I recently reviewed some of Schwan's foods: chicken pot pie, an eggplant and zucchini pie, apple pie and ice cream. I gotta say, I was pleasantly surprised, and I will CERTAINLY be using Schwan's service in the future... being a WAHM with four children, some days I want to make a healthy, homecooked meal but do not have the time. This is pretty much right on!
I used to have chicken pot pies when I was a kid. I always liked them. Schwan's is MMMmmmm... The crust was sooo good, my kids kept reaching over and pulling off a piece for themselves! And, call me an Eggplant Professional of sorts. My mother makes the BEST Eggplant Parm in the world (trust me on this one)... and she taught me how to make it just like hers. I usually do not like eggplant anywhere else, because it does not compare... Well, Schwan's Fresco by Scotto® Eggplant and Zucchini Pie was delicious! Most people do not make eggplant like Mom and I do... we layer the eggplant with mozzarella, grated cheese AND ricotta, along with red sauce. Well, SCOTTO DOES TOO! And they add zucchini slices (got to remember that!). My family enjoyed it as well.
Here's some more info about Schwan's: “With all of the shopping, cooking and cleaning duties people take on, it’s no wonder tensions sometimes trump enjoyment of the season,” said Kristy Griffin, Vice President of Marketing for Schwan’s Home Service. “The convenience factor means you can wow your guests with everything from Candied Sweet Potatoes to Holiday Bread Crostini and still have energy to entertain.”
Direct-to-door prepared dishes aren’t the only conveniences offered over supermarkets; visitors to www.schwans.com will also find quick and tasty recipes that incorporate ingredients they can buy directly from the Web site. Whether it’s Zesty Cocktail Meatballs, Chicken Crouton Casserole, or Frozen Chocolate and Peppermint Torte, Schwan’s™ Recipes keep convenience at a maximum.

I think the Asian Beef and Broccoli with Rice would be the best.
