The hash brown bites were absolutely delicious (Image: Birds Eye)
Tennessee Style BBQ Loaded Burgers
This chicken burger is loaded with classic smoky-sweet Tennessee flavour and works perfectly in a brioche bun with salad and cheese.
Despite the sauce taking a while to cool down due to being inside the burger, these were absolutely delicious and tasted just like one you could get from a takeaway.
American Style Gravy Loaded Burger
This juicy chicken burger is loaded with American-style gravy, perfect for the winter months if you’re craving something wholesome.
The balance of flavours was delicious and there was just the right amount of gravy within the burger.
Sizzler fillet burgers
This fillet burger tasted better than any chicken burger I’ve had in a restaurant or takeaway.
The 100 percent chicken fillet burger was super juicy and tender and the coating had the perfect crunch.

Buttermilk Chicken Tenders
These were some of my favourite items on the menu due to how crispy and crunchy they turned out when cooked in the air fryer.
The tenders were absolutely delicious and one of the nicest frozen food items I’ve ever tried, I’ve already gone through many boxes as they’re perfect for lunches and dinners.
Hot & Fiery Chicken Chunks
If you’re a lover of spicy food, these had just the correct amount of hotness to them.
The bite-sized chunks cooked perfectly in the air fryer and had a little crispiness to them as well.
Hickory BBQ Chicken Wings
These chicken wings are dripping with rich hickory BBQ flavour and would be perfect for gatherings on Boxing Day or New Year’s Eve.
Honey Sriracha Chicken Wings
These chicken wings had a delicious flavour and coating to them and were slightly sweet with a spicy sriracha kick.
The meat was super tender, and again would be perfect for any festive gatherings.

Salt and pepper goujons
I tried these goujons in wraps, in a burger bun and on their own and they had the most delicious flavour.
They had just the right amount of salt and pepper and were good with chips and salad, and both.
Hash Brown Potato Bites
After being incredibly excited with McDonald’s released mini hash brown bites with their breakfast fast, I was eager to try these out to see how they compared.
I cooked them in the air fryer, following packet instructions, and they were so tasty and honestly better than McDonald’s ones.
They had the perfect crunch with soft and fluffy potato in the middle and worked so well dipped in ketchup.
Crispy potato ridges
Sometimes chips can get boring, so it was nice to try a different side dish alternative with the chicken, and these were so tasty.
I couldn’t believe how fresh they tasted and they had a lovely flavour to them as well as being super crispy.
Although the range is a little pricier than other Birds Eye products, the quality definitely represents the price and I think it’s definitely worth it.
The items can be picked up from a variety of retailers now, including Ocado, Asda and Tesco.
