What do you guys think about Lean Cuisine or Michelina's

Great food choice if you are solely focusing on calories in vs calories out. Pretty iffy on the sodium front, as well as some of the other macros.
I eat them every now and then, but always add stuff to them! For example, I add broccoli and seasoning to the LC eggroll. I add more spinach to the spinach alfredo. I add more kidney beans to the beans and rice.0 -
I used to practically live on frozen dinners but have lost my taste for them... plus I don't find them very filling. Smart Ones has a Mexican beans and rice one that I like and I buy one every so often, but other than that I've pretty much given up on them. Oh... and what everybody else said about sodium.0

I like the noodle based dishes in frozen food, particularly Alfredo or spaghetti marinara. I'd stay pretty far from a meat heavy dish, because the texture is gristle-y.
The fettuccini Alfredo from michelena is really yummy.
I add food to them, because 250 calories is just too low for me. So if I eat one, I'll have a salad or piece of fruit and a glass of water or skim milk along with it. Just the noodles isn't enough (for me)0 -
Also the lean cuisine panini is very yummy. I had it sometime last year. I don't buy these frozen meals often, but I don't think they will hurt you any.0
