Having so-so success with my first cafe steamers meal that I reviewed here, I decided to give a different one a chance to see if the mediocre meals would continue, I would be wowed, or worse.... sorely disappointed all together.
Again, the concept behind the meal is great where you place it in the microwave, then remove the steamer basket and stir the steamed food into the sauce bowl below. After mixing and taking a pic, I was ready to sample the goods.
I found the pasta noodles to be soft and while the marinara sauce wasn't thick enough for my liking, it had a nice seasoned taste to it. (like a bit of garlic) There was also some mozzarella cheese melted with the noodles, a little, but not a whole lot--which I preferred.
The amount of broccoli was just right. Enough to get that serving of vegetables in even I think. The real disappointment was the chicken. It was very good and also seasoned nicely, but there was only three pieces. Three nice-sized pieces, but it wouldn't have hurt to add one or two more....
Rating: 4 out of 5 stars. It is a meal that will fill you up and keep you satisfied overall. |
