2010 Menu #24 - Buffalo Chicken
Posted: Sat May 14, 2011 3:43 pm
I was hungry for buffalo chicken today, so I broke out one of my new 2010 MREs.
Lots of goodness inside...
I boiled a pot of water with the fried rice and buffalo chicken packs in it... This actually gave the rice a nice consitency after stiring.
The buffalo chicken is spicy, but a sweet kind of spicy... I liked it a lot. I'm still trying to figure out why most of the MRE sauces taste similar.
I first tried the chicken with some of the wheat snack bread, but wasn't thrilled with the bread, so I put it on a few tortillas I had. I'm glad they added them to the 2011 production as that is a much better pairing. I later upscaled it with some blue cheese.
The fried rice was, well, interesting... It wasn't bad... You could taste the hint of soy in there. The consistency was quite sticky. I was surprised to see some peas in there as well. Once again, if I was out in the woods, I think I would have eaten it all.
Over all, it was an enjoyable meal. The patriotic cookies are quite good! I put the rest of the goodies aside for consuption later.
Some close ups:
