Hormel Compleats Beef Steak Tips with Mash Potatoes, 9-Ounce Microwavable Bowls (Pack of 6)

These Compleats meals are absolutely delicious. They are a hearty meal for one at lunchtime. I fully endorse this product and will continue to enjoy all the different variations in this series.

Very poor quality and not inexpensive

I purchased the pot roast and chicken rice for my 86 year old mother who is trying to remain independent and make her own meals. My expectations were not that high and I wasn’t disappointed there. While the pot roast itself tasted good, there was way too much gravy for the little bit of beef and little bit of mashed potatoes that you get and the mashed potatoes were like concrete. The chicken rice doesn’t have nearly as many carrots in it as pictured on the packaging and both were way too salty. I did add some garlic powder and Cayenne pepper to make it a little more palatable and that improves the taste but there was no way I was going to give them to her with the high salt content. As far as the amount of food you get, it was perfect for her. She eats very tiny meals and often doesn’t finish them, putting the leftovers in the refrigerator and forgetting them in there where they become a green fuzzy lab experiment. She would actually eat all of this Because the amount is just right. For a person with a normal appetite, they might wind up eating one and a half to two of these to be satiated. I don’t understand how they can call these Compleats when they’re not a complete meal. There’s barely any vegetables in the chicken rice and none at all in the pot roast unless you count potatoes as a veg. No shade if you love these, but we need something better. Back to the drawing board.

I will say for convenience sake they are palatable and somewhat tasty but they have very very little beef in them which is disappointing. But for the price paid they are adequate only because of the convenience. If they had a little more beef in them I would be 100% totally happy

Good price. Convenient. Not my favorite but I wanted mashed potatoes. The meatloaf is kinda mushy but it's not too bad. I'll buy again. Going to buy the spaghetti (which I do like) next time & alternate.
