is still improving itself.

You make TV dinners in the oven? Somebody's got a lot of spare time!

I'm willing to wait to get things done right. :)

I just prefer how things turn out in the oven. And as my previous post alludes to, I DO have a lot of spare time. :D
