Stouffer’s says: Boneless chicken breast with gravy and mashed potatoes topped with paprika.

Abi says: I love how they note the paprika. What else would it be, tomato-based cocaine? No, I don’t know why I said that.

Did you know that they add chicken flavor to the chicken? This makes a lot of sense. I was expecting completely bland chicken in this dish. Instead i was greeted with remarkably flavorful (and way too salty) chicken. But still, it is a bit worrisome. If they started adding grape flavor to grapes and apple flavor to apples, the world wouldn’t be a very nice place.

If you’re anti-stuffing (except for the delicious homemade sort) then you’d prefer this meal to the Lean Cuisine equivalent (Lean Cuisine Baked Chicken). In fact, as I compare the nutritionals, I say that if you skip the gravy (easily done and highly recommended) this is a much better meal that comes in with fewer calories, less sodium, and more protein than the Lean Cuisine version (once again, skipping the gravy). If you like gravy, then relish the fact that you’re getting all of that gravy-goodness for just ten calories more than Lean Cuisine’s skimpy chicken serving.
