Favorite Frozen Meals

[danakscully64]

What are your favorite frozen meals? Mine are:

-Kashi Tuscan Veggie Bake (260 calories, 9g total fat, 1.5 saturated, 8g fiber, 8g sugar, 7g protein). VEGAN

-Lean Cuisine Butternut Squash Ravioli

-Quorn Cranberry Goat Cheese Chik'n cutlet :drool:

-Amy's Black Bean, Tofu, Corn Enchiladas (VEGAN)


I want to try the Kashi Mayan Harvest Bake (have to find it). The Kashi Pesto Pasta Primavera was okay.

I don't eat a lot of frozen meals, but I do enjoy the easiness and cheapness a couple times a week. I'm addicted to Quorn, I eat that a lot. I just finished the Tuscan Bake (first time) and thought it was flavored well... too bad I can't fully taste it because I'm sick :( I'm going to be living off frozen things for a while, too sick to cook.

Stuff I make and then freeze myself! Does that count?

Otherwise, VeggiePatch spinach bites a good little snacks and Amy's burritos are a go to for on the go snacking for me.

[danakscully64]

I'm going to have to say that those don't count because they're homemade meals.

I've been wanting to try those spinach bites... I may have to pick them up next time I see them. :)

Kashi Tuscan Veggie Bake
^^ That is soooo good, and I love the nutrition stats on it

I used to eat lean cuisines all the time but since going veg I'm trying out new tv dinners so I don't know which ones I like best yet. The Amy's lasagnas are really good tho.

[danakscully64]

I haven't had a lot of Amy's products because of the price.... they never go on sale! I have had the cheese enchiladas and they were really good too. I want to try something new... if someone will suggest something fabulous, I'll buy it.

I just purchased the Mayan Kashi meal, but I'm not going to eat it until I can taste again :p

[sblthin]

Whole foods had a lot of Indian tv dinners, I got one but haven't tried it, i'll let you know what it's like when I do :)

[danakscully64]

Thanks! :)

3--pesto pasta primavera...Vegetarian

I just bought that one and haven't tried it either, good to hear you liked it, I suppose you can't go wrong with Kashi :D

[Pixelle]

I never had a frozen meal that I liked. All the ones I've tried years ago sucked big time. Maybe they've improved now, but when I look at the ****ty looking frozen meals I see people at work eating, it doesn't look like it.

[sblthin]

It's really hit or miss with a lot of them. Some of the ones people buy I don't know how they can eat them. My dad eats those Hungry Man dinners sometimes, 1000 calories, a whole day of sodium, god knows how much fat...

And the healthy choice ones, they have great stats but they always tasted horrible, especially the meat, not that anyone here has to worry about how the meat tastes lol

I wish Kashi made a vegetarian version of the lemon grass chicken, that one used to be my favorite when I was omni. I guess I could pick the chicken out...... NOT!

[Envy]

I don't eat frozen meals.

The Kashi no cheese pizza was the only Kashi meal I've tried and I wouldn't buy it again. I love Amy's Roasted Veggie and will buy it every couple months if I have a coupon. I've also tried Tofutti's non dairy frozen pizza because I was able to get it for $2 and I was curious how it was. It was basically like Ellio's pizza but vegan. The only other frozen meal I've tried is Amy's Indian Samosa Wrap which I wasn't fond of at all. It was way too bland for me and I had to drown it in more spices and sauces.

[vegchica13]

I eat a lot of frozen meals out of convenience when I'm working. So I have lots of faves!

Amy's:
Cheese Enchilada
Black Bean and vegetable enchilada w/ rice and pinto beans
Non-dairy burritos
Vegetable Lasagna
Tofu Scramble
Tofu Scramble pocket (just tried this recently, really really good!)
Macaroni and Soy Cheeze (has casein)

The Kashi ones I've tried have been ok. I haven't seen a lot of the ones mentioned here. The pesto primavera was decent. I think I tried a new one it was like a marinara pasto w/ white beans, broccoli and squash. That was good but probably not a favorite.

[danakscully64]

Ooooo, I need to try the tofu scrambles :D

The pesto primavera really was missing something. The Tuscan one I just had I REALLY liked, but I can't taste food fully, so maybe it really wasn't that good :p I like healthy, that's a plus. I did like what I could taste.

Come on body, get better so I can eat the Mayan meal :D

I don't eat many frozen meals. There aren't any frozen entrees available in the town I live closest to, but when I visit my bro he always has an Amy's frozen pizza for me, which is quite delicious. I'll have to go shopping w/him next time I'm there and try some other things mentioned here.

Chili and Cornbread Whole Meal

[SobeVegChick]

Those Quorn cutlets must be amazing b/c you all rave about them! Must find.

[cstadt]

The only prepackaged frozen meal I buy (and that's only rarely) is a chana masala one. I don't know the brand :\

I make coconut rice and pour the entree on top of it. It's pretty good, a little spicy but the coconut rice balances it out

I'll try to make it to my local HFS soon (the one I LOVE with the veg Cafe) and pick up some Amy's from your list.

I have yet to find a Quorn product I didn't like. The Southwestern nuggets (or whatever they are) weren't my favorite, but I would eat them. The regular nuggets with BBQ sauce :drool: Best!

I'll have to check Michelina's :) I'm trying to lose weight, so prepacked meals would be very helpful for calorie counting.


Those Quorn cutlets must be amazing b/c you all rave about them! Must find.

:yes: If you find Quorn, get the Nuggets and bake them in the oven :drool: I eat mine with either BBQ sauce or Honey.

I have to bump this. I tried the Kashi Mayan bake thing... I didn't like it at all. The weird thing is I usually love meals exactly like this, it has my fav stuff in it, I just had a hard time eating it. It may have been a texture thing. It got the best reviews online too.

[animallover7249]

I dont like Kashi's meals. I tried 3 different ones, all vegan, and they were kinda tasteless and blah.
Does quorn make anything vegan? I had their "chicken" things, I think cutlets, once, it's been a long time. They were very good, but not vegan.

[danakscully64]

I really like the Kashi Tuscan bake though :lick:

No, sadly, Quorn isn't vegan :( I think they're working on it though, that's the impression I got from them when I sent them an inquiry.

[Mojie]

Since I went vegan, it cut down on quite a few of my favorite frozen meals, but here's my vegan favorites:

Amy's:
Black Bean Vegetable Enchiladas
Baked Ziti Bowl
Teriyaki Bowl

Kashi:
Black Bean Mango

I have the Kashi Tuscan Veggie Bake and the Kashi Mayan Bake in the freezer, waiting to be tried. Just haven't gotten around to them yet. And an Amy's Roasted Vegetable Tamale meal that I'll be having tomorrow night.
