Buying Lean Cuisine's

One word of warning, from experience....

If you've been making your own food at home, don't let the convenience of moving to these lead to worse options.

Lean cuisines might be just "a little" worse for you than home made, then the hot pockets might be just a little worse than the lean cuisines, then McDonalds is just a little worse than the hot pockets... you get the idea.

Don't "a little worse" back to bad habits.

I am the converse of this notion.
The so and so is "a little better than" McDonald's which is my example of the worse food on planet earth.
Any time somebody has anything negative to say about anything I eat, I say, "at least it's not McDonald's".

Some of us must crawl before we can walk.

Most definitely. I wasn't being negative at all. I was just offering a word of caution based on a road that I myself have traveled.

I love Lean cuisine. It is easy and delicious.

thanks for the input...I also tend to be eating the same salads over and over...got any good ideas for me?

Spinach salad?

2 cups spinach
1 chopped up hard boiled egg
1 teaspoon bacos (the fake bacon bits)
between 1 and 2 tablespoons poppy seed dressing

YUM!

Spinach, strawberries, cucumbers, and poppy seed dressing.

Oh my goodness! I am so having that tomorrow!

I like Healthy Choice Steamers personally, though Lean Cuisines are good too. As for the sodium content, I have one of those meals almost every work day and my sodium is still way under the limit for the day. I just wouldn't suggest eating them for every meal in one day - then the sodium might be a problem. But as far as convenient, balanced meals, they are pretty good. Look for the ones with higher protein, lower sodium, and lower sugars to have your best balance. And make sure you get ones with at least one serving of veggies. Just my suggestion. Good luck and happy, convenient eating!
