I grew up living in the country and all of my friends lived in town. I remember always being jealous of the folks in town because they could have Pizza Hut delivered to their homes. We lived too far out, so if we wanted pizza, we either had to go all the way into town to eat at the Pizza Hut restaurant, have dad bring some home after work, or make our own at home.
One of the silly big thrills for me when I left home for college was living in a town where you could have food delivered straight to your door! Pizza, Chinese, Sub Sandwiches… a whole new world of delivery options were available to me. It was quite an exciting thing for this small town country girl!
I now live in a Kansas City suburb, and we really don’t have many delivery options besides pizza. With the delivery options available, my family prefers Pizza Hut.
The other day, a representative from Pizza Hut contacted me about trying out their new Tuscani Pasta. She wanted to have some delivered to my family for dinner and also wanted to give three of my readers the opportunity to win gift certificates of their own to give the new Tuscani Pasta a try. I haven’t been feeling well at all the last couple of weeks (hence my lack of blogging…sorry!) and my husband has been traveling. The thought of having something delivered to my house besides pizza thrilled me, and I readily accepted.
Pizza Hut delivered their Premium Bacon Mac ‘n Cheese Tuscani Pasta to my house this past Friday along with an order of their garlic breadsticks. I half expected the pasta to be dry, but the Pizza Hut Premium Bacon Mac ‘n Cheese arrived and it was creamy, cheesey and full of flavor. The serving was extremely generous… we were able to have 2 1/2 meals out of this one order of pasta! The whole family loved it and it was such a welcome change from our normal delivery options.
Pizza Hut would like to offer three of my readers gift certificates for their own order of Tuscani Pasta and breadsticks.

I never should turn down a chance to win a dinner – one that I don’t have to cook!
And doesn’t come out of the checkbook! Thanks Pizza Hut!
I don’t usually get delivery, but when I do, I love a nice big cheesy pepperoni pizza! Of course, having some nice pasta would be pretty cool too…
May favorite delivery is pizza!! And I am excited to try the pasta…here’s hoping!
Since our current delivery options are pizza, pizza, or pizza…I guess my answer would be pizza (but if that Mexican restaurant down the street ever starts delivering…)
over on my side of the city, not much to choose from in delivary options. but over at my boyfriends, we can order Indian and Mexican, on top of the regular chinese and italian/pizza. my fave would have to be Indian tho. i usually get the Chicken Tikka Masala and he gets the Chicken Vindaloo. it usually takes about an hour but sooooo worth it!
Lans last blog post..mind your boobies
I pretty much like any kind of food delivered to my doorstep (now and then!). We don’t have much in the way of delivery in my area, so it’s usually calzones if we order out (I make my own pizza, and sadly, our Chinese places don’t deliver).

For delivery I’m afraid we are also limited to pizza. Usually we order from Godfather’s. Fortunately there is often someone at home who can run out and pick something else up for dinner if we prefer and the local take-out options are much broader including Mexican, Thai, Indian, Chinese and other tasty choices.

I’d have to say our favorite food to be delivered would be pizza! I’d love to have a chance at a free dinner delivered to my home! I’ve been curious about their new pastas… and it’s nice to read that your family really enjoyed it!
patsyks last blog post..Dulce De Leche Apple Bars – Oh My!
I was the same as you growing up – we lived outside of city limits, so we never had anything delivered. And really, pizza is the only thing that gets delivered where I live now – that I know of at least!!
Deborahs last blog post.."Warm You Up" Chili
Pizza is our favorite food delivered.
Thanks for the giveaway chance

We live in the country so we have the same problem you had growing up. There is one pizza place that will deliver but it’s too expensive so we have only done it a couple of times. I would love to win a free dinner. I have tried Pizza Hut’s alfredo pasta and it was wonderful!!!!
Thanks for the great contest!!!

We live in the country so no delivery! But in college I loved getting chicken tacos and nachos. Mmmmmm….
Oh it has to be pizza, I don’t even get anything else delivered! Yum.

I don’t normally do delivery, but when I do it is pizza. We don’t live close enough to town to get sandwiches unfortunately. I have seen the pizza hut commercials for this new pasta and have been skeptical, I would love to try it… they may just convert me yet!

Hmmm …. I WISH that I could get Thai food delivered … THAT would be divine!
My favorite home delivered food is pizza, with onions! yummy. Thanks!
For me it’s a toss up between pizza and chinese, yum! But I always love a delicious bowl of pasta!
We only have 2 options in my town: pizza or subs. I have ordered both and usually prefer the pizza. My husband has been bugging me to try this pasta from Pizza Hut…maybe now he could get his chance
Mmmmm….that looks good! Favorite delivery food….pizza, of course!
The only thing that we ever get delivered is Pizza !! I have heard that these new dishes are good!!
I honestly don’t know what I can get delivered to my house other than Papa John’s or Domino’s. I honestly don’t think I’ve had Pizza Hut since moving here 10 years ago, maybe it’s time to give them another chance!
Vickis last blog post..Russian Tea Cookies

This looks so good. Everytime I see it on TV I think about ordering it and like you said I to was worried it would be dried. Now after hearing what you said I really want to try it.
Thanks for sharing.

I think I’m a bit far away for delivery
In Paris there’s less delivery food than in US cities, but there’s still pizza (phew !). I love pepperoni.
Hopies last blog post..More birthday and apple roast pork
My favorite delivery food would be pizza – we order pizza at least 2 to 3 times a month.
Please save me from cooking when my husband leaves to go out of town. My son’s favorite is Pasta and Pizza

I’ve never been a bacon lover but the pasta on those Tuscani commercials looks so good!
I don’t order very much take-out but I love getting pizza delivery!
mariss last blog post..Afternoon Paninis
There was only one pizza place that delivered to our house when I was a kid, Pizza by Stout. It was the BEST!!! Pizza is all we really have delivered these days BUT sometimes Dave or I will stop by Thai Place for Spring Rolls and Crab Rangoon and eat that while the boys eat chicken nuggets and mac and cheese!

I don’t think we have those Pasta at Pizza Hut in Canada. This is all new to me.
Hélènes last blog post..Happy Thanksgiving! Bonne Action de Grâces!
I rarely order out but when I do, a thin crust pizza with pepperoni and green peppers is the winner! The only places that deliver around here are pizza.
Pizza is definalty my favorite.
Amys last blog post..Biscuits and Gravy
Definitely pizza!!
Anything delivered is my favorite food!
) With Ron travelling not having to cook for just me would be wonderful!!!
Thanks Pizza Hut!
DeLynn
haha I just did this same giveaway, isn’t that pretty good pasta! Let someone else have a chance to win this yummy dinner
Favorite? Pizza. Boring, but true.
Great giveaway!
The boys love pizza, especially having it delivered! I think they’re under the impression that we don’t have to pay for it if someone else drops it off
We’d love to try the pasta!
I LOVE pizza delivered any night of the week.
I love having pizza delivered… second fave is chinese
Ems last blog post..Pumpkin Roll

And I’d love to try one of the pasta dishes!

I’ve been seeing the commercials for this all the time, gotta admit I’m intrigued.

Kates last blog post..It’s not a food post
I’ve heard so many commercials for the pasta! Typically it’s pizza for delivery, but from a local place that makes really interesting combinations. If I could order pasta, I’d choose that before pizza though!
I worked at Pizza Hut in the mid 70′s for over two years. Since I was single and didn’t cook and was renting a place with a few girlfriends I pretty much ate pizza and pasta from the Hut every day. Sometimes twice. I LOVED to make the pasta dishes they had back then for dinner (pizza only goes so far in two years). Of course I added more goodies (ie cheese) than regulations allowed…
My favorite delivery right now is this local Chinese food place. Good food, not expensive, makes great leftovers.
Mrs. Ls last blog post..Small Plates – October 17, 2008
I like chinese, but that is just because our favorite pizza place doesn’t deliver. This would be great since my husband keeps talking about the stuffed crust pizza from pizza hut (which grosses me out) so I told him I would try their pasta. Even better if I can do it for free!
