As you know, I often eat frozen stuff. Well, I cook it in the oven before I eat it, but it's still what I would call "frozen food." Tonight I tried some Marie Callender's Orange Chicken. It was actually quite good! I followed the directions, and it was crunchy and tangy, as advertised. Do you ever eat "frozen food"? What are among your favorites?

I will buy frozen bags of vegetables, or fruit, but I don’t purchase the meals. I just get a lot more bang for my buck cooking from scratch, and I can somewhat control what we are eating that way. But you haven’t taught Kitty to cook yet, you need to work on that.

I tried. She made a mess. And her fur stuck to the roof of my mouth.

I am glad that you do cook it before eating the frozen stuff. I like her pies.

I don't have much of a sweet tooth. But I'll try some other dishes.

I eat frozen ice cream on a stick, but it tends to melt before I've finished it... Other than that, I tend to cook frozen food, although I will toss in some frozen peas to my 'instant' ramen noodle soup.

Why does ice cream have to do that?

I have been leaning on frozen food more in the last couple of years. Stouffers makes a good spinach souffle. I buy frozen bell pepper strips and cut onion cause its easiest to portion out what I want and not waste like I would if it were fresh.

Yes, frozen foods are great staples and let us eat a variety of foods. I have not tried Marie Callender's orange chicken. I have had some of her pot pies. I got mandarin chicken in the Walmart Brand (great value) that was good. I got it without the rice, and made my own side rice because I had it on hand. I shared with hubby and then I made three lunches for work out of it. Price was also good.

@TheHorse We like it. I usually buy the banquet family size which is just 6 steaks. It doesn't take long to fix the sides we want

Usually my friend cooks and I clean the kitchen after eating. I do eat frozen meals on her long work days. They are okay, usually Marie Callender's. I never tried the orange chicken though.

Pretty and I buy a couple of frozen pizzas every month and enjoy them. (Usually, we get chicken pizza at Walmart. It's really good!) I also buy Jimmy Dean frozen sausage, egg and cheese croissants and eat them for breakfast most mornings.

We usually have a couple of frozen meals in the freezer. They come in very handy.

Yes, when my husband was home, that's all he ate. I like some of Stouffer's meals; but they are more expensive. Their Swedish Meatballs meal is a good one. Have a good week.
