The healthiest microwave ready meal revealed
Microwave meals get a bad rap.
That's because often they're crammed full of added sugar and salt as well as being light on whole foods.
As much as you love that soup of Korma sauce, it's not exactly full off nutrients.
However, there are those moments when you simply don't have time to cook – you've just got back from the gym or a late shift at work – and you need something that's ready in the press of a button.
The Women's Health food awards asked five food experts, from nutritionists to registered dieticians, to judge the best microwave meals out there.
And the winner was: Tesco's Beautifully balanced Thai Red Curry which you can pick up for £3.
Rob Hobson describes the meal, coming in at 373 calories, as 'a tasty and nutritious meal that delivers on protein and fibre, while staying low in salt.'
While the Tesco website describes it as: 'Marinated chicken breast pieces in a red Thai curry sauce with green beans, babycorn, red peppers, soya beans and jasmine rice with quinoa.'
Sounds good and, most importantly, easy!
