Funny observation about frozen meals (WW, Lean Cuisine, etc)

[Hillbeans]

Today i'm having roasted turkey and potatoes (4 points) and i'm literally sopping up the last speck of potato with the last speck of turkey. The tray is completely empty and there is not one dot of sauce left!

I can't be the only one who does this, am I??

These meals are so small i've got to enjoy every last tiny bite!

I have to eat two of them to feel like I've had lunch. Although the new Panini one seems to be a bit more filling.

 

[jbdreamer]

Yep, I do the same thing!

 

[hiwaygal]

The sad part is...these things aren't even THAT good!

 

[pearlieq]

I do this too! If I thought I could get away with licking the tray, I would!

 

[jbdreamer]

The sad part is...these things aren't even THAT good!

I dissagree. Some of the lean cusines are wonderful. I love the potstickers!

 

[disneyred]

yep... totally agree. after eating one... sometimes definitely not enough !

 

[Cruise04]

Oh me too - especially the LC Spaghetti with Meat Sauce and Mushrooms - that one is good!

It's not sad until you catch yourself licking the tray. I admit it, I'm sad...

 

[caitycaity]

Oh me too - especially the LC Spaghetti with Meat Sauce and Mushrooms - that one is good!

that is what i have for lunch almost every day!

and yes - i do the same thing. what's worse is that i eat with other people and then i catch myself doing it and get all embarrassed!

Yeah I had a Lean Cuisine for lunch followed by some potato chips. I really like some of the LC meals. My favorite is the Sesame Chicken. I also really like the Lasagne and the Manicotti. The new paninis are good too.

I just finished Lean Cuisine Santa Fe Style Rice and Beans - delicious. The only problem is I need to eat two of these to feel satisfied

 

[Hillbeans]

I do this too! If I thought I could get away with licking the tray, I would!

LOL.....My thoughts exactly!!! I was going to say that but thought i'd be the only one who thought about that!

 

[amburger]

haha. I do that too. They are pretty small. Oh, well. They're pretty good for the most part.

 

[jennobrn01]

Yup! That's me! The very meal the OP speaks of I was tipping the tray and drinking the sauce out after the food was gone.

 

[02bBarbie]

I agree they're not that filling...but instead of eating 2 I just add a salad or some crudite to my meal

 

[Chicago526]

Love those LC meals. All the pizzas are good. I also adore the Three Cheese Ravioli bowl. YUMMMM! And I also love the Chicken in Peanut Sauce.

I also add a side salad (no cheese, fat free dressing) or low cal. soup to make my lunch more filling.

Has anyone tried the Lean Cuisine Chicken Primavera?

It is wonderful!!! It comes in a bag for about $3.79. My kids could live on this stuff. Whenever I see it on sale, I fill the freezer.
Served with a salad and hot rolls, and you can say dinner!

 

[Servants of Evan]

I love the Thai Style chicken... the chicken with peanut sauce is very good as well. And occasionally, the stuffed cabbage.

My favorites are the Lean Cuisine Spaghetti with Meat Sauce, the LC Deluxe pizza, and the new chicken club Panini. They are pretty good, though the spaghetti is the only one that I think is pretty filling.
