These are pretty good! For some reason I've always bought the Michelina's Lean Gourmet and thought that anything over $1.50 must be overpriced. But... I think the extra $ is worth it in this case. :love:

Which ones are your favorites? Today I'm having the Picante Chicken. It's the only one I've tried so far but I have Lasagna Bolgnese and Sante Fe Rice & Beans in the freezer.

    I prefer lean cuisine! Usually have one for lunch, but it's nice to try other things ever now and then:smile:

    I like the smart ones chocolate fudge cake. lol. I have gotten away from frozen dinners though, they don't fill me up and I've found I can cook something as lean for less $$

    I have them most every evening at work. My fav is the Creamy Rigatoni with Broccoli and Chicken.

    Although I occasionally eat Smart Ones, I do enjoy Lean Cuisines too!

    The strawberry shortcake is so good. Last night I had the turkey and garlic mashed potatoes. It was good. I try not to eat them to much because of the sodium but they can be good. I love the pasta ones. I love italian food.

    So I went to the store because this thread reminded me that I was out of Sante Fe Rice and Beans. :love:
    I picked up some more to try. For dinner I had the Chicken enchildas Monterey. Soooooo good!

    For lunch I brought Mango BBQ chicken and Orzo...I'll let you know how that one is. :drinker:

    Update:
    The Mango BBQ Chicken was decent. I recommend mixing the orzo salad with the chicken and mangos though. The orzo by itself was somewhat bland.

  • smart ones are very good but be sure to drink plenty of water with them because they are loaded with sodium!

    How are the Heathly Choice meals? I just bought them at the store (5 for $10) and I had a coupon if you bought 5 you got a meal free....so, what the heck, I bought some. I figured they would be good in a pinch if I needed to make something quick.
