Applebee’s Florentine Ravioli with Chicken – Review

Applebee’s have recently added two new stuffed pasta dishes to its menu – Provolone Stuffed Meatballs and Florentine Ravioli with Chicken. And the good news is that both these menu items are available in its 2 for $20 menu.  So you can now savor the rich taste and aroma of these Italian dishes in Applebee’s 2 for $20 value menu.  These new items from Applebee’s menu can also be ordered as stand-alone items apart from the 2 for $20 menu.  The new stuffed pasta dishes now pair up with Applebees menu items which include Boneless Buffalo Wings, Fish N Chips, Riblets, Honey Grilled Salmon, and Chicken Quesadilla.  We have already reviewed ‘Provolone Stuffed Meatballs With Fettuccini‘ in our last post.  In this post, we will give a review of Applebee’s ‘Florentine Ravioli with Chicken’.

Applebees Florentine Ravioli Chicken comprises of half moon raviolis filled with a mixture of spinach and tender Italian cheese, served over a bed of spinach, chopped Bruschetta tomatoes, mushrooms, onions and roasted red peppers cooked with brown butter and herbs; and all this is topped with Applebee’s Alfredo sauce with roasted garlic.  And, on top of the dish you will find sliced grilled chicken and shaved Parmesan cheese, and the dish is served with breadstick.  The portions are quite generous and filling.

The effect of these contrasting ingredients is just marvelous.  The combination of the ravioli, grilled chicken, Alfredo sauce and spinach is really very delicious.  It is very difficult to get this taste in home made dishes.  The grilled chicken and pasta blended with other ingredients also have a great visually appeal.  The dish is also a good choice for those who love veggies as there are a lot of vegetables in the entrée.

Applebees menu has several pasta dishes apart from the Florentine Ravioli.  These include Chicken Broccoli Pasta Alfredo Bowl, Three Cheese Chicken Penne Pasta and Spicy Shrimp Diavolo.  If you order the new pasta dishes as stand-alone items, they are all priced at just $9.99.

We would rate the dish as 4.5 on a scale of 5.  There is one note however for the calorie conscious eater.  If you are looking for a lower calorie option, you can have this dish once in a while – but not regularly, even if its taste is addictive.   This dish has 1,320 calories coming from 88 gms of fat, 70 gms of carbs, 6 gms of fiber and 65 gms of proteins.  There are many healthy options in Applebee’s Weight Watcher’s menu and Under 550 calorie menu for health conscious people.

Applebee’s Gluten Free Foods

Applebee’s not only offers tasty nutritious meals, it also takes into consideration the special needs of different people.  For instance, lots of people have certain medical conditions because of which their doctors ask them to keep gluten out of their diet.  All Applebee’s restaurants may not have a Gluten Free Menu, but they have provided information about Gluten free food items in Applebee’s Menu and other food allergens on their website.

Gluten is a grain protein found in many food items including baked breads and a variety of desserts.  Today, gluten intolerance is on the rise.  Since those who have such a problem have to be careful of what they eat while at home or dining out, many restaurants are making gluten free products available.  Accordingly, Applebee’s too decided to include gluten-free dishes in their menu.

Many restaurants and food companies are reluctant to declare any of their products as being completely gluten-free because of concerns of cross-contamination.  So also, while Applebees does not commit to any of their dishes being 100% gluten free, it does not imply that you can’t have gluten free food at any Applebee’s restaurant.  While placing your order, you just have to inform your server about having to avoid gluten so he can take the required measures to avert gluten contamination.

Having said that, if you have had a gluten-free meal at Applebee’s before, we would love to know what your experience (whether positive or negative) was, through your comments.

Now let us check the gluten-free options in Applebees Menu.

Gluen-free Protein Dishes

High protein seafood and chicken dishes at Applebee’s such as Garlic Herb Salmon, Fiesta Lime Chicken, Cajun Lime Tilapia, and Grilled Dijon Chicken & Portobello are free of gluten for they don’t include accompanying sides.  Gluten can be avoided by not opting for gluten containing items like rice or flat bread as sides for these dishes.  However, remember, potential cross contamination makes it impossible to guarantee that the food will be totally gluten free.
