Hibachi House Microwave Meals

Hibachi-House.jpgI received a package of Hibachi House microwave meals (in a really nifty soft-sided cooler), and, set out to see if these frozen microwave Asian inspired meals tasted like fresh grilled with crisp crunchy vegetables as they advertise, rather than all rubbery like a typical frozen meal as they advertise.

Hibachi House meals take about 10 minutes to prepare. First, you thaw the sauce packet in hot water, then you put the bag of food into the microwave, then, you mix them together and enjoy!

I tried the chicken with broccoli first, and, man, the chicken tasted great, and, the vegetables were crisp and crunchy. There's lots of them, too. Yes, all this from the microwave!

The rice was steamed perfectly, flavorful, and, not all starchy and gummy like, and, the sauce was good, too.

The box said it was 4.5 servings, those must be for awfully light eaters, though. One box was much more than I could eat, it might be about 2 large, or, 3 medium sized meals in real life.

Overall, it seems pretty healthy, but, the sauces tend to have a high-ish sodium content. There's no trans-fat, MSG or nitrites added to the meals.

There's ten flavors, and, our other in-house reviewers gave similar high marks to the other flavors including mandarin orange chicken, and, Sweet and Sour Hibachi Shrimp (actual shrimp that looks and tastes like shrimp!).

The Hibachi House website even has ideas about how to "accessorize" your meals, including making it into a tortilla wrap or even lettuce wraps (love those).

They retail for about $5 and are available in the frozen food aisle at many local grocery stores and food warehouses throughout the United States.

We really enjoyed them, and, will buy them again.
