They had a nice texture and the ingredients are not too bad. They&#8217;re made with beef and pork, vegetable and soy protein and herbs and spices.  If the dish was just the meatballs, I might buy it again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But it wasn&#8217;t, it came with mediocre noodles (I mean, that&#8217;s all you can expect) and a completely insipid sauce.  It&#8217;s really amazing how you can make a sauce and have it have absolutely no flavor.  I really don&#8217;t understand it.  Maybe the dish is directed to people who have COVID and never regained their taste buds, but it&#8217;s the definition of insipid.  If you&#8217;re going to consume 520 calories and 22 grams of fat, you should at least get some flavor out of it.<br><br>And this has been my last experiment with Boston Market.  If they couldn&#8217;t get either dish I tried right, I&#8217;m done with them. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>blah, blah, blah Swedish Meatballs was the second Boston Market frozen entree I bought when these were on sale last week.
