, although you can still snack in moderation on the Weight Watchers plan). The Weight Watchers Beef Hotpot sounded ideal. It was described on the box as "lean minced beef with peas and carrots, cooked in a rich red wine gravy, served with crisp potato scallops". Sounds like a pretty delicious, filling meal to me... so in the trolley it went.
Feeling a bit hungry one day last week and having about half an hour to grab something, cook it and eat it, I scoured the freezer. I wouldn't have chance to eat again for a while so thought now was a good time to try out this meal and hope it was as filling as I thought it would be. I popped it in the microwave - recommended times are 7 minutes 30 (750W) or 7 minutes (850W). My microwave is slightly more powerful, so I set the timer to 6 minutes 30. When the meal is cooked, it is recommended that you ...

The problem
The problem that I have always found is that meals which boast of being healthy for you, are normally on the tasteless side and not that appealing to the tastebuds.

The frozen meal can be cooked straight from frozen, it can be cooked in the oven for 40 - 45 minutes or microwaved for approximately seven minutes.
If you are a weightwachers member you will understand the Points system, and the Beef Hotpot is 3.5 points, if you are not a member this meal is only 209 calories and contains only 1.4g salt ( adults recommended daily intake is 6g). It also contains less than 3% fat.
It is an average portion at 320g and comes in the usual plastic microwavable dish with removable cling film lid, which needs to be removed to cook.
It contains scalloped potaotes, beef, carrots and peas in a rich beef creamy gravy.
When I eat mine I usually have it with a very large mixed salad, so ...
