Tj's has quite a bit of refrigerated prepared foods.

 

I noticed that they have Turkey and Chicken ' Pot ' pies.

\

I decided to try the Turkey :  $ 6.99 I think

out of the box , ready for the CSO.  I used the box's times and temps on steam-bake

I added two minutes to the suggested time , as it wasn't really very brown.  one minuite might have been enough :

the crust didn't really suffer for the extra minute.

 

the gravy was OK , not gloppy or glue-like.  topping fine , plenty of turkey , but white meat not dark.

 

cornbread stuffing on the bottom also OK

 

over all I liked it , would have liked a little less salt , but what can you do ?

 

"" Less Salt !  Feel Free to Add Your Own @ Home "   

 

doesnt seem to have caught on .

 

too bad.

 

over all I liked this enough to get it again from time to time.

 

its probably better than other commercial brands ,  Fz or not.

 

I grew up having Swanson Pot Pies from time to time , and liked them way back when.

 

this version is generous in its quantity . and satisfies when one might want a " Turkey dinner "

 

but not want to make the dinner yourself.

 

nice w M.R. or two.
