TV-style dinners will always be a comforting, quick fix and Trader Joe’s has tons to offer. I love the Cuban-style bowl because of its balance of carbs and protein and its great flavor.
Frozen dinners with thick sauces or big seasoning packets are typically going to be high in sodium, fat, or both. I’ll sometimes cook extra pasta or rice and mix it into the bowl to distribute the sodium or fat.
This way, the sauce and seasonings still coat the ingredients and I can have extra portions with cut-down sodium and fat content.
