I no longer make my own turkey gravy - too much fat, too much fuss. I've been using Knorr gravy and sauce mixes for years now. Low in fat (for some sauces I use non-fat milk and don't add butter) and easy to use. I prefer making it on the stove top instead of the microwave.

Hormel Ham Salad Lunch Kit, 4.73-Ounce Kits (Pack of 12) Review

Hormel Ham Salad Lunch Kit, 4.73-Ounce Kits (Pack of 12)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
The Hormel Ham salad kit is just like all the other lunch "kits" out there. It includes a "mixing cup", spoon, sweet relish, light mayo, crackers and of course ham.
Upon first opening the can of ham, I was a little disappointed to see that the meat had the consistency of SPAM, but as I chopped it up in the cup, the ham texture we're all familiar with became apparent and the stand-alone taste and texture were actually better than I expected. But even with that, adding the relish and the light mayo didn't add too much to the "salad". It was a tasty snack, but nothing to go wow over. For those of us from the old school days of Vienna sausage and canned ham spreads, though, this is a major upgrade.
The crackers were the biggest surprise of all as they weren't your typical butter Ritz-type crackers, but delicious, seasoned crackers that added to the overall taste of the salad.
Positives:
Ham has a good flavor and texture
Kit is convenient and lightweight
Makes a good snack
Negatives:
A bit pricey coming from Amazon. At the time I purchased this with "Prime" shipping, the cost was still around $2.25 per unit. Considering you can get a decent burger for the same price, the only saving grace with this product is it's handy if you can't make a run for the drive-thru.
Small portion. This kit should really be called a "snack kit". You'll definitely want to offset it with fruit or a cup of soup, which only increase the overall price of your lunch. Not very economical if you're trying to pinch pennies by not going out to lunch.
The spoon is tiny, too tiny to really chop up all that ham goodness, leaving the chunks too big for a well-blended salad. So if you can grab some standard size plasticware, do so before sitting down to lunch.
Breakroom factor. If you're purchasing this because your co-workers are complaining about the smell of your tuna lunch-kit, this really isn't all that much better as the ham has a pretty strong scent that may be unpleasant for some. It wasn't for me.
Overall
Would I purchase it again? Sure. I love ham and it helps with the ham cravings I occasionally get between Easter and Thanksgiving.

i love salt but these r very salty and very very strong in flavor! I use these but i add regular bread crumbs or plain panko to the other flavors VERY STRONG and a bit on the salty side, this coming from someone who loves salt. (I like to add salt to my food I don't like when it is salty to begin with). The regular panko is great and i would order that in the future but not the already flavored ones (way to strong, especially the mustard) the garlic one is ok, I also added regular to that one and it was acutally pretty good, I could have added my own powdered garlic and italian seasoning to regular panko to get the same effect.

I first met this product as an overstocked item in a local 99-cent store, which subsequently folded its tent. Was delighted to finally find it at Amazon. Love the stuff, especially for fish. Most citrus marinades are skimpy on the lemon or lime flavor; definitely not Consorzio. I even use this on fruit concoctions.

I slice boneless skinless chicken breast flat wise into about 1/2 inch fillets and perforate with a knife, and freeze in 1 qt freezer bags, with some dressing poured in with the chicken, then after thawing, grille quickly over a very hot grille, only enough to cook, without drying out the chicken, makes a very tasty grilled chicken. Can top the grilled chicken with a little dressing before serving if desired.

For some reason it is hard to find the Uncle Ben's Original. This is just as good, but a bit different in flavor, and reasonably priced. Just wish the packaged rice makers would lay off the insane amount of salt. I only used packed rice boxes if I am in a real hurry. Usually make my own, much less expensive.
The secret to making your own rice like this is plenty of dried parsely and garlic. Heck of allot cheaper and no hypertension salt.

Average Reviews:

I have a high opinion of other TastyBite foods and I enjoy Thai food so I thought I'd give this a try. It is very bad. The sauce contains green beans, baby corn and potatoes. Unfortunately, the flavor of the baby corn overpowers everything, including the relatively bland flavor of the curry, making the whole dish very unappetizing. I bought a 6-pack from amazon and after having consumed two I am considering just throwing out the rest. I'll never eat them unless there is no other option.
Bombay Potatoes and Jaipur Vegetables are great! But the Yellow Curry Vegetables are better done without.

I bought this sauce at a local asian food store. I brought it home and used it to make Kung Pao chicken. However, it had so much vinegar and salt there really wasn't a taste. I also bought a Peanut Sauce from Dynasty, which tasted almost the same as the Kung Pao sauce because again, there was an extreme abundance of vinegar and salt. Do not buy this product if you actually like good Chinese food. Hell, even if you like bad Chinese food, you could probably find a better sauce.

I started buying this product for my rescue kitty after the Iams recall, due to finding melamine in the wheat gluten of some of their wet food products. My veterinarian, and I, believe cats need a balanced diet of wet & dry foods, but to my surprise MANY wet cat foods contain wheat gluten. Sheba is one of few brands that does not . . . read the label . . it's all meat with a tapioca filler; tapioca is typically derived from rice. My baby girl will be five-years-old this year and she LOVES her Sheba!!! She gets one dome-can for dinner, and 1/2 cup high-quality dry kibble Hill's Science Diet Adult Indoor Cat Food for breakfast.

I sampled the marinade at St. Jean winery in CA, bought a bottle ($1 more than at Amazon), and intended to make the chicken salad recipe on the label of the marinade. Eventually I asked my friend Jean, an excellent cook, to make the chicken salad for me. She doubled the recipe, and followed the directions on the bottle exactly. We both thought the result was fabulous. I'll buy it again even though it's on the expensive side. The chicken salad was terrific. It is definitely worthy of serving to company.
