Things to look for:
- Small portions - stick to under 600 calories; which is between 25-35% of ALL the calories you need in an entire day!
- Low Fat - no trans fat and less than 4 grams of saturated fat
- Low Sodium - less than 700 mg for ENTIRE MEAL (not per serving)
- Some fiber
- Tricky labeling - always check the nutrition label
- Tasteful and appetizing!
NOTE: If healthy frozen meals aren't keeping you filled, try adding frozen veggies or healthy additions like salsa, nuts, fruit or low-fat dairy (yogurt, cheese).
Conclusion: Frozen dinners should not be an 'every day food.' Ideally, your diet needs to be made up of fresh, whole foods. But when you're running late or are in threat of missing a meal, some frozen meals can fill a must-needed, healthy void if you do a little nutrition label reading.
