Sounds dangerous? Think again, there are lower fat / calorie dishes available that still have the great taste... or do they?   Cannelloni filled with Spinach and Mushroom, Kitchen Garden, Linda McCartney* OUTSTANDING! The panel were very impressed with this dish: nice sized portion; appetizing appearance; full of flavour. It had everything expected - a good filling (in which you could see the lashings of spinach), a tasty tomato sauce, and a cheesy topping... In fact, the panel were so impressed, they would be pleased to have it served in a restaurant!  Per Pack (340g)† Per 100g CALORIES 382kcal 112kcal FAT 13.7g 4.0g Spinach & Ricotta Cannelloni, Eat Smart, Safeway* An appealing cannelloni, which oozed a homemade quality. It had a lovely tomato sauce which added flavour rather than being overpowering. Good on taste. Good sized portion. Recommended! Per Pack (350g)† Per 100g CALORIES 325kcal 95kcal FAT 7.7g 2.2g Spinach & Ricotta Cannelloni, Good for You, Asda* Although it had a good (lasagne-like) appearance, this dish was disappointing. Bland, tasteless. Not recommended.  Per Pack (400g)† Per 100g CALORIES 427kcal 104kcal FAT 11g 2.7g Ricotta & Spinach Cannelloni, Count On Us, M&S* The panel weren't impressed with the appearance of the dish. Absolutely smothered in chopped (tinned-like) tomatoes, and lacking any bechamel sauce. A bland dish, not surprisingly overpowered by a tomato taste.  Per Pack (360g)† Per 100g CALORIES 290kcal 80kcal FAT 6.8g 1.9g Spinach & Ricotta Cannelloni, Healthy Living, Tesco* A nice looking dish, but lacked flavour. A cheese-less sauce, a bland filling and no variety in tastes nor texture. Disappointing. Per Pack (340g)† Per 100g CALORIES 316kcal 93kcal FAT 9.5g 2.8g †Retailer's Recommended Portion Size Conclusion Linda McCartney's Cannelloni was indisputably the best. Although, all the others boasted containing less than 3% fat (Linda McCartney's has 4%) most had very little taste or flavour - and the panel felt the taste justified the extra. However, if you're concerned by the 13.7g of fat per pack, opt for the Eat Smart version - which has almost half the fat and is still full of taste.     Contact Us Free Trial Membership Newsletter Privacy Help Press Office Site Map	2008 Edition   Calorie and nutritional information for over 22,000 foods Email this page Print this page Calories in Ready Meals The Weight Loss Resources' UK food database lists the calories in over 20,000 basic and branded foods and drinks.  Access it free for 3 days
