I enjoy a number of Indian dishes and one of the items I
truly enjoy is hands down samosas. I used to work with a father and daughter
who would bring in homemade samosas to company pot lucks … and my love for them
blossomed. So needless to say, when I
spotted these Trader Joe’s Vegetable
Samosas I had to give them a go.
I decided to cook these up in the oven and have them for a
late lunch. They cook up and resemble
homemade samosas. While baking in the
oven they do let off a little bit of oil residue, which when you’re eating
makes your fingers a little shiny, but it’s nothing overwhelming. They’re
packed with vegetables and flavor while they are also a little spicy. I found
it to be a pleasant spice, but I shared these with my mother who thought it was
a little too spicy for her taste. I enjoyed
my samosas with a side salad and it was a delicious meal.
A serving is 2 samosas, which is 170 calories or 4 points
plus values. I would suggest if the
samosas are not going to be eaten in one sitting to not heat them all up because
as they sit the crust does get softer. I hadn’t put them into the fridge (all
were eaten in a day) but I think if they were put into the refrigerator they’d
be soggy overnight.
QUESTION:
Do you enjoy vegetable samosas?
I loved these! I was sorry they got a new recipe. Still healthy, at least! But more plastic. :(
