FDR #3: Lean Cuisine Steak Tips Portabello
Another Frozen Dinner Review!
Lean Cuisine Steak Tips Portabello
4 Stars - ****
I love this meal. It’s got no starch included for those trendy Atkins/South Beach Dieters. The meal is steak tips (which is always an optimistic marketing term at best) with mushrooms in a brown sauce, coupled with broccoli florets. It’s only 180 calories, if you care about such things.
It’s a small portion. I could probably eat 2 of them for dinner. But I love the brown savory sauce. Since the meal lacks a starch, I like to have one or two slices of bread. There’s so much sauce in the box that I can strech the meat portion by dipping the bread into the sauce. I notice the skimpy size of the steak tips less that way.
I also love broccoli, but the floret size is pretty small. It’s one of the few vegetables my mother knew I would eat as a kid, tops only. I only found an appreciation for the stalks when I got older and trimmed off the tough green ‘bark’.
The meal goes on sale at my local supermarket for $2.00-2.25, which to me is a good deal. When this meal goes on sale, I always buy it. It always tastes great to me. Sometimes when 5 meals go on sale for $10.00, it’s so good, I’ll get two out of the 5.
