Surprisingly Amazing! Ratatouille bites are great!
Not going to lie, I put off trying these for about a month. Was one of the first things I got when starting reviews since it seemed so different. Maybe….too different? Crispy veggies just didn’t seem like they would taste great, and these sat in the freezer waiting. My son was sick and wanted to keep up with writing so they finally got their chance—and why did I wait! There so much better then expected! The fact that these are mostly veggies but still taste like an appetizer you’d want to eat at a party is insane. Didn’t think they’d work—but they do.
400 calories for the entire box has stars in my eyes. You can eat the whoooooollllllleeee box and not feel bad! Add eggplant, zucchini, and bell peppers as some of the main ingredients while tasting great? You have a winner! Always looking for ways to eat better while still enjoying life, having these as a go to for a party and knowing they wont crush your diet is great. They come in their own cut little spots wrapped in plastic, and to try them out I air fried. All you need to do is put them on the tray and cook at 35 for 6 to 8 minuets, I did 7 and they were perfect. If you don’t have an airfryer you can use your oven, probably just as great there.
They come out amazingly crispy but are soft and slightly juicy on the inside. Not to the to the point that they spurt or are soggy, just enough to almost have a dipping sauce without dipping. The tomato really shines there even though it’s not a top ingredient. My son even ate one and he’s currently in the all veggies are bad stage. You really wouldn’t know your eating almost all vegetables. Let them cool for a little longer then the recommended time, I’d say 5-8 to let them cool and harden. If you try them too soon the outside kinda smushes and the inside is way to hot like a pizza roll.
I tried them too fast and as you can see a little smushy lol. Luckily once cooled there sized to be a single bite, maybe two—and are so good it’ll be gone before you look. If you do you can actually see the vegetables which is a huge plus. So many things say their veggieful but are pureed to unrecognizable and leave you questioning. For a frozen food these feel fresh, have a great taste, and are so worth the calories. 8/10 and should have tried them sooner! Will be buying these again and might be a staple for party apps, a safe haven for calories watching.
