Most prepared, frozen meals have a lot of sodium and other unhealthy ingredients. Most have few nutrients and average flavor.
When I find a good fast frozen meal I like to let you know.
Healthy Choice Cafe Steamers - Beef Merlot is a pretty good choice for a fast frozen meal. It has more pluses than minuses.
DESCRIPTION ON BOX: Tender beef strips with red potatoes and a vegetable medley in a rich Merlot wine sauce.
The biggest minus is 600mg of sodium.
The pluses are:
- 15g Protein
- 4g Sugar
- 1.5 g Saturated Fat
- No Artificial Flavors
- 180 Calories per meal
- 4-5 minutes from frozen to eating
- 720mg Potassium
- Lots of Vitamins: A (45%), Calcium (6%), Thiamine (8%), B12 (20%), Magnesium (10%), C (4%), Iron (8%), Riboflavin (6%), Folic Acid (8%), Phosphorus (20%), Zinc (15%), and Maganese (15%).
- On a scale of 1 to 10 with 10 being Extremely Delicious and 1 being Catfood Tastes Better, this is an 8. Pretty good for a frozen meal.
This is a good choice in a pinch meal and won't eat up your daily caloric allotment.
Do you find it hard to motivate yourself to cook when you are home alone? What quick fix do you turn to most often? Do you have any recommendations for the rest of us?
