Dinner Time=Family Time at my house. Somehow we still manage to all sit down together every night. I know this won’t last forever as my kids’ schedules get crazier, but for now it is the time I look forward to most every day. And, while I enjoy cooking and being with my favorite peeps, what I don’t enjoy is the dishes!! Why are there no sweet forest animals looking to come clean my kitchen? While forest animals may not be an option, we can sometimes cheat our way through the dishes, thanks to Dixie Ultra.
The Dixie Ultra line offers a variety of products, including: 10 1/16″ paper plates, 8 1/2″ paper plates, 6 7/8″ paper plates, paper bowls, napkins, 16 oz. cups, and cutlery. These products are built strong, so that you don’t have to worry about leaks, soaking through, collapsing plates, or more!
Dixie was nice enough to send me over some plates and bowls in their new summer design. Tonight was the perfect opportunity for me to put these products to the test, since it was leftover night! Blake chose a grilled cheese, Wyatt had leftover fish and broccoli, and I had a salad. I loved that I could use these products in the microwave and then bring them straight to the table. And, the plates held up to Blake’s grilled cheese with no greasy residue! I can’t wait to put these plates to the test at our next family cook-out!
To get you ready for all your summer cook-outs, pool parties, and fun, Dixie Ultra will be hosting a Savor Summer Sweepstakes on Facebook! This fun contest will feature three themes, including: Outdoor Eating, Water Play, and Outdoor Sports. You can enter to win by uploading your photos that fit these categories. This contest will begin on May 18th, so be sure to check out the Dixie Facebook Page for more information and contest rules, guidelines, and anything you need to know so you can win!

Janel (A Mom's Take) says
It’s great that you all sit down to dinner as a family. We also try to do that as much as possible. I agree, sometimes the messes are the worst part of the day. I grab for paper plates and bowls from time to time. I like the Dixie’s new designs, so pretty.

I love all things Dixie! We use our regular dishes a lot but we have found ourselves using paper plates more and more to save ME from having to wash dishes. We have also started camping so these are great.. Nice and sturdy!
