Kashi All Natural Chicken Pasta Pomodoro

Kashi Chicken Pasta PomodoroKashi has a line of "All Natural" frozen entrees which combine ingredients like whole grains, vegetables and natural chicken or shrimp. I love the natural concept applied to frozen dinners, but the price of the Kashi meals tend to be close to $5.00 which is almost 2x the price of similar products. Plus you could probably buy a whole chicken for that amount of money! But as luck would have it - these meals go on sale occasionally, and I quickly snapped some up when I had a chance, including the Kashi Chicken Pasta Pomodoro. This consists of "chicken and roasted vegetables over whole grain pasta and topped with fresh tomato garlic basil sauce, parmesan cheese and Kashi 7 Whole Grain Flakes."

This is one of my favorite Kashi meals. The chicken and pasta were very flavorful - that sauce is "smack your lips good" and not too garlicy (like the Kashi Roasted Garlic Chicken Pizza). I scraped out the sauce/ veggie sauce even after everything else was gone, but that was because it was good - not because I was left unsatisfied or hungry. This was money well spent.

A Kashi Chicken Pasta Pomodoro meal has 280 calories, 6 grams of total fat (9% of the RDA) which includes 8% of the daily requirement of saturated fat (6 grams), no trans fat, 20% of the RDA for sodium (470 mg), 19 grams of protein and 38 grams of total carbohydrates which includes 5 grams of sugars and 6 grams of fiber which is 24% of the RDA.

Tasty and nutritious. If you can catch this on sale or if $5 isn't too much for you, then give the Kashi Chicken Pasta Pomodoro a try. Other Kashi entrees that I really enjoyed are the Black Bean Mango Entree and the Sweet and Sour Chicken.

The other day I was going to get one, and my mom was like "For five freakin dollars?"

The best one is the mango black bean one. MMM.

My personal favorite is the santa fe chicken, soooooooo good, try it out!

That looks good! I will have to give it a try sometime.
Maybe you can help me out with something…? I want to order all of my food online from now on because of various reasons, but I don’t know where to go for quality food. I have tried 2 companies so far, Fresh Dining, and and Celebrity Foods, but I wanna get others I can try out. Do you know of any? The main thing I’ve ordered so far is steak. I guess you can say, I’m a steak junkie. LOL!!! From what I have found out (from what I have ordered so far) I think I am able to regulate the quality of beef I buy. I hate going to a store and getting that crappy slab of beef that I have to cut down until there is like nothing left. Hahaha!!!! (its so true though) Anyhow, sorry that I made this comment so long. If you can help me out or point me in a direction where I might find more quality foods online, I would greatly appreciate it. Have a good day or night! (depending on when you read this) LOL!!!!
