Frozen Meals - don't knock 'em til you try 'em...

Here's the deal, I LOVE to cook, but a lot of times it's easier for me to grab a quick frozen meal that has all the calories calculated for me and can give me a large variety of flavors. On a typical week day I will eat a frozen meal for lunch. Now, I know that they have a bad wrap, being full of sodium and preservatives. However, some frozen meals have no preservatives (Lean Cuisines) and have as much sodium as that can of soup you've been eating instead, or that fast food grilled chicken sandwich. All I'm saying here is, they haven't killed me yet and I can't tell you how many hundreds, possibly thousands of these things I've eaten in my life time. Also, as an added bonus, they're cheap! Often $2 a piece. That's only $10 for 5 lunches and unless you've been living in a cave like the Geico cavemen, that's a hell of a deal.

So, for you skeptics and people that have never tried a frozen meal, I've outlined some of my favorites. Oh and in case you can't tell, Lean Cuisines seem to be my frozen meal of choice - they also have a lot more options!
