We tried this new Amy's meal a short time ago and both Cop Dad and I really like it a lot. It's vegetarian but not vegan due to the cheese. I prefer to heat up one of these than many of the other frozen meals I see at the store since I have been cooking and baking less in these late days of pregnancy. Even "Meat and Potatoes" Cop Dad digs 'em. We were stuck on Amy's Black Bean Enchilada Meals for the longest time but now these are our favorite. It is always sure to perk some interest and skepticism in the lunchroom at the PD as well when I send them in Cop Dad's lunch. Then when the smell fills the lunchroom and Cop Dad starts eating, usually several other fellow cops are saying how good it smells and looks. These are lightly coated with a tomatillo verde sauce which has a slightly tangy taste. If you are not a fan of tomatillo's, then perhaps you'd like to try a different Amy's selection. Have any favorite Amy's meals?

I've never even heard of this brand! Is it found in the organic section? Man, we are missing out on some AWESOME food items in this part of America!
It looks way yummy and hubs is a huge fan of anything spicy and Mexican. I'll have to look into it!
Ooh Natalie, these are good. I have found these at health food stores or regular grocery stores in the meatless, organic, or vegetarian section. They used to be hard to find but now even the big chain stores sell them. Try this locator link:

Hope you find them. Target grocery has them by me and decently priced too. Good luck!
Oh, and don't feel bad Chicagoland has some of the best food on the planet, not by just me but is geographically notorious for this reputation. My family throughout the US is always jealous about the food here.
i think they carry that at our Trader joes,but yes im always skeptical since they are frozen and all.But i will pick one up and let you know my thoughts:0
Yeah, they carry them at our TJ's too. If you like and are used to vegetarian food then you will more than likely like them. If you aren't then they may seem lacking if you are having a taste for (or used to) more cheese and meat. I was on a diet awhile ago and making lots of vegan and vegetarian foods and these were great cause they are healthier and lower in fat and all the other bad stuff as well.
It looks good I will have to try and remember to look for these when i go to trader j.if its easy to cook and taste good than its for me!
I take Amy's meal for lunch almost every day. I can't wait to try this new one, which has not yet made it to my grocery store. My favorite is the Country Cheddar.
Hey Nadine,
Howdy stranger :) Good to hear you're still alive and kickin'! These are really good, and we also liked the black bean enchiladas and tamale pie too. My mom gets the tamale pie and eats it with corn tortilla chips like a dip/meal. I have also gotten the tofu scramble a few times and like it but think the tofu makes me gassy. Sorry TMI. Glad you stopped by. How's the doulah training going?
