Crock-Pot® Cuisine: Creole-Style Andouille Sausage and Chicken {Review} #crockpotcuisine

Disclosure:  I received the products below to review and compensation in exchange for sharing my honest opinion.

Wouldn’t be it be great if there was all-natural frozen meals designed to just throw in a slow cooker and forget about them?  Well now there is thanks to Crock-Pot!

Crock-Pot® Cuisine are All Natural Chef Inspired Slow Cooker Meals that are actually delivered right to your door!  You cannot buy these meals at your local grocery store, which is a shame because seriously they are amazing!  I got the chance to try four of the Crock-Pot Cuisine meals and they have all been absolutely delicious!  Now I will say they are designed to be four servings but my husband and I pretty much have eaten the whole box in one sitting, they are that good!  I think you could stretch four meals out of it if you served up a side with it like salad or bread, but so far I have just made the meals themselves.  These are seriously the best frozen meals I have ever tasted!  The ingrediants are all-natural and actual ones you can pronounce along with some spices.  I am not one to pay much attention to ingrediants, but I do like that this one contains natural ones instead of crazy long strange ingrediants.  There are no added preservatives or artificial ingredients.  Each meal kit contains, on average, approximately 500 calories per serving for a total of approximately 2,000 calories for all four servings.

So what does it look like and how does it taste?

The Creole-Style Andouille Sausage and Chicken was delicious and not processed tasting or hard.  I was worried because I don’t like anything spicy, but this was the right kind of spicy!  The combination of the chicken and sausage was perfect as well, totally not something I would have ever made myself but I enjoyed eating!  My husband was super impressed as he is a big meat guy and loved the different meats, he wants it again now with the added shrimp like the Chef’s Tips suggest!

Now what is the catch?  Well they are a little expensive, ranging from $19.99-$23.99 depending on your subscription or whether you order just a one-time order.  I’d recommend the Cuisine Rewards Club subscription which is only $19.99 per meal and you receive a free 4-qt. slow cooker!  You can cancel anytime so its worth trying it and saving the extra money!  Right now there are only six meals to choose from but there are four more meals coming soon.  Even my husband who is usually picky when it comes to frozen foods loved all four that we tried.  For me, I love the ease of cooking it, just toss 1-2 of the bags in and then 30 minutes prior to cooking you usually have to toss in last 1-2 bags.  Everything is labeled and there is nothing you need to add except water.  This would actually be an amazing present for someone since you could order it and ship it right to their home.  When received the meals just need to be thrown in the freezer, no defrosting either required!

I seriously could go on and on about how much we loved these meals.  I am actually going to continue to order these meals because they are great to have on hand for those days when you just don’t want the same ole’ same ole’ meals, they just require at least four hours of cooking.

BUY IT:  Visit the Crock-Pot Cuisine website to order your own chef-inspired meal kits and in 4 or 8 hours you’ll have an amazing dinner for your family.  Right now they have some amazing specials as well and you can cancel your subscription anytime!
