Frozen Meals 1 article

The frozen-meal aisle spans fully or partly prepared entrees designed to go from freezer to microwave, oven or other simple heating method. The category includes single-serve dinners, family-size dishes, grain bowls, pasta entrees and similar convenience foods. Recipes vary far more than the format suggests, so protein, vegetables, fiber, sodium, saturated fat and portion size can differ widely from one product to another. Heating method, package size and whether a meal is a complete entree or needs a side are also practical distinctions.
