More new products. I found all of these at Whole Foods.
Simply Organic Brand Roasted Turkey Gravy Mix: No MSG, no dairy, no fat. Mix the packet with water and cook. It's good - not as good as Thanksgiving turkey gravy made with all those drippings, but still good. The same people also make Chicken Gravy Mix that I haven't tried yet.
Simply Organic Sloppy Joe Mix: No MSG, no dairy, no fat. Brown a pound of ground meat (I used about 3/4 pound ground turkey) and 1/4 cup onion, add mix, water, and tomato paste. It's quite good, but spicy. HanSolo's Sloppy Joes are better, of course, but the mix is very easy and great for a quick meal when there's not much in the fridge.
Guiltless Gourmet Baked Yellow Corn Tortilla Chips: 110 calories per serving, 15 from fat, so 14% of calories from fat. These are delicious. I think Trader Joe's similar chips are a little better, but these are darn close. They have the same ingredients (except Guiltless Gourmet is yellow corn rather than blue) and the same calorie and fat count. And for me, Whole Foods is much closer than Trader Joe's. Like the Trader Joe's chips, however, these are addictive and I suspect eating the whole bag would probably be a bad idea.
Enjoy!

Thanks for the info on the Trader Joe Blue Tortilla. I always wondered if the "blue" type was okay.
I bought a bag today and they are so incredibly good! What a nice change from baked potato chips! I opened the bag on the drive home...just couldn't wait! 
Thanks, Sand!

I bought this again and the packet now says, "Contains milk". I ate it and did fine with it, but be cautious if you're super-sensitive to dairy.
Sigh.
