Costco offers a wide variety of pre-made meals. There are a few staples that show up frequently regardless of the location of the store or time of year, but they’re always rolling out new ones to try. These meals are generally pretty convenient, but they’re not always cheap, so you don’t want to waste money on a disappointing one!
The Kirkland Signature Meat Lasagna is an all-time great Costco item. We also really enjoyed this Enchilada Bake. Sometimes you can even find sandwiches and wraps – great if you’re looking for an easy picnic lunch.
Cold fall and winter weather means it’s soup season! I reviewed the Kirkland Signature Organic Chicken Bone Broth a couple of weeks ago and today I’m reviewing the Kirkland Signature Chicken Noodle Soup. The broth has a few different potential uses whereas this is classic chicken noodle soup that’s ready … Read more
Costco has quite a few stir fry/noodle options – the Kirkland Signature Chicken Chow Mein, the Kirkland Signature Beef Chow Mein and the Ajinomoto Vegetable Yakisoba are a few that I’ve purchased multiple times in Canada.

I’ll say this right now: I don’t really like meatloaf. I’ve had a couple of surprisingly good meatloaf dishes at restaurants over the years, but for a seemingly simple dish, it’s not easy to do well. A lot of the time it just turns out as a boring, dry block … Read more

The Kirkland Signature Meat Lasagna has been a staple at Costcos in my city for as long as I can remember. Costco seems to have rolled out a lot of new pre-made meals in the past couple of years and also started rotating them in and out of stock more, … Read more
I love Greek salad. Even though it’s not very hard to make, it does take some time to chop up all of the vegetables, so a pre-made version like this Kirkland Signature Greek Salad is certainly appealing. Does it taste as good as fresh homemade Greek salad? Is it worth … Read more
This Pulmuone Beef Japchae is the third noodle-based dish that I’ve reviewed from the company. They all share very similar packaging, though this one can’t be cooked in the microwave like the Teriyaki Stir-Fry Udon and Pad Thai.

You have to give Costco credit for how adventurous and geographically diverse it is with its pre-made meal creations in the deli section. While the dishes might not always be the most authentic, they clearly try to draw inspiration from different parts of the world in creating them. This Kirkland … Read more
A lot of Costco’s pre-made meals tend to be comfort foods. This Kirkland Signature Mac and Cheese definitely falls into that category. Some people might argue that macaroni and cheese isn’t a meal, so I suppose this might be more of a side than a true meal. At the end … Read more
My husband and I love Mexican food. We have a great local Mexican restaurant that we order from regularly. We don’t make many Mexican-themed foods at home, but one of our dinner staples is a quinoa enchilada casserole that I make regularly. It’s very tasty, but it’s a bit time-intensive … Read more
