Lean Cuisine/Healthy Choice?

Hi guys,

I'm wondering if anyone has ever tried a healthy option frozen lunch such as Lean Cuisine or Healthy Choice? I'm hoping to find some options that I can grab out of the freezer and take with me to work just in case I don't have enough time to prepare something the night before. Any ideas? If you have tried them, do they taste good? Are they good alternatives? Which are your favorites?

There is a new Atkins brand frozen meal variety. I've found that 1/2 of one makes a perfect meal. I don't like to eat them very often because I've become accustomed to fresh food. But they work in a pinch!

I've tried a few Lean Cuisines, but it is too much food for me. It tastes alright, and is convenient. I get the ones that are just meat and veggies. There is a Ranchero Beef with Chipotle Sweet Potatoes that is pretty good and goes down easy. Good luck!

Thanks guys! I assumed it would be too much food. I'm okay with throwing half of it away since I won't be eating them very often. I was hoping there would be options without noodles and rice so that sounds good. I didn't know they had an Atkins brand. Ill definitely look into it! Thank you!!

Glad you posted this didnt even give them a thought...but something to put in my rolodex of info for the future.

I would say that the Atkins ones are the best option due to high protein and low carb.That is if you are trying to stay low carb.

Not sure where you're from but in Canada we have "blue menu" brands. Much healthier than lean cuisine or smart ones. And there really tasty too, I eat the fettuccine Alfredo with broccoli...mmm I tend to stay away from the meat ones because they don't taste like real meat to me.
