08/31/2015: Smart Ones Santa Fe Rice and Beans

First impression: Smells fine.


This is what the box says the meal will look like!

Taste: The thing I like here is the bean variety - both black and pinto! It tastes just fine, probably just like you'd expect it to. There's some cheese in there and a few pieces of corn and other veggies - red peppers and zucchini. I would like to have more veggies.

Cooking: Pull back film, cook 3 minutes, stir, cook 1 minute.

Filling level: 2.5/5

Nutrition: 260 calories, 6 g fat, 580 mg sodium - here's the full label.

This is what the meal actually looks like!
(Pepper action added after cooking.)
Overall: While this one tastes fine and is certainly edible, something about it was off for me. I much prefer the Lean Cuisine version.

Grade: C+
