Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards | Re: Suggestions on Frozen Dinners

My favorite frozen meals are Amy's brown rice bowl with tofu and vegetables (it's vegan, and has no artificial stuff or MSG!) and her non-dairy black bean enchiladas and burritos. Amy's also makes a black-eyed peas, brown rice and veggies entree that I haven't tried yet. Also, check out other prepared foods at Whole Foods and TJs...there are these black bean and corn tamales Whole Foods sells that are ready to microwave and eat in less than a minute. They also have ready made meals, but these can get a little more pricey, so I buy them pretty rarely. Morningstar farms makes great corn dogs, chicken nuggets, veggie burgers, and tofu dogs that you might also enjoy. Canned soups like the ones Amy's makes, or the Imagine brand ones, are also great no-cook meals. Experiment with thowing things together quickly from canned, frozen and/or fresh ingredients, like a can of lentil soup with pita and a small side salad, or some canned black beans, avocado, salsa, and a tortilla...it seriously takes less than 5 minutes to make. You can also buy packages of ready-cooked lean chicken meat at most grocery stores (at Trader Joe's for sure) that are great for throwing into salads, stirfries or wraps when you don't want to go through all the trouble of cleaning, cutting and cooking meat. Hope that helps a little...Good luck!
