I second the reply on the beef stew. I tried the Shrimp today and will pass on it in the future. My favs now are any of the chicken dishes in tomato cream sauces and the pork.

Does anyone know where to get these in northern illinois, I went to my superwalmart and they didnt have them....

I just ate my first one. The chicken toscana was really good

The price difference is amazing. They have a sale on the sometime and I'm able to catch them for 2 for $5.

Becareful the sodium intake is very high for some of them.

I've found it in WA before, Jeanyyy, already have some. It's NOT having to cross the border to find it (just like the Sugarfree Tang) that's my dream, but thanks for the post!

I had the shrimp one too and it was not something I would eat again. The Beef and Brocolli was YUMMY!!! My Super Walmart carries Chef's Choice. I was sooooo happy to see a quick lunch idea.

YEAH!!!! I found them at the Super Walmart on Wednesday!!

What impresses me the most is the seasoning -- they taste like real food, not just something frozen and fast.

Something I did think was odd == they have them at SuperWalmart but not at Walmart Neighborhood Market.

very strange, those Walmart people....

I picked up a sackfull of these at my local Walmart Supercenter today, $2.98 each. I've been doing Atkins for just over five weeks, and forgot to bring a lunch from home for the first time. These are just the ticket for a quick, legal meal, and taste pretty good too! Not to mention that the little bowls seem sturdy enough to wash out and keep for other purposes (maybe individual snack bowls full of bbq pork skins on movie night ;-))

Craig,

What flavors have you tired? Favorites?

reversengr Wed, Nov-19-03 14:36

I've just tried one so far: the Chicken Primavera. It was quite good. At 11 ounces (which I think is average for all of them) it won't leave you stuffed, but it was a good lunch. The others are in the freezer at work for days when I forget to bring lunch.

Actually, today was the second day I forgot to bring lunch, I also forgot yesterday and wound up going through the drive-thru at Hardees and getting a 1/3lb bacon cheeseburger, with mayo, lettuce, tomato, and onion (the bun went into the garbage can). They seemed very dissappointed that I didn't want to make it a combo! Just the sandwhich was nearly $4 with tax, so a $3 low-carb frozen dinner in the freezer is a good bit cheaper and a lot more convenient!

I'm looking forward to trying these!

Of course, I look at it and think how easy it would be to make this myself, but it's all about convenience I guess. I'll certainly keep some in my freezer...

They also cost $2.98 at my local Super Wal-Mart. I've tried 7 flavors; the only one I haven't had yet is shrimp stir fry. I've liked all tht I've tried, although my very favorite is the chicken toscana. They are well seasoned and they have a large amount of meat (for the price).

They're especially handy for a quick lunch and a dinner when I'm too tired to cook.

My local Publix supermarket has also started carrying the Chef's Choice Lo-Carb bowls.

tenorGJ Tue, Jan-27-04 08:34

Do you recall the Publix price. It would surely be more convenient to me than Wal-Mart...

debbie54 Tue, Jan-27-04 11:52

These Chef's Choice meals are great to take to work and
they are as cheap as eating out or less.Wal-mart has a lot of the low car products and they are getting more all the time !Chicken Fajita is my favorite !
