Olive Garden is giving consumers a new way to enjoy its food by offering a take-out Italian dinner option called the Family-Style Lasagna Bundle. Meant to feed up to eight people, the new meal deal caters to the growing number of consumers who may not have time to sit down at a restaurant for a full meal.

The Family-Style Lasagna Bundle is a take-out Italian dinner that includes an extra-large Lasagna Classico, 12 breadsticks, a jumbo house salad and a two-liter bottle of soda. The meal not only gives families the flexibility to enjoy the chain's food at home, but it is also a cheaper option than dining in.

While the meal deal is only available for a limited-time, the promotion demonstrates how sit-down chains can cater to changing consumer dining preferences.
