I like Michael Angelo's chicken piccata with penne. Their penne and meatballs is pretty good as well, and easy enough to jazz up the sauce to taste. The pasta is firm and not overcooked.

My favorites from Schwan's are the chicken tortilla soup, beef tips and gravy, hot-and-spicy breaded chicken breast fillets, and red-skinned garlic mashed potatoes.

I agree about frozen pot pies. If I buy some, I'll make extra filling (chicken, vegetables, cream of onion soup, etc.) so it's more of an actual meal instead of an empty pie crust. But as you say, they're very high in calories, sodium, and carbs.
