Some of the Stouffer's red box meals are not that much more caloric than the Lean Cuisine meals. The red box lasagna is only 350 calories!




Also, go to Trader Joe's. They have plenty of frozen meals that are tasty, satisfying, and very reasonably priced.

Trader Joe's to Open in Atlanta
By Christine Van Dusen, The Atlanta Journal-Constitution

Mar. 4--It's official: Trader Joe's finally is coming to Atlanta.

After scouting the market for the last four years, the California-based company -- whose 200 or so low-priced, small-sized, gourmet markets have attracted a rabid following -- will set up shop here sometime this year, said spokeswoman Alison Mochizuki.

Trader Joe's has not signed any leases yet, she said, and any speculation on the number of local locations or opening dates would be premature. She declined to discuss any other details.

Already the local fans are salivating. They call Trader Joe's a happy medium between high-priced gourmet shops and traditional supermarkets, singing the praises of the company's cheap-but-healthy-and-yummy frozen meals, "Two Buck Chuck" wines, unsalted macadamia nuts, bottled juices, unique breads and friendly staffers dressed in Hawaiian shirts.

"You never know what you're going to find, and it's always a pleasant shopping experience," said Leanne Patterson, a transplant from California who works at IBM. "It's one of the places that I miss the most when I think of California."
