Weight Watchers SmartOnes Roasted Chicken

By: Tanya Taylor, PhD | May 3, 2007

Weight Watchers SmartOnes Roasted Chicken with Sour Cream & Chive Mashed Potatoes consists of "white meat chicken in a mushroom and onion wine sauce" according to the box. The meat, which looked like 1 chicken breast was tasty and well seasoned BUT the mashed potatoes was dry and starchy. The sauce was flavorful so make sure to add some to the mashed potatoes - it helps a little but it still left me longing for the smooth creamy taste of 'real' mashed potatoes.

The meal is also a relatively small portion size, so it wasn't very filling - even for lunch, so be prepared to add a small salad or something else nutritious!

The SmartOnes Roasted Chicken has 180 calories, 4 grams of total fat (6% of the recommended daily amount ), 1 gram of saturated fat (5%), no trans fat, 34% of the RDA for sodium (most frozen dinners are high in sodium - but not this high), 17 grams of protein and 20 grams of total carbohydrates which includes 2 grams of fiber (7% of the RDA) and less than 1 gram of sugar. It's also 4 Weight Watchers Points.

I don't think I would buy this again because there is way to much sodium and half of the meal (the mashed potatoes) does not taste good. I would rather have spent the $3.00 on the Weight Watchers SmartOnes Southwest Style Adobo Chicken [read the review].
