Frozen meals

I've always been able to take an hour lunch but because of recent permanent staffing changes at work, I'll only get 30 minute lunches from here on out. That being said, I would always either go out to lunch or run home and eat. However, now that I only have 30 minutes I'm going to have to eat at work the majority of the time. I don't mind frozen meals but the ones I always used to eat (stouffer's) have a really high sodium content. I'd like to eat ones that are a little healthier but that also don't taste like cardboard! What are some of your favorite?

    If you have a trader Joe's near you, they have a lot of good stuff. I love frozen chicken tikki Marsala.

    Lean cuisines! I ate the butternut squash ravioli one every day for months a few years ago!! So yummy! One of our chain grocery stores in WA is Safeway and they have their own line of frozen meals called Eating Right. Really good selection and one of the healthiest frozen meals out there.

    Could you just make a little extra food at dinner and then heat it up at work for lunch the next day? That's what we usually do.

    I like the Healthy Choice meals. The chicken margarita and the lasagna are my favorites. I don't like their meals that come with desserts though - the whole thing ends up tasting like cinnamon apples.

    I second the trader joes idea. The nearest one to me is about an hour, hour 30 away, but I will go there once every couple of months and stock up big time. Their food is usually very healthy! I also like whole foods because they do a lot of the work for me (they don't allow foods on the shelves with certain bad ingredients) but they can be a bit pricey.

    I do that sometimes but I'm weird about certain leftovers.  Like I can't bear eating leftover chicken.  It grosses me out so much.
