Parent Panel review by Paula - review date 30 November 2007
Millie can be a little fussy when it comes to food but boy did she love these fresh pasta meals! They come wrapped up in special packaging to ensure the freshness of the ingredients is kept safely locked in. And the best thing about these meals is that you can taste the freshness when its cooked (a rareity I find with most children's food, esp non-organic). Millie tried the creamy salmon pasta and Jolly Spag bolly - eating most of not all of both dishes. I tried them too and thought they tasted better than some adult meals - again a rareity with kids meals. The major downside is the price. At £3.20 for a single meal, there won't be many parents willing to buy lots of these (though you could order a few every 3-4 months as they are stored in the freezer and therefore, keep for longer). I guess it really depends on what food your toddler enjoys and whether or not you can be bothered to cook lavishly homemade meals every night of the week! We'll definitely be ordering more of these...

Best Feature: Quality ingredients and fun names!
Worst Feature: The price
Verdict: Great for food conscious parents

"Homemade-esque food in an instant!"
My son (and I) loved these meals. The flavours are delicious yet there's no added ingredients and nasty sugary substances to give them their flavour.

Our fave was the creamy salmon pasta and ali baba's shepherd's pie..not exactly a snip at £3.20 each but thoroughly worth it if you're not planning to cook and want to give your child a nice fuss-free dinner.

Preparation is easy, simply take out the freezer and bung in the microwave.

Next on our list is the treasure island chicken and beefy burgers...yummo.
