Today I dun goofed and forgot to thaw out my meals BUT when you’re hungry everything is tasty!
Meal number 2 is Spicy Barramundi with the mango mint sauce and basmati rice. If youāve never ordered from Muscle Meals, hereās how it looks before defrosting and preheating.
The vacuum bags are great and flavour is sealed in nicely, now I donāt know if itās because I didnāt let this sit out from the night before and give the āspicesā a chance to come through properly or there just wasnāt enough – but it wasnāt THAT spicy. Nothing tabasco canāt fix!
This is still one of their best fish options on the menu and I would recommend this over the regular barramundi fillet, and with the mango sauce – great combo! Now I totally ruined this meal because I didnāt let it defrost overnight and ended up with semi-warm crunchy rice and and cold centre filet.
The fish itself is really nice and Iāve had this previously so when done right itās still quite tender/juicy and has a lot of flavour and smells particularly good – no fishy business!

Pro Tip: If youāre going to microwave your meals from frozen, microwave for a minute take it out squeeze the packaging a little to move it around and throw back in for 40 seconds. Sauce will need 20 – 25 seconds instead of the recommended 10.
Solid 8/10
