Birds Eye Teriyaki Cauliflower Wings

For those of you who are too dang fat like I am you may take interest in these Birds Eye Teriyaki Cauliflower Wings. Much like their buffalo version these are too thick, like me, and should be cut smaller to fit in the mouth as a single bite. 

What we are doing here is hiding cauliflower under breading and sauce. The breading and sauce are great, but if the cauliflower is too big it will still be noticeable. 

If you can go with the broccoli version. It's much better.

Birds Eye Steamfresh Brussels Sprouts

For those of us who need to inject some health into our lives Birds Eye Steamfresh Brussels Sprouts are a good idea. Pop them in the microwave pack and all and out comes these green edible turds. They will never grill up as good as fresh Brussels Sprouts, but if you are sadistic enough to eat these they are fast and easy. 

The truth is that most of us should start a healthy diet with frozen vegetables because fresh ones will rot before be cook them. Get used to eating vegetables at every meal with frozen before you go fresh. 

Steamed Brussels Sprouts don't taste great to start with and steamed from frozen will always we a bit worse. These are still as good as they will be so eat up.

Birds Eye California Blend Frozen Vegetables


 Birds Eye California Blend Frozen Vegetables are a mix of carrots, cauliflower, and broccoli. I guess all those things are grown in California, but I don't see the connection. They are also things that don't freeze well and I cooked them to a crisp for that reason. 

Truth be told, frozen vegetables are the kind that don't rot and are still around when you want to eat them so these aren't a bad idea.  Buy a few bags and cook away. 

Your body will thank you. Your mouth will be upset.

Birds Eye Riced Cauliflower Roasted Garlic


 Birds Eye Riced Cauliflower Roasted Garlic tastes like hot pickles. I mean, what the heck is this about, man?! Tastes so odd that I would have never guessed what it is but then I don't like the flavor of riced cauliflower. 

Things taste nasty and I would never get them again. I like my rice to taste like rice. I like my cauliflower to taste like cauliflower. Well, no I don't, but this is not an improvement.

Birds Eye Teriyaki Broccoli Bites


How do you take something good for you and make it bad for you? Bread it and deep fry it normally. Birds Eye Teriyaki Broccoli Bites are breaded if not deep fried and they are much better than the cauliflower bites because the
cauliflower bites smell like, well cauliflower. 

This is better for you than just eating fried chicken. It's still a lot of Calories and not that great for you but the flavor is spot on. If the bites were bite sized as apposed to too large to fit in my mouth I would have liked these better. 

All in all, this is worth trying, because you may just like them. They didn't make me wish I was eating something better.

Birds Eye Buffalo Cauliflower Wings

Birds Eye Buffalo Cauliflower Wings are breaded Cauliflower. Are they good? Meh, I wouldn't get more of them but they did clear my sinuses. 

Some of the pieces are just too large but the flavor is just right. It all comes down to mouth feel but I would never eat these as finger food. I hat to cut a few of them into peaces which did not work well with the breading. 

If you love wings you should try these. I like wings but these just aren't as good. They could be better, but I did eat them all.

Birds Eye Five Cheese Lasagna


 Birds Eye Five Cheese Lasagna hasn't the cake like texture of lasagna and is a bit, well, American. The cheese is fine, what cheese there is, but there just isn't enough of it to make these a real five cheese lasagna. 

This is what happens when you try to take something indulgent and make it good for you. The result is a disappointment all the way.

Birds Eye Riced Cauliflower Savory Herb

Birds Eye Riced Cauliflower Savory Herb is nasty vegetable slop. I mean very much that I can't taste any herbs unless by herbs they mean that some man named Herb left his mark on this blob of old vegetables. 

These are only okay if you mix them with something that doesn't taste like crap. Otherwise, you've got the nasty taste of vegetable burps on your plate.

Birds Eye Steamfresh Veggie Made Spaghetti Style Marinara


 Birds Eye Steamfresh Veggie Made Spaghetti Style Marinara isn't bad. It isn't great, but it isn't bad. For something you can pop out of the microwave and onto a plate I think it's fine but you get that big bag with few noodles in it. Dinner for one.

Birds Eye Steamfresh Gold and White Corn, Carrots, Asparagus

Birds Eye Steamfresh Gold and White Corn, Carrots, Asparagus really does cook in pack. I mean, you just dump that thing in your microwave and let it cook then open the bag and put it on a plate. 

It still tastes like vegetables and frozen asparagus will never be as good as fresh, but it still gets your pee stinking. These packs being vegetables they don't taste like much so you may want to add some pepper, but other than that: eat this stuff, it's good for you.
