Best Packaged Vegetable Dishes of 2025

"Each of these meals is an excellent opportunity to try different Indian dishes. To boost the protein content, I mash a can of chickpeas and shred half a chicken breast, adding both to the meal. The outcome is a high protein, healthy meal that’s filling yet low in calories. Minimal prep time and a wide variety of options make it even better. I recommend keeping a food journal to track flavors and personal tweaks. I was new to Indian cuisine, and now I can easily distinguish between chicken Jalfrezi and spicy Tikka masala. Enjoy!"

"I found these meals to be great and very easy to make when I needed something quick. They had a lot of flavor and were some of the only foods that didn't cause me any digestive issues, which have been extremely distressing. Just a note: anything with chickpeas or beans may not be FODMAP friendly, so check the ingredients. However, these meals were easy on my stomach and helped me enjoy eating again. I plan to buy them again when possible!"

"These quick meals are perfect for on-the-go! They heat up in just a minute or two, and I love pairing them with bread or crackers. The Bombay Potatoes and Madras Lentils are my favorites; they're delicious and not too spicy—just the right amount of flavor. I could eat these every day! I will definitely be buying more of this brand!"

"I really enjoy this brand of quick meals, particularly this flavor. It tastes remarkably similar to the red beans served with rice that I adore in New Orleans. It’s a hearty staple we love to eat on Mondays. I find it best served with bread or small buns, and it's incredibly quick to heat in the microwave!"

"I appreciate the nutrition, taste, and convenience of this product. It’s perfect for my travel needs. The only minor hassle is getting the film off, but it’s manageable."

"This food has a lovely homemade chili flavor, and I love how easy it is to prepare. I simply vent the package and microwave it for a minute, then pour it into a bowl. It’s mess-free and makes for a healthy lunch option."

"This is my second batch of this brand of Indian meal. I love the convenience of the microwave meals and the taste. While I may not enjoy all of them, they are hearty meals that, with some bread or crackers, will satisfy anyone. My favorites are the Madras Lentils and the Vegetable dish, which reminds me of a pot pie filling without meat. As a vegetarian, these meals are perfect for quick dining. I highly recommend these to anyone! They are very tasty!"

"Some days my husband and I crave our Indian food but don't want to spend hours cooking. We've been ordering the Tasty Bite variety pack for years. They are truly tasty and incredibly easy to prepare. This has become a pantry staple for us, and I highly recommend it!"

"The Tasty Bite variety pack is good so far. I've tried the Punjab Eggplant and liked it a lot. I've ordered other Tasty Bite products before and have never been let down. I can't wait to try the other flavors in this pack. The Punjab Eggplant was spicy, and the Vindaloo is rated HOT! If you prefer milder options, the other packets in this box are either mild or slightly spicy, so there's something for everyone."

“I find these excellent for a quick lunch or to mix with meat like chicken or beef for burritos. I always keep different flavors on hand for a fast side dish.”

“I was genuinely surprised by how delicious these are. They even work well when power is lost since the grains, beans, and lentils are pre-cooked. Just heat them in the microwave, and they’re tasty with great healthy ingredients and flavorful sauces.”

“I decided to try an assortment set to sample different varieties. While I found that they all taste quite similar, they are a bit on the dry side and require added liquid to heat up. I think the price is a bit high, so I probably won’t buy them again.”

"I was impressed by how tasty and convenient this bowl is! The portion size is just right, and it's packed with nutrients. I plan to order it regularly!"

"I enjoy the flavor, but I had some concerns with the packaging. On two occasions, my box looked like it had gotten wet and had signs of chewing. This has made me hesitant to order again."

"For a quick bite, these bowls are great! They are simple to prepare, but I found there was a bit too much vinegar, which overpowered the flavors. I might try a different flavor next time."

"I initially bought this for lunch at work, but even now that I'm retired, I continue to enjoy it for any meal. It's incredibly convenient, just heat it up or eat it cold, and the ingredients are all recognizable with no high-fructose corn syrup!"

"I found these rice bowls at Costco, but since they stopped carrying them, I've switched to ordering them on Amazon. I love the steam-cooked rice, and after adding a little olive oil, it comes out deliciously hot!"

"While I think they taste okay, I found the rice to be a bit chewy and dry. I ended up adding some olive oil to enhance the flavor."

"I found this meal delicious and healthy. It's so easy to heat and eat, and one sachet is enough for me or two kids. Definitely value for money without sacrificing flavor!"

"Initially, I gave it a 3-star review, but after trying everything, I've changed it to 5 stars! They really are quite good!"

"I received this as a Christmas gift because I love Indian food. I haven't tasted it yet, but I'm excited to try it!"

“I find Kitchen & Love Riced Cauliflower to be a fantastic rice substitute for my low-carb diet, especially while managing prediabetes. It's incredibly easy to prepare and offers great versatility! I love tossing it in a skillet with some avocado mayo and garlic powder for a delicious rice bowl. The texture is just right—not mushy like other products. I highly recommend it!”

“This product is perfect for me as a traveler who enjoys cooking. It's very low-calorie and can easily be flavored with my favorite spices or just simple salt and pepper. It makes for a quick meal, and I can even add meat or plant-based options for variety.”

“I received the cauliflower in a box with about five packets. I didn’t freeze them right away, leading to a bitter taste. So, I would remind everyone to freeze them immediately. It was good until it wasn’t.”

"I usually don't do reviews, but this is fantastic! I was initially worried about the spice level since I don't like chili heat. However, the separate spicy packet of dried chili flakes allowed me to manage it perfectly. The freeze-dried veggies were a good size, and I could taste each one in my noodles. I'll definitely be a repeat customer!"

"I rarely write reviews, but I had to share my experience. I saw this on a Facebook ad and decided to try it. The classic seafood flavor is amazing! It quickly elevates my ramen by adding just a handful while cooking. It's a good size bag for the price, and I definitely recommend trying it!"

"I was skeptical at first, thinking these dried bits would just be for soup. But the texture and flavor of the mushrooms and cabbage are genuinely warming. This mix can turn a cheap pack of instant noodles into a real gourmet meal! I'm definitely going to buy another bag!"

“I take these to work for lunch. They are all good.”

“I was pleasantly surprised by how delicious and easy to prepare they are. Great side dish or meal.”

“I initially had low expectations for the soups, but with some spicing up, they became a good quick meal option.”
