Lean Cuisine Culinary Collection Chef's Pick Meals Product Review

Recently I started on a weight loss journey and I am glad to say that I am down a few pounds.  Only 40 something more to go.  I wish it wasn't so much work to take the pounds off.  I am a very busy mom and many nights I find myself looking for something very quick to eat in between picking up the kids from various activities.  This sometimes leads me to the drive through.  Until I found the Lean Cuisine Chef's Pick Meals. 

The Chef's Pick Meals are made by chef's and are supposed to resemble meals you would find at restaurants. The meals are very affordable and are usually around $2.00 per meal.  I tried the Chicken Carbonara. I found the meals to be a wonderful option for those busy nights when you do not want to have to stop for take out.

Lean Cuisine Culinary Collection: Chicken Carbonara

This meal was wonderful.  It had 240 calories and 21 grams of protein.  I found this meal to be very filling and tasty.  The sauce was creamy and everything I love about chicken carbonara.  Except it didn't have the guilt attached to it when I eat it out somewhere.  I will definitely be buying this meal again and can not wait to try others in this collection. 

I would like to add for dinner, you would probably want to add a large salad to go with the portion.  While, the serving would be perfect for a lunch, it was a bit small for dinner.  I love the convenience this product provides and am looking forward to trying the chicken pecan that I have in my freezer right now. 

Question:  Have you tried any of these new Lean Cuisine Meals yet and what is your favorite? 

I have partnered with Lean Cuisine through DailyBuzz Food to help promote their new line of Chef’s Pick products. I have been compensated for my time commitment to work with this product. However, my opinions are entirely my own and I have not been paid to publish positive comments. Thank you Lean Cuisine!
