Is it possible to eat from the frozen food aisle at lunch?
Yes. Along with the frozen entrees that we’ll discuss in a minute, you have a few healthy choices here. Rule of thumb: Include at least a cup of fruits or vegetables, such as bagged lettuce or cut up fruit and a yogurt, to complete the meal. For example: -Lean Pockets makes lunch-sized items that contain about 15 percent fewer calories and half the fat of Hot Pockets and a third the fat of Croissant Pockets. Serve with a clam-shell of cut up fruit from the produce department and a glass of milk or tub of nonfat yogurt. -A container of cooked shrimp with cocktail sauce is another option. Serve with baby carrots and dip, apple slices, tossed salad, or other fruits/vegetables. Or just buy cooked frozen shrimp and toss with bagged lettuce for an instant lunch salad. -Frozen pizzas: This one is a bit tricky, but you can have your pizza and maintain your waistline and health, too. In general, go for the pizzas with the most vegetables. For example, a slice of Essensia Pizza Spinach Mushroom
