Frozen dinners seem to have come a long way, even in the past 10 years. My father is on a diet plan and the way he does it is to have basically nothing in his house except "healthy" frozen meals and healthy-ish snacks like nut mixes and apple chips. The word healthy is in scare quotes but actually they seem relatively okay: a good amount of grains, usually enough veggies to satisfy a serving or two, and enough protein to feel sated. Just don't reach into the freezer aisle blindly and you can come out with something decent.
If you can't muster the energy at the end of your day to cook a meal, these are a pretty decent substitute.
- baroffoos 7y agoAlmost all foods seem to get destroyed in the freezing process and lose their texture. I have found that at my supermarket they sell refrigerated meals that just need to be microwaved and they taste outstanding. As long as you make sure to stir them half way through so they don't dry out at the top you could literally serve it at a restaurant and I don't think people would notice.
- uoaei 7y agoI have a feeling there are more than a few restaurants which do basically exactly this.
- Symbiote 7y agoThere are plenty of places in the UK where this is done. I'm sorry when visitors eat in these places, and either don't realise £6.50 for a meal means it can only be microwaved from a box, or get ripped off and pay £12 for it. This is a major supplier. https://www.brake.co.uk/meal-solutions/multi-portion-prepared-meals https://www.brake.co.uk/meal-solutions/multi-portion-prepare...
