[quote=Anonymous]I actually think their produce is pretty good, but sometimes it doesn't last as long as other stores. Other times it's better. Mandarin Orange Chicken + Rice + Veggies (I throw some broccoli, carrot, bell pepper, green onion, and pineapple on the oven tray and it's almost like sweet and sour chicken). We prefer to bake this at a higher temp for a bit longer for crispier chicken. Many of the frozen pastas are very good as much as I hate to admit that. Cacio e Pepe, Alfredo, Penne Aribiatta, are all good. We make these with a side salad when we are SUPER crunched for time (late nights after driving carpool). Veggie Gzoya and Scallion Pancakes (the thinner ones, not the thicker ones) and rice and veggies are great. You can fry an egg and serve with asian sauces of your choice for extra flavor and protein. We love their frozen pizza dough, mozzarella, and pepperoni for pizza. The tri-color frozen cauliflower is great to add to meals as a frozen veg that feels much nicer than a frozen veg (I add broccoli for 4 colors). They have good dips, so we have done a falafel night with pita and hummus, tzatziki, harissa, frozen falafel, and veggies (fresh such as tomato, cucumber, parsley, onion and marinated such as olives, peppers, beets, artichokes). I like sauce so I'd add a balsamic vinaigrette or tahini or something else to this. Maybe also some lemon squeezes. Could also serve with rice as bowls instead of pita, and add rotisserie chicken if you are carnivores. [/quote]
