wal-mart chicken tikka masala

yes. i got a good chicken tikka masala at wal-mart. it was up in the deli-section. it's one of the offerings of a bunch of semi-tempting looking dishes called "marketside". i was sceptical, but seriously, there are no ethnic restaurants around in a good 1 1/2 hour radius. i dared to try. i haven't had much curry, so i am not an expert. maybe you'll try this and tell me what you think? i loved it! not too spicey, but my stomache is now experiencing a slow burn.:)

Ingredients: basmati rice, water, chicken tenders, potato, plain yogurt, onion, heavy whipping cream, tomato paste, oil blend, carrots, green peas, green beans, cultured dextrose, sea salt, garam masala spice blend, tandoori mix (spices, paprika, dehydrated onion and garlic, sea salt, tumeric), garlic, modified corn starch, cilantro, stabilizer (starch, carrageenan, potassium chloride, magnesium carbonate, sugar0, red curry paste (dried chili, garlic, lemongrass, salt, shallot, galangal, shrimp paste, kaffir lime peel, pepper), curry powder, chili powder, paprika, stabilizer (xanthan gum, guar gum), ginger, coriander, annatto, cloves, cinnamon

crazy! what lovely ingredients!!! 3 - 1 cup servings. per serving: 160 calories, 5 grams fat, 25% of your daily allowance of sodium (YIKES!), and 2 grams dietary fiber. very healthy, except for the sodium. i don't remember how much it cost. i will be buying it again. and again.
