Trader Joe's Paneer Tikka Masala

I've decided that it's time for another theme week--this time, Indian food. Here's Day One:  



I bought this after finding that I really liked Trader Joe's Vegan Tikka Masala. I confess that I didn't even know what "paneer" was when I bought it. (It's cheese!)

This was all right, but not nearly as good as the vegan. The main thing that bothered me about it was the strong taste of spinach in the spinach rice. It seemed out of place--clashing with the other flavors.


Will I buy it again? 

No. I would always choose the vegan one over this--not because it's vegan, but because it's better.
