Huel Hot and Savory Cups | Cajun Pasta | 25g Protein Plant Based Instant Meal | 27 Vitamins and Minerals | 100% Nutritionally Complete | 8 Cups

Okay so it is good but don't follow the instructions for cooking or else it has the texture of cardboard.Cook it for one min - stir well there is cheesy flavor that gets collected at the bottom so stir it really good- put it back in the micro for three mins- stir again- one min then stirr again LET IT SIT FOR 5 MINSSO basically cook it really well and stir it really well. This flavor is SPICY but it grew on me

I was pleasantly surprised by the serving size of the Chick’n & Mushroom Huel Hot & Savory cup. For a 400-calorie meal, I wasn’t expecting it to be this filling. It definitely satisfied my hunger and didn’t feel like a “diet meal” at all.That said, the cooking instructions seem a little off. The label says to fill with water to the line, microwave for 1 minute, stir, then heat for another 30 seconds and let it sit for 5 minutes. I followed that exactly, but the noodles were still a bit crunchy and the texture hadn’t thickened much.Here’s what worked better for me:Microwave for 1.5 minutes, stir, then heat for another 1.5 minutes, and then let it sit for 5 minutes. After that, the noodles were soft and the consistency was spot on.As far as taste goes, it’s not gourmet—but that’s not the point. This is a healthy, plant-based convenience meal, and for what it is, it delivers. It’s quick, balanced, guilt-free, and genuinely satisfying.I’ll definitely be ordering again and trying other flavors. Overall, I’m happy with these meals—they make eating clean a lot easier.

Mehh. I love the nutritional value. But the taste isn't quite there. Same with any of huel's hot & savories, you should expect a little grittiness, since they're packing it with vitamins, mineral & protein. The cajun seasoning just doesn't do it for me- a bitter aftertaste with no texture. Sticking with chickin & mushroom, that one taste much better.

This is pretty good as a blank slate. I add healthy amounts of garlic, ginger, red pepper flakes, and a bit of extra sauce to make it more flavorful. It’s a decent base to throw some vegetables and other garnishes. After that, it doesn’t taste like health food at all and is very satisfying.It’s not great if you don’t add anything to it. I wouldn’t eat it on its own unless I’m backpacking or something. I got this with the understanding that it’s a base layer to add to, and it’s helping me to overcome my unhealthy noodle addiction. Job well done, Huel!

This is a terrible cup of soup. First of all, the cup is far too thin in thickness and when you fill it with hot water, you will burn your hand picking it up. Secondly, the chicken flavored I got had miniscule freeze dried chicken particles that tasted like cardboard. Not only is that bad enough, but the ‘flavor’ powder that was on top of the mess, was so diluted and bland, it tasted like I was drinking bathwater. What a failure and disappointment this was is hard to state, suffice it to say I’ll not buy this weak mess again.

The taste is okay. As someone who lives in Louisiana and eats lots of cajun food, the flavor is bearable but I felt like I had to add a lot more seasoning to make it taste better. It’s not super spicy which I do like. The biggest downside is even after following the cooking directions a lot of the pasta still ends up crunchy which is not great. Felt like it needed more water than what the directions said to add. It does seem pretty pricy for the small serving size and lack of good flavor.

Very good if you know what to expect. It doesn't have a crazy amount of flavor like most noodle cups but you normally sacrifice flavor for health based products. There is less sodium in this cup, less sugar, and about 20% of your daily vitamin needs, you normally do not see that in traditional noodle cups.It tastes and smells good, the texture is different but that's to be expected with plant based pasta. After I finished the cup, I was pleasantly full and didn't feel like I ate a pound of sodium. Well worth the price in my opinion.

I'm giving these 5 stars because they are a good option if you're looking for healthier meals and it's very easy to make. I added water and stirred it up a bit before microwaving to ensure everything was properly suspended in the water, past that following the directions had great results.As far as taste, if you dislike peas you probably won't like this very much as you can taste the pea protein. For me, this was actually pretty good, it's got a bit of kick to it and I like peas so that was fine. Texture was pretty good as well to me; the water and seasoning thickens into a sauce and the noodles were soft but not mushy. I'm not sure what the bigger chunks are, I believe it's the pea and faba bean textured protein, but they didn't really add much of a texture to this and did not bother me.Overall, while I wouldn't eat this for every meal, I like to have it as an option, I likely don't get all the vitamins and minerals I need and imagine this is a better way of getting important nutrients vs multivitamins.
