What You Should Know

You'd spot this in the frozen food aisle as a single-serve, grab-and-heat pot pie—an easy option for a quick solo meal, cozy night in, or lunch at work. It feels comforting and slightly nostalgic (classic broccoli-and-cheese pot pie comfort) while marketing organic ingredients to feel 'wholesome.' The flaky crust and creamy filling come from an industrially assembled, ready-to-heat formulation using refined flours and added oils, which are hallmarks of more highly processed products.

Common Questions about Broccoli And Cheese Pot Pie, 7.5 OZ

Well, 'healthy' can be a bit subjective, right? This pot pie offers a solid dose of protein and fiber thanks to the broccoli and potatoes, making it a filling option for a quick meal. However, with 460 calories and 24 grams of fat per serving, it’s definitely more of a comfort food than a salad. It's great for a cozy night in but maybe not your go-to for a daily meal.
