Home Chef Heat and Eat Bread Pudding with Salted Caramel Sauce

Kroger and the person I love who gave this Home Chef Heat and Eat Bread Pudding ought to be ashamed! This stuff is SO DOGGONE good! I mean, I did not have high hopes but after I tasted it, heated in a conventional oven, it was love at first bite. It's made with brioche, which is an automatic win. It's $7 and I would never share it with 5 friends. No raisins, creamy and scrumptious.

UPDATE: May 2023 - I never saw it again in stores...

You can't go wrong with a BP from brioche with praline on top and a perfect egg custard. It was delicious, a round decent portion. The ice cream was nice but not necessary. I remember being glad my daughter didn't want any. I think of BP as grown-folks food, anyway.

Price: 8
Raisins: No
Sauce: Yes
Ice cream: Yes

Welcome Bread Pudding Lovers!

I rarely make BP, but I seek it. If I made it, I'd eat it all so this is the best way I can indulge, one portion at a time.

The rating system goes from one BP fork or thingy (yuck) to four BP (divine) forks or thingies (thingies were predecessors to the forks system).

Note: I do NOT like raisins in my BP, particularly those sneaky yellow raisins, so I'll make it clear if raisins, nuts or other accessories are in the BP.

Another preference is that I feel BP should stand alone. If it needs sauce, ice cream, whipped cream, etc., then it gets a lower rating. If those extras are just extras and the BP is good all by itself, I'll indicate that.
