Default REVIEW: Trader Joe's Chicken Chilaquiles

I'd never heard the term "chilaquiles" before.
Apparently, it's a synonym for bad nachos.

Most Trader Joe's house-branded products are
pretty darn good. Their frozen panini is far
better than the competition (but for some reason
it has been disappearing from the stores around
here). This one is an exception. It's crap.

Basically, it's soggy corn chips covered with
a flavorless chicken-and-chili sauce. Not much
chicken. It's almost like they said the word
"chicken" over the sauce and considered the job
done. At $4.29, it's one of their more expensive
forzen entrees, and despite that it's a terrible
value. For less money, I could have bought a bag
of their excellent chicken-cilantro wonton.

When I see a new TJ's item, I have to buy it just
to test it out. They got me once on this item.
Hopefully, I can dissuade you from making the
same mistake. My loss can be your profit.
