They had the Lean Cuisine on sale a couple of weeks ago & that is when I buy them. I also take to work for lunch. If you get the WW, I suggest bringing an extra veg to help round it out. They are small & you will be hungry, so buff it up with free veggies.

The LC I just bought were all great, I got the low carb: Roasted Turkey, Roasted Chicken I believe they came with green beans. The taste was really good. I brought a few crackers to help round out the meal.
I can't remember the others I got but they were all good.

I eat them for lunch every day!

I love the LC Thai Chicken!

Creamy Basil Chicken is a favorite and The chicken enchilada suiza are good too.

Today I had the Swedish Meatball, and though they are not my favorite, they are good and have a high protein count (which is what matters most to me.)

Maddy, try the new Spa Cuisine Classics they've just come out with. I just finished the Pork with Cherry Sauce and it was really good. I have to add some salt and pepper to them but these are more flavorful than some of the older ones. Interesting veggies too.

We (my DS and I )like the Santa Fe Bean entree

My DS (12 yrs)recently tried Marie Callendars Fettuccini Alfredo frozen entree. When we were looking at frozens during our next trip to the store, he saw how many fat grams (30!!)there were in one box ( 1 meal ). He looked at the Lean Cuisine fettuccini and it was only 7 grams. It is half the size of the MC brand entree. He asked if he could get 2. I said yes. (still half the grams of the MC) To make a realy long story short. He liked it and made no comment about it tasting low fat!!

I switch on and off between lean cuisine or weight watchers entrees. i like to have them in the freezer to pop in when I need a quick lunch. My favorites

lean cuisine chicken mediteranean
lean cuisine sesame chicken
lean cuisine french bread pizza
lean cuisine chicken with stuffing

weight watchers veggie sandwich pockets
weight watchers chicken mirabella (very low in calories, this entree is I believe 210 cal and 2 gms fat)
weight watchers spinach cheese ravioli

Maddymoo, I buy lots of the Lean Cuisine low carb dinners and eat them as a snack. I have gestational diabetes and the carb count is low with the low carb dinners. They alone probably wouldn't fill you up for dinner tho. The Lean Cuisine pizzas are ok, I've had them. Some of the Healthy Choice dinners are good too...I like the roast turkey.

I love the chicken teriyaki bowl (this has rice) or the beef stir fry (with spaghetti noodles - don't remember what it's called beef stir fry, beef teriyaki - don't remember)

Glazed chicken
sweet/sour chicken

can you tell I like their chicken meals! LOL

Their spaghetti is good too but I'm at work and don't remember if its with meatballs or not.

Lean Cuisine or Healthy Choice on sale is a cheap, quick, tasty meal.
