What are the best frozen dinners?
>>
That stuff is all ultra processed slop and will kill you stay away
>>
zataraiins blackened chicken alfredo
/thread
>>
>>22222489
all of them have taken a nosedive in quality. The closest thing to "satisfying" I'm still willing to eat is probably a marie callender's or cheapo banquet brand pot pie. i wish marie callender's would put potatoes in their chicken pot pies. It'd be so much better. the beef one is okay though and has potatoes.

forgot to mention: not from the microwave. it's only decent from the oven.
>>
I actually tried like 4 of them, none were bad just pricey almost 6 bucks
>>
>>22222489
The steam bag veggies are good. They have some with pasta or rice too. Flash frozen so it's less processed than most.
>>
>>22222520
6 dollars for a single meal is one of the best deals you can get in this economy

these are the only actually good ones in my country that i know of.
>>
>>22223068
that sounds bangin
>>
>>22223078
it is, the vegetables are surprisingly fresh, the sauce is flavorful (you can actually taste the white wine) and the pasta + the filling are very good quality.
>>
>>22222489
Why doesn't the macaroni have a description like the rest of them?
>>
Anything beyond banquet mega meals or Marie calenders or Michilini is just bullshit
>>
>>22223084
the title tells the whole story

>>22222489
Only got the choice of the shitty $4 store brand ones that you need to eat 2 or 3 of to feel full, or pay $12-17 for the fancy bougie ones no-one ever buys that are still really shit quality for how expensive they are.

The $1.50 Costco hotdog and $2 for a large slice of pizza are good deals. $6 for a tiny container of frozen slop is not. You can also get a dozen eggs and a loaf of bread for less than $6 which will give you 4 to 6 meals.
>>
Are these better than the healthy choice meals?
>>
>>22224183
Its all the same bullshi just buy the cheapest meal
>>
>>22222522
a frozen pot pie is half the price with more calories
>>
There ewas one back in the day like 15 years ago rest was so good. Forgot the brand, but it was penned pasta and some type of vinegar based sauce I think. Now I'm sad. Thanks.
>>
I try to spread it into 3 meals if I can. I like every part of it. The last bit of sauce, after all the solid food is done, if I have some rice ready I'll pour it over that, but usually mop it up with some italian sesame seed bread.
Used to get it all the time but I stopped shopping at Sam's

Frozen steak and cheese pie.

the “uncompromisingly Italian” doesn’t jive well with naming it after a ninja turtle

I get these when on sale.

Oooooh, it eas a lean cuisine one.

>>22222489
in japan i saw a bunch of restaurants with a vending machine out front that would sell their food as frozen dinners after hours. does anyone in the states do this?
>>
>>22224382
Our local fauna would cause too much damage and theft to vending machines to make them financially viable.

My personal selections. Best overall is the Dynamite Penne Meatballs.
>>
>>22224423
I've eaten so many of the dynamite penne and meatball, best Mega banquet. I'd 'wave it, eat the pasta, and then hours later cut the meatballs in half, and put down on sesame seed italian bread. Made 2-3 sandwiches.
>>22224259
that's me, same idea, but the penne and meatball is a lot cheaper

>>22224129
Just ate one of the chicken ones the other night, and it was just as good as it used to be. Going to the grocery store tomorrow, will pick up a beef one to report back on if they have it.

Mind you, I don't think they're the best thing ever, maybe a 8/10 as far as frozen stuff goes, but if I'm too lazy/don't have all the ingredients to cook with, I'll eat it and not be unhappy.
