Love all purple carrot meals
Purple carrot has become a staple in my freezer as I am plant-based and I find this flavor tasty, a unique combination, and the are great dinners for when you have no time.

Not sealed inside the box
I love this meal, however, it’s often not sealed inside the box and it’s a pain to go back and return. For some reason this only happens when I buy them at Target. So disappointing!

Changed recipe, reduced flavor, texture, and quality.
I used to love this and the udon noodles but sometime in the past 6 months they changed the recipe and they are just no where near as good. I can’t be convinced otherwise. They are just not the same.

Yummy Flavors
Out of the 3 Purple Carrot bowls available at my local Target, this was my favorite. The vegetables have a nice bite and taste fresh. I like the sauce, and the texture of the orzo. The meatballs are tasty. Good job on this one, PC!

Decent easy dinner option
Tastes pretty good! Gardein meatballs are my favorite meatless meatball option, which this product uses. I like that it has some veggies in it as well. My one complaint is that the sauce is too sweet for my liking. I’ll still continue to get this as an easy, night off from cooking option, but I would prefer less added sugar in the sauce, if they’re looking to improve this product.

Good protein and taste!
Good flavor. Good portion. Not too salty. 25% of daily sugar which could be better but for good proteins and taste, it’s a good meal option!

A daily staple
I absolutely love these frozen meals. I eat one for lunch at work most weekdays as part of my efforts to eat more veggies. Many frozen at this price point are simply rice, a little meat and a few veggies. Purple carrot has a lot of veggies and the recipes are varied in flavor - it keeps things fresh. The meatball Marinara is flavorful and filling. I would recommend this to all trying to have a few more veggies on their diet.

Great flavor
I love the flavor of this frozen meal but the texture of the meatballs was pretty bad. I’ll still give it another try and buy again

Damaged bowls
Tastes good but lately all of the bowls are smashed open, leaving a lot of the contents loose in the box.

No quality control
This meal used to be fantastic, but the quality is gone. The last few that I purchased had 3-4 peas but no other veggies. I emailed the company and never heard back. I will no longer be using this brand. Very disappointing.

YUM!
I've haven't eaten meat in years, but I've decided to go even further and dabble in the vegan food world, trying to see if I'm strong enough to give up that sweet sweet gooey delicious cheese I love. I've tried a few different plant-based bowls and this one is DELICIOUS. Gardein has a couple good-ish ones, but this is the first Purple Carrot I've tried and it's a 5/5 from me. I loved the texture and the lightly spicy sauce. I will most definitely get it again as well as try other PC products.

Delicious. Thanks for fixing the packaging issue
Delicious but expensive. So frequently losing most of the contents of the bowl, due to loose packaging, felt worse. Thanks for apparently making the bowl sturdier.

Yuck
Really really bad. Every ingredient tasted artificial and I’m not sure how that’s possible.

Better than Amy's
I switched over to these frozen meals after I found out how Amy's Kitchen is cruel to their employee's. I'm really happy that I switched. These taste better and healthier, IMO.

Yummy!
These are really yummy & filling. It paste (not rice). I usually add some extra fresh or frozen veggies to my frozen meals. I also added some shredded Parmesan (use vegan if you’re dairy free), garlic powder & red chili flakes. Delicious!
