Marie Callender chicken pot pie is mostly crust with very little in the middle (600 calories and 960 mg of sodium!).

Greenwise burritos consist of a tortillo wrap with almost nothing inside.

Red's burrito was about the same as Greenwise.

Lean Cuisine chicken burrito with rice was horrible.

Lean Cuizine mac and cheese was not bad.

California Pizza Kitchen thin pizza is pretty good, but not great.

I make a good chili and a good bean soup, and freeze it. It tastes great when I thaw it and eat it. Why can't large food companies duplicate homemade food and leave out the sodium? Any suggestions on frozen foods to buy?
Bertolli frozen meals are pretty good; haven’t checked sodium content. It is what it is. Chicken Florentine, Chicken Marsala. (delicious, but scarce), shrimp Scampi to die for. Italian Sausage with Spicy Tomato Sauce only disappointment- teeny little bit of sauce; called them and they are sending replacement coupon.
