Weight Watchers Smart Ones Chicken Oriental
By: | May 22, 2009
I enjoy eating Chinese food, but it is definitely not very healthful with all the oil and salt they use. Frozen Asian-inspired meals like this Weight Watchers Smart Ones Chicken Oriental are a great alternative to restaurant fare. Even though frozen food can be hit or miss, this one was pretty good to me.
This meal seems pretty standard: rice, chicken, veggies, and sauce. The quality of the rice and chicken was good, and the sauce covered the food in just the right amount with a nice mix of sweet and salty that was reminiscent of a Chinese restaurant but less oily. The vegetables included the typical carrots, celery, and bell peppers, but I was surprised and pleased to also see water chestnuts, bean sprouts, and spinach. Each component delivered and really made this meal delicious.
Each package of Weight Watchers Smart Ones Chicken Oriental provides 230 calories, 2.5 grams of total fat (4% of the daily value), including 0.5 grams of saturated fat (3% of the DV), and 35 milligrams of cholesterol (11% of the DV). There is also 640 milligrams of sodium (27% of the DV), 12 grams of protein and 39 grams of carbohydrates, including 2 grams of dietary fiber and 4 grams of sugar, plus 20% of the DV for vitamin A.
I paid $1.75 for this meal at Target while it was on sale, but it normally sells for $1.99. I have had some mediocre experiences with the Weight Watchers Smart Ones series, but this meal was a winner for me.
