Re: Are There Any Frozen Entrees You Enjoy In A Pinch?

I keep a couple of Michelangelo meals in my freezer for DH.  He eats so little.  Sometimes I'm happy with a salad for dinner and he's not a fan, so I pop in one of these.  They're small, but they satisfy him.

When he would go out of town on business I'd often have one of these for myself.  Come to think of it he hasn't been out of town in years and I'm due for a MC pot pie!

Stouffers vegetable lasagne, it's a small serving and very tasty.


Another vote for Stouffers vegetable lasagna.

I keep some of the Life Cuisine Low Carb frozen dinners at work.  I'll have one of those once every couple of weeks.

No, not anymore--used to love stouffers lasagna years ago--- but it tastes weird to me now---oh wait--yes, I did used frozen mac-n-cheese when I was feeding the "ex" ---I really didn't care what brand or how awful the ingredients were--he didn't deserve much more than the cheap garbage!! But he ate it---

Yes, Schwan's are my favorites.

@RetRN We enjoy the Schwan's marinated salmon fillets.  The price has kept us from eating it more often.

We like this one from Trader Joe's. I like that it uses white meat chicken.

More good eats:

 

Trader Joe's Chicken Enchiladas made with white meat

 

Trader Joe's Mandarin Orange Chicken is kind of famous. It tastes really good, serves a family, and it's relatively inexpensive. It's kind of high in calories and uses dark meat chicken, which I'm not fond of. But it's one of their best sellers. 

 

My son and DIL love Trader Joe's Butter Chicken. 

 

As Texans, we can't overlook Tamales, which we buy from a nice lady nearby who makes them in her home. They freeze really well and are nice to have on hand!

I always have something in the freezer as backup for a quick meal; Stouffers, Hungry Man, Marie Callendars, Hormel, and Gortons products are my go to.   

 

My husband is taking daily radiation treatments so my focus right now is to keep him eating; every trip to the grocery store has me looking for something he likes and maybe hasn't had for awhile.
