Frozen Dinner Survey



Recommended Posts

I use these too all the time. I wrap them up in a lettuce wrap with a little shredded cheese for lunch. I also chop them up and up them in my egg beaters.

Great idea... Thanks!

I've been hooked on Morningstar Farms classic grillers. Never thought I'd be a veggie burger person but they are good! And they are thin so I can eat almost a whole one, which is 15g of Protein. Add a slice of cheese and reduced sugar ketchup.< /p>

Also, I love the chicken sausage too. Emeril's are my fave but they about 1.5x as expensive as Johnsonville. Plus, Jville microwave better. I add a little spaghetti/pizza sauce and parmesan cheese. Mmm!

Tyson and Perdue have come out with lightly breaded chicken nuggets and strips. I want to say 5-6g of carbs for 3 oz.

These three items are my most popular "quick foods." As a single woman with no kids sometimes it's hard to get motivated to cook for one person

Another tip, pack your lunch the night before! It's a difficult routine to get into but I make sure I put together a lunch-sized portion of my leftovers to just grab and go in the morning. I keep laughing cow and cheese sticks stocked in the communal fridge at work. I usually have nuts, Protein Bar and Peanut Butter in my desk. There's no one solution for everyone so just find what works for you!

Those are great ideas. I love morning star. I am okay with corn and the spicy black bean burgers are my favorite. ESP with Heinz 57. The morning star fills me with out weighing me down.

Nutritionists live in an ideal world. We live in the real world. Nutritionists' advice is a guideline. Some of us are very busy. We don't cook; I don't know how to cook. Low-cal frozen dinners with preservatives are better than my OLD eating habits.

Amen!

While this thread is about frozen dinners, I also like purchasing rotisserie chickens. By switching up sides and using different sauces I can get several tasty meals out of one.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
