Favourite ready meal...?

[SideWinder]

I rarely buy ready meals. I don't feel the need to as they are quite pricey for what they are and most of the time aren't that nice/filling.

But i used to love the chicken, chorizo and rice Mexican thingy that Sainsburys used to do until they stopped it.

Oh and obviously lasagna.

I'm with you on that, very rarely buy ready meals but the Levi Roots ones are nice, I think its the chilli beef that has a bit of a kick!

Morrisons Beef Stew and Dumplings, cracking eat for £2.50. Feeds 2 hungry people well.

I remember that one! I'm sure it was Jambalaya. It was delicious, don't why they stopped it.

Ready meal technology has come on a long way in the last few years.

My favourite is from M&S. It's chicken in giant Yorkshire pud, with small sausages, stuffing and roast spuds bunged in the middle. I make a couple if adjustments. A drizzle of oil over the pots and a large dollop of peas on top and thick gravy. It is so nice for £3. 30 mins in the oven.

You can also buy get it with beef instead of chicken.

Technology? you mean recipe?

The technology is still food in a tray, in the oven for a set time.

I'm talking technology as regards to preparation and storage.

Food technology is a recognised term.

Not sure they still do it but Tesco Finest Chicken, Leek & Bacon Filo Pie

 

[Jolteh]

Waitrose Mushroom Risotto is pretty legit for a ready meal.

 

[Participant]

Co-op stuffed crust double pepperoni, if pizza counts. Often 2 for £6 and an absolute bargain especially compared to the local fine pizza establishment.

Sainsburys used to do a Mashed Potatoes Minted peas and Faggots, was really good, but it didn't last long.

 

[Storm3y]

Asda Finest(or what ever they call it) Angus Shepherds Pie is my favourite at the moment.

What's a ready meal.
Fish and chips, roast chicken from the hot deli, hot pasty from the hot deli, or other takeaways is about as close as i get.

 

[Regy53]

Tesco finest meals for 2 are nice. Chewp toowith a bottle of wine

 

[MrMarvelous]

Not had a ready meal in at least a good 7-8 years now but I remember that the nice ones were usually Lasagne.

 

[redrooster303]

Morrisons margherita melt and the chicken, leek and bacon with potatoes. Best ready meals I've ever tried.

 

[airwave99]

Tesco Finest Lamb Ragu Tagliatelle is pretty good for a ready meal.
