Most days, 6pm rolls around before I even give dinner a thought. So I’ll be honest: I sometimes rely on frozen and packaged foods to get a decent meal on the table. One of my go-tos is frozen veggie pizza, because it’s fast, generally healthy, and pairs well with a salad. Our favorite is Full of Life Flatbread, but these are also good options. I usually buy whatever natural or organic kind is on sale; recently it was Kashi, so this was our dinner last week…twice.
Rather than feel guilty that every single meal is not strictly homemade, we look forward to these dinners. And, they’re still healthier and cheaper than eating out. So embrace the nights you need a little help and consider it a treat!

November 20, 2011 at 4:30 pmThank you so much for this! I cook less than ever now that I’m single, and I do feel guilty sometimes when I eat ready-made salads or frozen meals more than once or twice a week. I admit that sometimes it’s my only real variety, though. I’m such a creature of habit!
