"Restaurant Style" - Indeed! Surprising how GREAT they are.

a casual cook, quick and easy, love to eat, value conscious

Pros

large portions, spicy, but not too much, quick to prepare, very satisfying

This is seriously one of the tastiest frozen foods you may ever have. The first time we had these my guy and I went back and forth with, "They're really good aren't they?" - "They really are, wow." We will be getting these again...and again, and probably AGAIN.

Mainly, it's grilled (white meat only) chicken, Pepper Jack cheese, and just the right amount of spice. It says "fire roasted peppers" and jalapenos, but tastes more like green chillies to me - which I love! I can actually take quite a bit of spice too, but I truly appreciate a well balanced spicy that allows the other flavors to come into the mix.

The portions are great, a little large - just like I like them. There are four to a box, and each is a tortilla folded in half (with all the goodness inside) and they nearly take up half a plate. You see, I'm one of those women that the ladies "love to hate" because I can eat just about anybody under the table, and I almost never gain a single pound. I was simply blessed with a wicked metabolism! So if you wanted to have a half with a side dish, you could easily split it with somebody. Yet, I think it makes a fine meal all on its own - and a super tasty one at that!!!

I'm really not one to get all excited about frozen foods either, they're usually good enough for me if they merely do the trick of satisfying my hunger. This is a whole other story though, as I find myself saving them as one of my "good meals" as if they were a home-cooked meal or something - weird, I know.

We've found they really are "Restaurant Style" when following the suggested combo prep of micro and frying pan. After the micro (90 seconds on each side), throw them in a pan with some butter to make the outside nice and crispy. YUMMY!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm not sure how widely available these are, but I know you can get them at Costco.
This is where I have to admit I'm no domestic master, since I can't tell you how much they cost - my man does all the shopping (and even the cooking) in this house. Yep, I'm a very lucky lady. Anyway, I'll update this if he remembers. Although, he did say they were a little more than most of these types of options, but because of the large portions it also seemed quite reasonable. Well worth it, whatever the case.
