Review: This one's good all around - This is the best one so far, decent amount of a thick flavorful gravy with plenty of carrots and potatoes and actual pieces of real meat. A bit of fresh ground pepper is always good, and I like that this isn't salty either. Pair it up with your favorite bread, maybe a salad and you should feel like you had enough to eat. A word of warning regarding the containers for these meals - use a better microwavable container that has a vented lid because even if I cooked it in 30 sec intervals I think the concave bottom just builds up pressure until the whole dish basically explodes and it will do it more than once even after the microwave has stopped heating. No matter how well you vent it this will happen, potatoes have a role to play? I don't know just not willing to have to clean off enough of this meal from the roof and sides of the oven before I can eat it. Not willing to give up on the meal either, I like this one, used a paper bowl this time with a single half paper towel over it but will use another dish next time and will update. Another reviewer had the same thing happen to them and adjusting the power just uses same level of heat just cycles it on/off more or less times depending on choice. I think dish is to blame.

But, unbelievable as it may sound, the Chili Mac variety is now selling for the crazy amount of $25.79 for 1 (ONE) single box. You can see that the single box cover says it contains 7.5 ounces and the ad for Chili Mac says it costs $3.44 per ounce. 7.5 x 3.44 = $25.80. At least one buyer of the Chili Mac variety posted, on his review, that they received just 1 (ONE) box. Other varieties on the same page are obviously sold in sets of 6, as their photos specify they cost $0.22 and $0.31 per ounce each. By the way, none of the varieties I bought were even edible. They all tasted like cardboard. **Q: for a processed food, why are these so exorbitant in price?** A: I've always considered and thought of it as price goughing ? **Q: calorie count per hormel meal?** A: It depends on the meal. Beef pot roast is 200 calories. Meatloaf is 300 calories. The turkey is 280 calories. The stroganoff is 210. **Q: do you make turkey and mashed potatoes?** A: I'm aware of Turkey w/dressing only. There is Chicken w/mashed potatoes too. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This one's good all around *by S***D on January 27, 2025* This is the best one so far, decent amount of a thick flavorful gravy with plenty of carrots and potatoes and actual pieces of real meat.

If you like a quick easy to make meal you may want to try this beef pot roast. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ time saver *by E***L on May 4, 2026* Overall, this is a pretty convenient meal—just pop it in the microwave and it’s ready in about a minute, which is great when you don’t feel like cooking. The beef and gravy taste decent, kind of like a simple homemade pot roast, and the portion is enough for a quick meal. My main issue is with the potatoes. The texture is a bit off—they actually taste more like carrots than potatoes, which was kind of strange and not what I expected. Also, the whole dish is on the salty side, so if you prefer lighter flavors, it might be a bit much. ## Frequently Bought Together - HORMEL COMPLEATS Beef Pot Roast Microwave Tray, 9 Ounce (Pack of 6) - HORMEL COMPLEATS Turkey & Dressing Microwave Tray, 10 oz.
