Retails for around $2.95, found on sale for $1.20 at Kroger. Marie Callender’s says “White Meat Chicken and Broccoli over Rice Topped with Rich Cheddar Sauce”. And I concur with their findings, as this meal was very satisfying, and tasted great but although not terribly bad for you, the cheese cranked up the fat numbers. If [...]

Retails for around $2.95, found on sale for $1.90 at Kroger. Marie Callender’s says “Grilled BBQ White Meat Chicken topped with Cheese and Bacon, BBQ sauce, Roasted Red Potatoes and Corn”
A decent amount of food, tasty, and filling, but a little heavy on sodium and carbs (Corn and Potato’s). However, the dinner delivers a low calorie lunch, [...]

Stouffer’s says, “Tender beef steak tips in a sweet and tangy Kentucky bourbon sauce served with Cheddar-Ranch mashed potatoes. ” and they were RIGHT!
Our local Kroger’s ran a sell on Stouffer’s products for $1.70 per dinner, so it seemed the perfect opportunity to try some of the higher quality frozen dinners. In the past, I have had [...]

Slightly Expensive, but a filling healthy choice for lunch.
South Beach says, “You could spend half your lunch break in the deli waiting for the same old cold cuts on white bread. Or, you could pop our delicious Turkey Santa Fe in the microwave for a deli-style hot sandwich melt with that perfect Southwestern flavor. ”

Taste
Although these frozen dinners are very inexpensive and can usually be found at 1 dollar or less, the taste and quality of this meal is sub-standard. It is unfit to eat…..yes, even for third world countries.
The corn was the only thing that was semi-edible in this meal, needless to say, save your money and purchase a .60 [...]

Served with mushroom gravy and asparagus. Now with a full serving of vegetables.
As I am trying to lose my spare tire, I am interested in some healthier choices and this is my first review that would fall into the “health” category. After my days in public school, we had Salisbury steak every other day so needless [...]

Breaded chicken breast with rib meat topped with marinara sauce and mozzarella cheese with spaghetti. Chicken Parmigiana is one of my favorite dishes to order in restaurants so I was excited to try Stouffers version in their single serving frozen dinner.
Taste and Flavor
The chicken breast was quite thick and I had trouble getting it warm throughout [...]
