South Beach Diet meals are really great. My nutitionist recommended them and they taste really good, plus they all have around 25 grams of Protein.< /p>

The only thing you need to watch on pre-made dinners is the sodium content. They usually have lots of "fillers" in them too, like modified sugars and food starch (which turns to sugar if not used).

Always look at the first 5 ingredients. If they aren't real food, then pass on them.

It's often easier to cook a real meal, then get those plastic freezer containers and make your own pre-made dinners.

Less salt, less money and better quality food.

I'm still recovering from surgery, but I will have frozen dinner or 2 in my freezer in case I need one.

I do the occasional South Beach meal when I am out of time to cook for myself. Steamed veggies in the pouches are a great quick food too, just avoid the ones covered in cheese and sauces.< /p>

Gortons grilled fillets are quick and easy and have 100 calories, 17g of Protein and 1g of carbs

Has anyone tried the frozen entree by Angelo's that is Eggplant and chicken Parmesan? It is so good! I eat 1/2 for lunch one day and the other 1/2 the next day. I usually have a yogurt with it too. My doctor said the Lean Cuisine's are okay, but its hard finding some without Pasta or rice.

When eating frozen meals... how much of one can you eat? I know for the eaters we used to be, they didn't yield much satisfaction... however, I assume that eating one now... I'd be satisfied by eating 1/2 - 3/4's of one...
