Swanson Chicken Pot Pie Review

Health Factor
Swanson Chicken Pot Pie has a lot of calories and a significant amount of saturated fat. These factors may have influenced my decision when preparing this frozen food product at first. However, I did not pay attention to the nutritional information before trying it. Swanson Chicken Pot Pie also appears to have a lot of sodium. It is not one of the healthiest food choices available. This frozen food product has a lot of Vitamin A, Protein and Iron. However, these nutritional benefits may not be enough to offset the unhealthy factors that are worth considering before purchasing and eating a Swanson Chicken Pot Pie. This may be even more important when deciding on whether or not to serve the chicken pot pie to children.

Quality
Swanson Chicken Pot Pie can be prepared in a conventional oven or in a microwave. These flexible options make it easy to have something to eat under various circumstances. The microwaveable option seems to fit busy lifestyles while oven preparation can be adequate for men and women who have more spare time. Despite the additional wait time, I have noticed that Swanson Chicken Pot Pie comes out in much better quality when prepared in a conventional oven. The crust cooks much faster than other areas of this frozen food product. Therefore, it is best to monitor Swanson Chicken Pot Pies when preparing them in a conventional oven.

In time, the outer crust can start to get too hard and may even burn. This does not fare well when it comes down to actually eating the Swanson Chicken Pot Pie. It contains chicken, peas, carrots and potatoes inside of a pie crust. The chicken and vegetables are plentiful, although the size of one Swanson Chicken Pot Pie may not be enough for adults with large appetites. However, one of these chicken pot pies would be sufficient for children. While the food content was satisfying, I was not impressed by the broth in Swanson Chicken Pot Pies. It was too watery, bringing down the overall quality of this frozen food product.

Price
You can find Swanson Chicken Pot Pie inexpensively at many grocery stores. This frozen food product is on sale frequently. It has been easy to stack up on Swanson Chicken Pot Pies for an entire month. They cost less than $3, which fits right into small grocery shopping budgets. Swanson Chicken Pot Pie is priced well enough to be purchased as a cheap lunch during weekdays.

Taste Test
All of the content included with Swanson Chicken Pot Pie is tasty. The carrots and peas can be too soft at times, but still add a good amount of flavor to this frozen food product. It is not unusual to want a second Swanson Chicken Pot Pie after eating one. The broth even tastes good, although it is watery. However, it would not be best to consider this a perfect chicken pot pie. For many women and men, Swanson Chicken Pot Pies will not beat out homemade versions in the tasting category.

Verdict
Swanson Chicken Pot Pie is a good frozen food product to buy when shopping on a small budget. The top and bottom crust is adequate but the outer edges can burn if you do not pay close attention to it. Swanson Chicken Pot Pie contains lots of food that tastes good. It remains hot for a hefty amount of time once preparation has ended. Adults who are looking for an inexpensive way to enjoy a warm chicken pot pie can find solace in the Swanson brand. It would be important to keep in mind that this frozen food product is loaded with saturated fat and a significant amount of cholesterol.
