Healthy Choice Lemon Pepper Fish
By: | Jun 20, 2006
After the slight disaster that was Lean Cuisine Baked Lemon Pepper Fish, I decided to try another fishy frozen dinner, Healthy Choice Lemon Pepper Fish. This meal comes with "breaded and lightly seasoned Lemon Pepper Fish, rice pilaf, crisp broccoli and apple cherry dessert." Unfortunately, the lemon pepper fish was very lightly flavored, so there was not much taste to it. The rice pilaf was a nice addition, and made the meal more substantial than just 'fish with broccoli and cheese' that was the Lean Cuisine dinner. I must say that I microwaved this dinner to within an inch of its life - way too much time. The fish was piping hot, but the broccoli was just lukewarm - just as with Lean Cuisine - but it was warm enough, quite fresh tasting, and a bit crunchy. The Healthy Choice dinner also comes a little dessert on the side - they say apple cherry dessert, I say, apple pieces in some kind of thick syrup. It was sweet, and pretty good, but I must admit that I didn't have much of it - just because I am not big on intensely sweet desserts or syrups.
There are 280 calories per meal in the Healthy Choice Lemon Pepper Fish, along with 5 grams of fat, and 2 grams of saturated fat, which is about 10% of the daily value. There is also 580 mg of sodium, which is 24% of the recommended daily allowance, 400 mg of potassium (11%), 13 grams of protein and 46 grams total carbohydrate with 4 grams of fiber (16%) and 17 grams of sugars. You can also get 50% of your vitamin C requirements and 10% vitamin A from this meal.
Overall, I preferred the Healthy Choice Lemon Pepper Fish more than the Lean Cuisine Baked Lemon Pepper Fish. The actual fish of the Lean Cuisine dinner had a better flavor, but there was more to the Healthy choice meal, and the broccoli came out better tasting.

Fish. You are brave. Braver than me. Which explains why I still have a Kid's Cuisine Fish Sticks meal in my freezer.
I just had it for lunch and I thought it was pleasantly good! I love fish and this fish was very meaty and a nice portion. Yum!
I am desperately trying to find Healthy Choice coupons! I eat HC for lunch & dinner 5 days a week. On the Internet I cannot find your coupons. I am delighted with the Panni's. Plus I enjoy most of the dinners - Sesame Chicken is still my favorite.
