Flavorful and filling. The only downside is the falafel is not crispy because of the microwaving.

Sooo dang delicious. Add Harissa and just perfect. Could use a little bit more for proportion and of course would like more protein AND the fiber amount is INCREDIBLE!!

I definitely wanted more after I ate this one. It was so delicious! Thank you all for this meal. It has to be my favorite microwave pre-made meal, I don't normally get the microwave ones but I enjoyed this one. I will be getting again.

The rice blend was really nice with the cauliflower and falafel. There was something a little bitter in the sauce that I didn't care for, otherwise a good quick lunch.

This was pretty good! A little bit low on protein, though, I wish it had a bit more. The flavors were good, but there needed to be some texture I think. This isn't something I could eat over and over again.

I think if the falafel had some kind of sauce to dip it in - like tzatziki it would be much better

Good flavor but very small portions on these ready made meals. Beef it up a little more or lower the price
