I bought a couple of these meals to divide between four people. They’re easy to cook in the oven or microwave from frozen. For best results you’re advised to cook it in the oven, which I did.

Still frozen

It smells heavenly as it's cooking and we couldn't wait to taste it. Each pack contains two decent sized chicken portions together with penne pasta in a delicious, creamy mushroom sauce. Although I don’t generally eat pasta dishes, I did try some of this found the taste exceptionally good. It’s very rich and flavoursome with garlic, onion, mustard and peppers all contributing to the overall flavour.

After cooking

It definitely has a more grown up taste and it’s easy to see why this meal has been given the status of ‘Signature Dish’. It went down well with everyone in my family apart from my youngest, who at 8 years old, would happily live on pasta if she could. But the flavour on this dish was a bit too strong for her.

You can find Weight Watchers from Heinz in the freezer cabinets in larger supermarkets.
