Good meal for taste and filling my belly!
I bought this on a whim. I was impressed with the flavor! When you stir everything together it has a delicious savory taste. It was good on its own, but I always add things to my food to up the flavor. I added some butter because butter goes great with grits. Then I added some shredded cheese. Game changer! I read some of the reviews and people act like they are expecting this dish to come from a five Star restaurant. This is an affordable meal that tastes good and is filling. I recommend it to try and ask people to lower their expectations. Thanks for the meal! I will be eating it again and trying some of the others

Tasty with a Little Kick
I bought several of these Dolly Parton Shrimp and Grits for quick lunches at work. They have tiny shrimp on a bed of cheese grits with a little kick of seasoning.

Tasty But Not All That The Picture Indicates
I bought this dinner at another retailer and although it really doesn't live up to the picture. It is non the less, very tasty. And it's good for the price.

Sabrosa (delicious). GF??
I would describe this dish as delicious home cooked that was frozen freshly....in other words not a frozen dinner that is all salt and carbs!! I am eating the last TBSp of grits and STILL have 6 medium to smaller shrimp. 4 stars cuz I am not a fan of spicy hot.....it is mild but I prefer no heat..... I will still eat again. I microwaved 6 min but next time I will heat the low recommendation next time cuz I may have overcooked the shrimp. I appreciate Dolly's pride in using quality ingredients I choose not to eat gluten. It is not labeled GF but I did not see wheat mentioned

Really good!
I have had Shrimp and Grits 3 times now and every time it was excellent. I don't know how grits are supposed to taste but these are amazing. The sauce is flavorful and the shrimp is tastey.

No substance to this. Maybe 2 shrimp- one piece of a tomato- ate like a soup. Very small portion- def not worth it

Dolly Parton's a Great Cook
Eat a lot of frozen meals and generally stick to one or two brands, but I bought this one because a) I love shrimp and grits, and b) I couldn't imagine the iconic Dolly Parton attaching her name to anything she didn't think was good. I've now bought this meal a couple of different times, and, while the overall visual presentation of it isn't consistently great, the flavors and satisfaction are consistently top-notch. In fact, I was very disappointed to find that there was only ONE left when I was at my local grocery store last time. I definitely bought it and will be buying many more in the future!

Not again
This was the absolute worst shrimp and grits I have ever tasted. I couldn't even finish the bowl. I'll never buy another "Dolly" food product.

desceiving
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Definately a single portion the taste wasn’t bad. A little hint of spice. Wish you could tone down that 1000 mg of sodium down but the biggest thing here is the way the picture on the box is not an inkling close to what it looks like. Very tiny shrimp underneath. The picture sells the product

Average shrimp & grits, will do in a pinch
This dinner (or breakfast actually) can’t compare to Iron Rooster, but if you’re looking for a quick and cheap shrimp and grits, it’ll do! The seasoning is a bit overpowering and my husband said he only tastes creole. All of that seasoning makes it hard to taste the grits which is an important part of a meal called shrimp AND GRITS. Despite my criticism, I finished the entire dish, so I’d call it a win.

Maaaannnn I'm not even going to lie.. THIS WAS GOOD! Cheesy grits, flavorful, with the sun-dried tomatoes. Just wish servings were larger.

Great food, wish there was a bigger portion
I bought this tonight because I love shrimp and had never had grits. Only wish that there was a jumbo size for us with big appetites, just an idea for you guys (I know that it would be double price)

A Comfort Meal with a Southern Twist
I like be that this tasty and filling meal has under 300 calories. Considering the difficulty at cooking grits to the right texture, I find the grits to be creamy, tasty, and a real comfort food.
