Product review: Trader Joe's Indian Fare Pav Bhaji

I've been meaning to tell you about this one for awhile. TJ's Pav Bhaji was unexpectedly delightful. It's a blend of potatoes, tomatoes, and other diced vegetables. They're all stewed together and cooked down to a porridge-like consistency. I didn't think it would be that great, but I enjoyed it so much that I'm considering subsisting only on Pav Baji until I leave for Nicaragua. You'd think that all the veggies would make it low fat and healthy, perhaps even a strong choice for dieters, but somehow it manages to have a whopping 18 grams of fat per packet. Still, it tastes good enough that I don't care. At $1.99, this is the ideal pre-made dish to accompany the frozen naan that I blogged of last week.
