Amy’s Tortilla Casserole with Black Beans

I thought the Tortilla Casserole was going to taste like the Mexican Lasagna from Park and Orchard. Not even close. I actually did not like this at all. The tortilla chips did not microwave well, and the beans didn’t taste good either. It is overall a bad product. Maybe that is why I can’t seem to find out any information about it on Amy’s website.

Maybe they pulled it off their active line. Amy does have new products out like oatmeal and low sodium meals. Hope we can try those soon.

Amy’s Indian Samosa Wraps

amys indian somosa wraps

These are the best samosas I have ever had and I’ll tell you why. These aren’t purely a carb product anymore. They are not greasy and have tofu in the mix as well. Samosas are my favorite Indian appetizer, but usually it is so heavy and not worth ordering. Amy makes these small wraps that cook up nicely and taste very authentic. The vegan spices are well balanced.

These wraps are high in sodium, decent fiber content and a good protein source. Great for lunch or dinner, Amy has another hit!

    Lightlife Smart Tortilla Wrap - Chick’n Ranchero Review

    Lightlife makes vegan and vegetarian alternative meat products. We’ve reviewed many Lightlife products before, but never the Ranchero burrito. Made to fill you up without making you sick, this 300 calorie frozen burrito heats up in the microwave in the wrapper it’s shipped in, contains 15 grams of protein, 1 little gram of fat and is 100% vegan. It does contain soy and wheat.

    Lightlife Smart Tortilla

    The taste is really the important part though. I’d classify this as boring; it smells better than it tastes and needs some sort of flavor. My opinion is unfavorable. The only reason I enjoyed this frozen product was for the nutritional value. It lacked a lot of flavor, and I covered it with Tabasco sauce.

    The protein boost was refreshing though. I’ve enjoyed other Lightlife products, click here to read those reviews. This one disappointed me, but remember this is just one vegetarian’s opinion.
