This past weekend I needed something for lunch … and since I
didn’t have anything in the refrigerator to cook, I decided to grab a frozen
dinner. After giving my options a once over, I decided to go with the Artisan Bistro Thai Style Yellow Curry with
Chicken bowl. I had never tried any
Artisan Bistro meal before but just from the looks of the dish on the box I was
intrigued.
I really enjoy curry dishes, but outside of Jamaican curry,
Thai curry is one of my favorites. Since I don’t have Thai food often, this
seemed right up my alley … and it definitely was. Outside of it being a Thai curry dish – what intrigued
me was the fact that it’s made with organic brown rice, quinoa and vegetables. The dish is all natural and gluten free.
Since I am known to have texture issues with frozen chicken microwave dishes I
was glad to see it contained free range chicken.
After a quick trip into the microwave, lunch was done and
ready to be served … and it was delicious! The curry had a bit of sweetness to
it which calmed down any potential heat that would’ve been there. There was
enough sauce to coat all the contents in curry sauce with a few stirs with a
spoon. The chicken isn’t chewy, the vegetables are plenty and the rice and
quinoa mix is spectacular. The amount
provided is perhaps equal to a cup size portion … but I found it to be quite
satisfying.
I’m not sure what retailers carry this brand of meals, but I
do know it’s available at super Target locations.
Each bowl is 240 calories or 6 points plus values.
