M&S Fish Pie In a Pot

M&S Fish Pie In a Pot

By Bill on November 29, 2010

“Haddock & salmon pieces in a crème fraîche and leek sauce with spinach, topped with a creamy potato and pea crush.” This is the first of three reviews of a new(-ish) line from M&S of “stuff” in a pot. Overall I am very impressed with these meals, particularly this one. The meal is layered with […]

M&S House Shaker Salad

M&S House Shaker Salad

By Bill on November 22, 2010

Pasta, cucumber, peas and beans with a creamy oregano and garlic dressing. The pasta in this salad looks like tortellini but it’s actually hollow. It’s good and chewy, but I haven’t figured out the obsession here with egg pasta. Regular pasta would be just as nice in this salad and would help reduce the fat […]

The City Kitchen King Prawn, Chicken and Chorizo Paella

The City Kitchen King Prawn, Chicken and Chorizo Paella

By Bill on October 14, 2010

“King prawn, chicken and chorizo paella, tomato & basil sauce with smoked Spanish paprika” My Tesco occasionally has a few meals from The City Kitchen (this drives me crazy; either you stock it or you don’t, choose for cryin’ out loud!) so I grabbed this one as paella is rare. The variety of rice used […]

M&S Super Wholefood Salad

M&S Super Wholefood Salad

By Bill on October 12, 2010

“Super wholefood salad with a mint vinaigrette” This isn’t my favorite salad in the M&S Super Wholefood line. It has loads of healthy stuff–edamame, chickpeas, pumpkin seeds, lentils–but it’s just not as flavorful as their other salads. As advertised, it’s very minty, but that’s all I wrote while taking my tasting notes. It would make […]

Levi Roots Caribbean Curried Noodles

Levi Roots Caribbean Curried Noodles

By Bill on September 13, 2010

“Spicy coconut curry sauce served with cooked noodles and blanched vegetables.” Loads of veg in this meal: carrot, peppers, peas, green beans, cabbage. The sauce tastes a bit like a peanut sauce but best I can tell it has no peanuts (but may have traces as all meals seem to have these days). It does […]

M&S Edamame Soya Bean Salad

M&S Edamame Soya Bean Salad

By Bill on August 31, 2010

“Edamame soya bean salad with a chili & coriander dressing” This is a great salad. The veggies (sugar-snap peas, broad beans, green beans and, of course, edamame) are crisp, flavorful and sweet. The dressing is gingery and spicy and not too oily. I’ve nothing bad to say about this salad except that it’s hard to […]

M&S Thai Green Chicken Curry & Jasmine Rice

M&S Thai Green Chicken Curry & Jasmine Rice

By Sharon on August 29, 2010

“Thai green chicken curry with with sugar snap peas & sticky jasmine rice” Since the package specified sticky jasmine rice, I tasted it first, before applying sauce. The rice was nice, a little sweet. (Of course the lack of comma suggests that the jasmine is sticky, rather than the rice, but who cares about a […]
