Ping!!

Ready meals, or "ping" meals as some people call them, when the microwave has heated them, and it pings when they're ready.

I'm not asking whether or not you like ready meals, as I'm not a big fan either, I'm asking if there are any you actually LIKE.

Me? I like Morrison's Chicken Madras with Rice.

Re: Ping!!

Patsy, I think when you're used to cooking your own food, then micro meals are less appetizing. I put that curry in the oven. A ping meal, but I like it oven made.


I also like Birds Eye Chilli. I've just had that tonight as a speedy meal!!

If I buy a ready meal then I'd rather cook it in the oven. Probably pointless, but it makes me feel better. It's still a "ping" meal though

Mags, I'm the same. Then get a meal out of quickness and end up putting it in the oven anyway!

I agree if time is short 'ping meals' can be a boon for some people

Re: Ping!!
