Today’s lunch is South Beach Meat Loaf.
This is your standard 2-item heat and eat meal. Preparation is simple, pull that sucker out of the box and zap it. No cutting, poking, slicing or venting required.
The depth of the tray would lead you to believe you’re getting more to eat than you are. You’d also think given the depth, they’d be able to keep the veggies where they belong.
Taste is OK, but not great, portion size is deceiving. I’m not sure what this costs but I’d pick the Healthy Choice or Lean Cuisine over these meals.
