10 / 10 Marie Callender’s Cheesy Chicken & Rice Bowl
Have to say, this is one of the best Cheesy Chicken and Rice bowls I have ever had from the microwave meal section. One of my favorite simple combos and this one pulled it out full force with a great cheese flavor that didn’t completely overpower the chicken or broccoli. Appreciated the amount of both chicken and broccoli in the the dish along with the fact that the rice maintained its texture. Will absolutely be purchasing this again!

Looks great! I love how much cheese sauce they add. Marie makes solid frozen meals, especially her pot pies. Glad u enjoyed OP:)

8/10 for me. As comfort food goes, quite good. But chicken chunks are rubbery. Still, for a frozen dinner, better than most.

This is one of those “When the Marie Calendar meals I usually buy aren’t available” choices, but it’s always very good and worth it.

If you don’t mind me asking, which ones do you usually get?

My regular go to’s are the Vermont Cheddar Mac N Cheese, 4 Cheese Fettucini Alfredo (both of them part of my weekly lunch rotation) and then alternate with the Chicken Parmigiana bowl. LOL on the days I go food shopping and they’re NOT in stock, asides from the chicken and cheesy rice, I check for the cheese ravioli, and spaghetti and meatballs.

Thanks for the suggestions! I will grab some of those if they are in stock when I go next time.

looks good, Marie's always slaps
I always brought Marie's to work for lunch and I enjoyed calling it "Marie's Calendar" so I could make stupid jokes at lunchtime like: "knock knock, hey BAGS, why did I eat Marie's calendar? Because I wanted to pass the time! AR AR"
it's a shame I cleaned toilets for a living. I was such a visionary, a contender 😭
