Meh

I got to try this free from FamilyRated. This one we weren't too sure about. My daughter loved it but my other two did not. As for me and the hubby we were on the fence about this as we are not too big on quinoa other then that the taste was great.

Alright, but not great

I generally like Sidekicks, and love that they are trying to encourage people to make this into a full meal. This though, I found missed the mark. The portion was small, and it was very salty. I think there are other Sidekicks that are already available in the market that can be expanded into a meal that is a lot more satisfying than this one. I ended up just eating the steak and veggies out of it, because the quinoa (and I love quinoa, so this broke my heart) just absorbed all the salt. If they cut the sodium in this, this would be a nice meal, but it was a breaking point for me.

Not a fan

I love Knorr and the various tasty options they offer, but the Steak and Peppers Briwn rice and quinoa did not taste good at all. Even with added ingredients it simply did not enhance the flavours. It was bland and the texture was not desirable. I was kinda bummed about this as it looked so enticing. Still love Knorr just not this one.

Easy dinner solution

Knorr One Skillet Meal- Steak & Peppers Brown Rice and Quinoa seem like a very difficult meal at the beginning. But actually it is quite an easy dinner.
You need olive oil, water,meat and veggies and voila.
I was nicely surprised that preparing package content took exactly 22 minutes as indicated, just needed a liitle more water.
It was tasty and a little salty. But I also added some steak spice to meat so next time I will skip this step for sure.
Overall a great dinner solution!

Brown rice and quinoa that tastes amazing!

The brown rice and quinoa was actually one of my favorite out of the 3 skillet meals that I tried for free. It was easy to make and didn’t require me to add much seasoning. I normally dislike brown rice and quinoa since I find the taste quite bland. With the Knorr’s ready made packets, the seasoning included was perfect and I could just add any protein of my choice to it. The seasoning gave it so much flavor that I am starting to not mind eating brown rice and quinoa. I did overcook and burnt the brown rice/quinoa a bit as I left it on the stove top too long, but that actually gave it a really nice flavor. I think this would be a really simple and healthy meal for after work. While the rice is cooking, you can easily be making other dishes to go with the meal.

Hearty and Delicious!

I received this product for free to try and boy am I glad I did. It was delicious and incredibly filling. Dinner was ready in about 25 minutes, which is great for our busy family. It was also very affordable and there was enough for four of us to have a good sized portion - no one was left feeling hungry. It was very hearty and will definitely be added to my list of comfort foods. It's a great addition to our rotation of meals and so easy to make. I would definitely recommend this and would by again.

Grateful for the chance, but not a fan

I was very grateful to receive three Knorr products including this Knorr One Skillet Meal free from Family Rated in exchange for my honest opinion #gotitfree

Unfortunately whether through the way I made it or the directions/ingredients of the product, the rice and quinoa tasted both undercooked and burnt :(. I think using milk instead of water would have made for a tastier, thicker formula. I had never purchased steak strips before so I'm glad that testing these also made me try something new! I would be willing to try it again with milk or more water or perhaps in a different pan because I love quinoa, rice, and steak, and appreciate the concept of a one skillet meal as I don't have a lot of time to cook.
I personally wouldn't recommend it but it could be a cooking error or a water vs. milk error that caused the problems, so I'm looking forward to reading other reviews.

Makes a delicious side!

I really didn't think I would love this but I did! I didn't add steak but made it as a side for my chicken and it was delicious! I would definitly buy it!

Great Weeknight Meal

Weeknights are always rushed for us. I was excited to try this meal out. I added beef, onions, garlic, pepper, and chard. Amazing! There was no leftovers

Another miss

I got this for free to try.

I'm disappointed in Knorr's newest offerings. This is the 3rd sample I received and my family and I did not enjoy any of them. I don't deviate from the instructions when I'm cooking something for the first time, but I kind of wished I had. The texture of the grains were all wrong so my family ended up eating around them to get to the meat and vegetables.
