hi I'm Dr Nita wlaw and welcome to a fresh new day today I'm going to review oals Homestyle meal southwest chicken with rice oals did not sponsor this and this is my opinion it's an instant meal packet that can be handy when you're on the road traveling also I'm going to ask a trivia question who was the first president to live in the White House in the end I'll tell you so listen to the end for the answer I have the old meals packet and I have water you can have any kind of water then I have scissors and I have something to resist the heat because it's going to be very hot when it steams and I have something to protect my hands from the extreme heat the first thing I'm going to do is open the packet you can just tear it but I like to use scissors to make it a nice C light and open it up there is a plastic spoon and a napkin there's the actual food packet this is the actual heating pad and there's nothing else so because the water won't actually touch the food it can be any kind of water let's say you're by a lake you could actually use that water this is some water that I carry with me it happens to be um Spring Water I know that it's not going to touch the food but I just like to have water that is safe to drink but the instructions are doesn't have to be water that saf I'm going to insert the food pouch into the O's food pcket then I am going to pour water to the fill line now I have poured water to the fill line and the fill line is actually on the outside and you have to kind of look down and approximate so what I did was put 5 oz of water in my measuring cup and I poured that in and that turned out to be just about perfect now the next thing you do is take the heating pad out of its Little Packet then you have to work very quickly because it will get hot very quickly it says to tear again I'm going to use the scissors to cut right along the line and then I'm going to quickly drop it in to this container and see f it up very quickly I have cut the packet open and I have the heating pad which I'm going to drop into this package and I'm going to seal it up very quickly as you can see the Packa got extremely hot and I would say make sure young children do not handle the packet at all this is all that it yielded so it's not a lot of food and I actually used a Tong to get the packet out of the outer packet because it was so hot and I used my oven mint so I'm going to taste it let you know what I think thank you Lord for this food please sanctify it to nourish my body in Jesus name I pray amen I think it tastes pretty good for me I'm going to add a little more garlic I add onion I might add a little more onion and if I had brought an onion to chop up or some peppers I would do that and add a little parsley that's what I have with me so it tastes it tastes good but in my opinion it's a little bit mild and doesn't quite taste like homemade but it's a little something to give you some adequate nutrient if you just need a little snack while you are traveling or a very light meal this this particular meal is 270 calories there are 17 g of protein 10% iron 4% calcium and 10% pottassium and 14% total carbohydrates and 7 G of fat for a small frame woman this makes a nice snack but it's not really enough calories for a full meal so you can add something else to it or have it as a snack in the evening in all due respect I found a few more spoons of food in the packet and the answer to the trivia question is John Adams he was the first president to live in the White House George Washington supervised the construction of the White House however but never lived in it I hope that you are blessed and you have some safe travels and I pray a blessing over all of you for safety in all of your travels and make it a fresh new day in Jesus in the comments below let me know some of your tips for convenience when you travel friend if you don't know how to have a fresh new day in Jesus open your heart to Jesus Christ he is the Son of God and he paid the price for all of your sins and get yourself into a Bible believing Church to understand further also pray this prayer in faith with me right now dear God in heaven I know I'm a sinner and I need your help I believe in my heart that Jesus Christ is your son that he died on the cross for my sins and God raised him from the dead Jesus right now I open my heart and invite you to live inside of me make yourself real to me take control of my life Keep Me From Evil and make me the person you want me to be be my Lord and Savior thank you than you Lord have a wonderful wonderful journey in all of your travels
