Boxed Dinner

This week, Healthy Choice gourmet frozen steamer bowls are on sale at our local Co-op supermarket.

I recalled liking these many years ago, so decided to pick up a few today.

Wiki says this about the brand:

According to ConAgra’s official corporate history, Healthy Choice came into being after then-ConAgra CEO, Charles “Mike” Harper suffered a heart attack in 1985. Forced to dramatically alter his diet, he came up with the idea of a line of healthier frozen foods.

Hubs is away at a poker tournament this afternoon, so I decided to make one of these for my dinner.

I wasn’t disappointed. The meal was colourful, flavourful, and the exact right amount for the lighter evening meal that I prefer. The chicken was tender and juicy, and with a 4 minute microwave cook, the noodles were the exact al dente that I like.

An added plus is that the WW Points for this meal weighs in at only six. That’s a small number of points for a satisfying meal.

Yes, btw – I’m back to tracking my food again with the WW App. In 2018, I lost 40 lbs by following the WW smart points system. For a long time, I maintained the loss with a few minor ups and downs in weight, no tracking, and exercise only. I’ve recently regained a few lbs that have been more resistive to leaving me, so back I go to tracking.
