I recently tried all of the Counter brand frozen meals that my Target had in stock. Out of the 4 different dishes, I'd rank this #3. It's decent but I wouldn't buy it again. The cumin was overpowering to the point of being the only flavor present - I'd even go so far as to call it a "Cumin Mac & Cheese Bowl" rather than Taco lol
Best version of Mac & Cheese ever

So delicious, 340 calories. The flavors are so yummy and vibrant. I tried also the one with jalapeños and bacon, but IMO this one is the best.
A tasty and easy treat!

I was shocked honestly. It tastes like something you make for yourself from one of those "easy to make high protein pasta" posts on Instagram. I loved it. My 9 year old son LOVED it. Thought it was the best thing ever. I am consistently impressed by Counter and their delicious, high protein options! Excited to try more things in the future!

I had low expections for a protein mac and cheese with ground beef- all dicey propositions for a frozen meal but I thought this was very tasty! It really tasted like a Factor meal (and those are much more expensive) and was pretty flavorful, kind of spicy, and the noodles don't get too mushy which also happens seldomly in frozen meals.
Very good & great macros!

I love how convenient it is, I used the oven to heat it up and it was insanely delicious. The best part is that it is low calories and high protein.

The lasagna surprised me. I expected the same old same old frozen dinner but the flavor was great and was even a smash with my kids! I appreciate the high protein as we are an athletic family and having high protein is important to everyone in my house.

Not macro friendly

1. It wasn’t lasagna, it was a meat sauce with a few rigatoni noodles sprinkled in 2. Far from macro friendly and just because a food contains protein doesn’t mean it can be considered “high protein”. Taste was good, but for the same calories I’d rather have actual lasagna and call it a day
