    I buy frozen veggies, steam in bag kind, all the time. Sometimes it's just easier. I think they are fine

    Yep that is my only caveat with frozen veg--check the labels to see if it's just veg or if they've added things (salt, etc). Otherwise I think they're great especially because most of the time I can't get to my fresh veg before it spoils :)

    Everything I have read says that frozen are just you as good. Try the steamfresh kind that you put the bag in the microwave they come out great. you can get them seasoned or plain. I stay away from the sauce because that can add lots of calories.

    I often nuke my frozen veggies in a bowl. just plain. peas are perfect that way.I will add tomato sauce for flavor if needed.

    this.

    I only add S/P and butter to mine- I LOL at "serving" sizes on those steamables- it should just say "1 bag = 1 serving"

    This, minus the butter. :D This is why I don't track veg unless it's super sugary (e.g., corn) or starchy (e.g., potatoes/yam/etc.). I love my veg and will eat a whole bag as a serving if I should feel so inclined. It's worked for me so far. :D
