Iceland £1 Mealtime favourites - fish Pie and toad in a hole reviewed

I was at Iceland again to see if there were any new finds and spotted these £1 Mealtime favourites.
The choices were impressive from ready meals to pies and burgers.
What's not to love.
In the end, I got the toad in the hole and fish pie for lunch.

The toad in the hole was amazing especially the sausages which were not bad as it didn't have bones or chewy bits.
Adding bisto gravy took it to another level.
It was even more delicious because I mixed the regular bisto gravy with bisto chicken gravy and it was so good. 




The fish pie was bland as expected but that was okay because it's good for people on a low sodium diet and also I got to try this artisan salt from Isle of Skye which has seaweed in it hence a match made in heaven.
These bland fish pies could be rebranded as low sodium meals for people on a low sodium diet. 
There isn't much fish in it but it was only a pound.




Went back again and got the battered fillets , crispy potato slices and beef pancakes.
The battered fillets were not bad but were bland so all you have to do is just add salt but at least they had a fishy taste.
I felt that they battered fillets were made of chunky fish offcuts reformed into a fillet shape.
The Crispy potato slices taste like McCoys Crisps before they ditched the flats so they were quite nice. 
The crispy pancakes taste like Birds Eye pancakes but again a bit Bland and not much minced beef as expected. 






Went to another branch and there was a bigger variety of the pound range snacks so I got my hands on the lamb and mint pies and cheese & mushroom crispy pancakes.
The cheese & mushroom crispy pancakes were seriously good tasted like the childhood minus the stringy chewing gum mozzarella.

The lamb and mint pie was tasty but a little disappointing because the carrots were raw and crunchy, other than that it was ok.
