Looks: Oh my, it's so pretty! Everything looks so bright and fresh and not a cream sauce or scary cheese in sight.
Taste: YUM! This was a good reminder that eating out of the freezer everyday kinda sucks. Obviously, salad is going to beat anything out of a box.The romaine lettuce, carrots and cabbage were crisp and tasted fresh. We bailed on the onions because as much as we love them, there is a time and a place for them and work is neither. We also ditched the cheese to cut back on the amount of fat, the salad was still awesome without it. The color of the tangy BBQ Ranch was a little freaky but it had a great smoky flavor to it. The chicken tasted like real grilled chicken which was a welcome relief from the processed chunks we're used to. Tasty to the last bite!
Score: 5 out of 5. We could eat this everyday!
