"We tasted four new varieties of Organic Bistro Bowls and two new varieties of sister brand Helen&amp;#039;s Kitchen Burrito Bowls, both of which advertise frozen meals made with lean protein, sustainable seafood, and organic vegetables and grains. When juggling work, family, and everything in between, frozen dinners start to make a lot of sense. Read on for our review of how these bowls stack up.   Asian Style Coconut Lemongrass with Chicken Comes with: quinoa, brown basmati rice, and vegetables Nutritional Highlights: Calories: 290, Fat: 6g, Fiber: 7g, Vitamin A: 100%, Vitamin C: 30% Cooking Method: microwave Portion size: satisfying Would you buy this product again: Yes Overall impressions: Taster thought the flavor was great (lightly spicy and well seasoned), but there wasn&amp;#039;t enough sauce, so some of the bites were bland. Chicken chunks: plentiful, good-sized, and all white meat (no gristle or fat) - very pleasing. Vegetables: normal frozen variety, meaning the texture was compromised by their being frozen and reheated. Rice-quinoa mixture: quite mushy.   Thai Style Yellow Curry with Chicken Comes with: brown basmati rice, quinoa, and vegetables Nutritional Highlights: Calories: 270, Fat: 5g, Fiber: 5g, Vitamin A: 90%, Vitamin C: 8% Cooking Method: microwave Portion size: satisfying Would you buy this product again: no Overall impressions: The veggies were too mushy for our liking. But as with the lemongrass chicken bowl, the chicken chunks were large, tender, and copious \u2014 a big plus. The sauce was also a little too mild and didn&amp;#039;t give us the curry kick we were hoping for. Want to make a quick Asian-style dinner at home?

Thai Style Red Curry with Beef Comes with: brown basmati rice and vegetables Nutritional Highlights: Calories: 320, Fat: 11g, Fiber: 5g, Vitamin A: 180%, Vitamin C: 45% Cooking Method: conventional oven Portion size: average to generous Would you buy this product again: Yes Overall impressions: Thumbs up. The dish tasted &amp;quot;healthy&amp;quot; (no oil in sight), and though it wasn&amp;#039;t bland, taster felt the dish was dry. The meat was tender, bite-sized, and there were no fatty pieces.   Sesame Ginger Wild Salmon Comes with: quinoa, brown rice, and vegetables Nutritional Highlights: Calories 300, Fat: 6g, Fiber: 4g, Vitamin A: 120%, Vitamin C: 30% Cooking Method: microwave Portion size: satisfying Would you buy this product again: No Overall impressions: The salmon filet was generously sized, though a little dry after microwaving. As a whole, the taster felt this dish was filling, hearty, and healthy \u2014 &amp;quot;perfect for work lunch or a quick dinner.&amp;quot;   Fiesta Black Bean Bowl Comes with: brown rice, spinach, and beans Veggie Fajita Bowl Comes with: black beans, corn, and Anaheim peppers Nutritional Highlights: Calories: 250, Fat: 12g, Fiber: 7g, Vitamin A: 100%, Vitamin C: 140% Cooking Method: microwave Portion size: fairly filling Would you buy this product again: Yes Overall impressions: One taster said, &amp;quot;It tastes more like health food than Mexican food, but for a quick frozen meal, it was a nice portion, fairly filling.&amp;quot; We felt the burrito bowls could use the suggested garnishes (a dollop of light sour cream and fresh chopped jalapeno slices), plus a tortilla or even some corn chips. At 250 calories each, those additions wouldn&amp;#039;t tip it over on the health scale. The veggies were plump (not shriveled, like some frozen vegetables can be) and chunky enough to be recognizable as their original forms. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
