A surprisingly good "box meal" May 7, 2008
Jacquelyn (Sacramento, CA United States)
In an effort to have something "quick and easy" on hand and as one who basically lives on white meat chicken, I tried this box mix not expecting much more than some flavored rice to accompany my otherwise boring white meat chicken. Since I often buy bulk boneless skinless chicken, frozen, it seems that I never have the forethought to defrost the chicken for a meal. However, I've found that while I cook the frozen chicken in a frying pan, just a tiny drop of oil, on low, it's like steaming the chicken...no additives, just plain chicken. While the chicken is "cooking" I prepare the box mix (without adding the chicken like the box says) - the simmer time on the mix is just about the same time it takes for the chicken to cook - I cube the chicken still in the cooking pan (to ensure it's fully cooked post freezer), toss it into the now finished box mix - saves lots of time as I never have anything defrosted when I need it :)
Like others, I have experimented and added frozen corn (much better than canned I've found) - now my staple in this "mix", plus I sometimes add shredded cheese atop it before serving. I've tried the diced tomatoes and peppers...not a big fan. I always top with a dab of sour cream.
The mix freezes very well and reheats with ease. I tend to add a sprinkling of water when microwaving for some extra moisture in the rice. A leftover favorite is a flour tortilla with the mix, sour cream and a dash of taco sauce.
Friends to whom I've served this mix have been shocked it was indeed a "mix" (that is, when I've confessed!)...not your typical flavorless or overpriced "helper mix"!
Mmmm! January 26, 2008

Just through basic experimenting, I've also found that adding diced up imitation crab to this 'box mix' creates a great recipe. I then like adding a little chopped up tomato, black beans, and guacamole.
It does not look like a lot from the box, but wow, a little bit of this dish really fills me up. It's definitely a good buy if you have to stretch a meal for a couple of days.
Easy meal to build on with own additions November 4, 2006

we use this as the base, then besides the chicken, we will also add pasta, spices, veggies, or whatever we have around to make quick cheesy meals
