August 19 Frozen Meal: Lean Cuisine Garlic Chicken
Monday, 2010 September 20 - 12:25 pm
"White meat chicken with bowtie pasta, asparagus, broccoli, and carrots in a creamy roasted garlic sauce."

Box

Meal

This is a new convenient package style from Lean Cuisine. Rather than fiddling with films and stirring meals midway through cooking, you can just put this whole bag in the microwave. Nice. It does make the package difficult to photograph, though.

Taste: Surprisingly good! It smells nicely garlicky. The sauce has a nice consistency, it's well seasoned, and everything seems cooked right. Compared to past Lean Cuisine meals, this is a huge step up. The improved packaging helps the cooking process, I think, but they seem to have improved their ingredients too. Score: 3.5/5.0

Nutrition

Nutrition: (That's 270 calories, in case you can't tell from the photo.) Good all around; high in Vitamin A and C. Score: 3.0/3.0

Packaging: Throw the bag in the microwave; that's it. It does require a separate plate for serving (unless you want to eat out of the bag), but that's not a big deal. Score: 2.0/2.0

Total Score: 8.5/10.0. A winner.
