Directions: microwave on HIGH for 3 1/2 minutes, stir, cook for 1 more minute, let stand in microwave
Since when is meatloaf a Bistro selection? I thought it’d be a shoo-in for Comfort Classics.
This is a two-compartment tray. Once side is a meatloaf slice slightly larger than the palm of my hand. The other side is the mashed potatoes with green flecks which I believe are chives. The ingredient list reads like a chemistry lab. And although there are no red pepper chunks, the loaf and the “gravy” have red pepper in it.
The meatloaf has a pleasing spongy texture to it and I swear I taste a tinge of ketchup in it, which reminds me of home. The taters are decent too…a bit flat but the garlicky taste makes up for it. It’s not garlicky enough, though, to be a bad-breath-at-work issue.
Paired with a side salad and some carrots, it filled me up and made me happy. On its own this meal wouldn’t have.
