    Amy's frozen entrees are good -- I particularly like the Indian and Mexican food options and the vegetable lasagna (not their "Light & Lean" spinach lasagna, which I don't particularly care for). Red's frozen burritos are good too, along with their veggie burrito bowl. I'm not a vegetarian, but I find that I prefer vegetarian frozen options to most of the ones with meat in them.

    All I can tell you is avoid lean cuisine pizzas. I had one last week. They used to be an almost okay replacement for higher cal pizza if you couldn't make your own. Now they are extra extra sad and taste like diet food yet still 380 calories. Something isn't right with the crust. I'd rather have a better frozen pizza that is actually not much higher calorie.

    I like some of amys entrees in a pinch.

    I like lean cuisine. They have some new ones like comfort food classics. I use them for quick lunches sometimes and try to have one or two on hand to make for myself if a high calorie or lazy dinner is happening so I have some options. There's not a single variety that I haven't liked!

    I travel a lot for work and I love Amy's burritos (their other meals are okay, but I don't like them as much as the burritos) and the Sweet Earth burritos. The Sweet Earth burritos have a lot of variety in terms of flavors.

    I like the Lean Cuisine Chicken Parm. I will pick it up if I've forgotten to pack a lunch. Under 300 calories, satiating, and usually only $2.

    So I got some Amy's Cheese Enchiladas per recommendations here.

    Very yummy. But when I picked them up I didn't read carefully enough to see that is was two servings in the package.

    So that happened. :p

    Still within my calorie goal, just might have done it differently if I had paid better attention.

    I like the Amy's enchilada with spanish rice and beans. It's about 300 calories, but it's SO good!! I also love amy's mushroom risotto.

    I really dont like any of there stuff with cheese.

    I know it's not a frozen meal, but i enjoy the D.r McDougal's Tortilla Soup and Annie Chun's Udon Noodles. Both you just add hot water to. :)

    There's a Safeway/Vons store brand line called Eating Right that I love. Their chicken basil cream sauce linguine is 260 calories of frozen heaven.
