BENIHANA FROZEN MEALS: DINNER MADE EASY

 

I have a confession to make. As much as I love cooking, off late it seems to have taken a back-seat. Needed to simplify weeknight dinners, and that's when I came across Benihana Frozen Meals.  I had tried a host of different frozen meals from different brands and was skeptical about how this would go. Mind you, I love Asian food, Japanese food particularly. So I knew I had to test this brand's offerings out. If I loved it, then my office freezer could soon get stocked up. 

Benihana claims to bring home the hibachi-taste experiences with their meals, including Hibachi Chicken Rice, Hibachi Vegetable Fried Rice, Yakisoba Chicken, Yakisoba Steak, Rocky’s Chicken, and Spicy Chicken Rice. It was fairy easy to whip up dinner tonight, after activities. All that I had to do was get a box of Benihana Frozen Meal out of the freezer, and into the microwave. Every 10 oz meal is packed with jasmine rice/noodles, chicken/steak, onions, carrots and other veggies. They also do have vegetarian option, if you were interested. You can't miss the Asian taste, as the microwave goes on. Its not spicy but does have flavor in it. You could add a dash of hot sauce to it, if you wanted something spicier. Or you can even top it off with some scrambled eggs, if you wanted to make it heartier. Overall not a bad option, if you like the genre of frozen/microwaveable meals. I will surely be stocking my office freezer with a few boxes of this Japanese steakhouse specialty. I picked up my frozen meals from my local Target!
