I should try the eggplant though, sounds good with some extra spice added! They're great for taking on trips. I find them on sale at Henry's and stock up on a few at a time. My other favorite is Amy's vegan enchiladas, which I think tastes just like Trader Joe's Black Bean & Corn enchiladas. So yummy for "fast" food :)Rachelhttp://www.veggiebee.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2364183667091630765.post-62097419378594587732010-10-21T13:43:44.151-05:002010-10-21T13:43:44.151-05:00OH!

The spicy ones are quite awesome. We buy daiya and tofutti slices, better than cream cheese and veganaise. I guess those are more ingredients than "pre-packaged" foods.

That is the plus side to them not being very spicy; he claims not to like things too hot. ;-)<br /><br />We only buy them when they are on sale which usually means 2 for $4 or 2 for $5 here. Served over quinoa, rice, or bulgur, they do feed us both quite well, but I've been known to eat the whole box myself, too. :)Danahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00321227554669355784noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2364183667091630765.post-69398638673035499612010-10-20T07:51:57.206-05:002010-10-20T07:51:57.206-05:00Tasty Bite is great for backpacking!Tasty Bite is great for backpacking!Suzihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01054826234517836481noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2364183667091630765.post-57112852515462539062010-10-20T07:25:16.311-05:002010-10-20T07:25:16.311-05:00anything that needs a microwave is certainly not a...anything that needs a microwave is certainly not advised by me...but you know that ;)<br /><br />one time my gramma gave us a package of some sort of Tasty Bite chickpea product, and since we didn't wanna microwave it we just opened the package and ate it at room temperature. it was tasty, i must admit. but unlike you, i fully shun prepackaged foods and anything with a shelf life of more than a week.The Health Senseihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13296840039948289864noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2364183667091630765.post-52303794669108872562010-10-20T07:22:40.081-05:002010-10-20T07:22:40.081-05:00Someone actually gave us some Tasty Bite packages ...Someone actually gave us some Tasty Bite packages they bought - they tried one and didn't like it and handed it off to us.

And while they may be a bit pricier than homemade food, I pay around $2 for a box, and that's way cheaper (plus pita bread or naan) and stash them in my desk for when I didn't plan for lunch at work.
