It’s rare to see coconut in the freezer aisle. The coconut dishes we have sampled have been amazing; we loved Trader Joe’s Coconut Milk Jackfruit Curry, and the coconut-flavored Sweet Earth Curry Tiger is absolutely delicious. We couldn’t help but be excited when we saw the Lean Cuisine Coconut Chickpea Curry.
Like most Lean Cuisine dishes, this meal is fast and easy to prepare. While some curry dishes have a strong scent, the smells from this curry aren’t overpowering. You should be able to cook it in a work microwave without any issues.
As for the flavor, this curry has a wonderful blend of sweet and spicy ingredients. The heat from this meal isn’t overpowering, especially if you’re accustomed to this kind of cuisine, and the coconut milk helps to cut through some of the spicinesses. The chickpeas have a nice, slightly crunchy texture to them, and they blend in very well with the curry sauce. Vegetables like peas and carrots finish off this flavorful meal.
This dish is high in sodium, but aside from that, it’s fairly healthy. Even though the meal has 11 grams of protein, there are only 260 calories, which means it’s a diet-friendly lunch. The meal is also rich in nutrients like iron and potassium.
If you love coconut as much as we do, you’ll definitely want to give the Lean Cuisine Coconut Chickpea Curry a try. It’s an unusual, delicious meal that’s a lot of fun to eat. We hope we keep on seeing more coconut dishes in the freezer aisle!
