Microwavable meals

[(Anonymous)]

I need some easy food to throw in the lunch at work. Been eating hot pockets for the past two weeks and those are getting old. What easy stuff do you all eat?

Do you have a Trader Joe's near you? Because this is way easier if you have a Trader Joe's near you

Not super close, but close enough to get it back home in a cooler when I visit my brother.

I toss frozen veggies in the microwave for about 4 minutes to steam theme. Also I sometimes make hardboiled eggs and have those in the fridge as a quick snack that lasts days.

I'm vegetarian so cup noodles I can eat aren't that easy to find, but when I can find ones without meat I add finely chopped and/or frozen veggies to the water when I'm heating it, or torn baby spinach and some frozen peas when the noodles are done. If you eat meat then you could add chicken to chicken ramen, or whatever.

Also seconding the Trader Joe's recommendation.

Those single-serve salads from the grocery store. They're like 3 bucks and there's a bunch of different kinds. I have one of those and a bagel and I'm good.

I'm a big microwave popcorn eater. I get the big boxes at Costco. If I don't have anything else: a bag of microwaveable popcorn, some fruit or nuts, and a yogurt.

Cans of soups are really handy. Made sure to either have a can opener at work or only get the pop tops. But they are super easy to bring in, dump in a bowl, and heat up. Some even come in plastic containers so you don't even need the bowl.

Not a hot meal but you can make an easy bean or chickpea salad with some canned white beans and some vinaigrette. Other veggies can be finely diced and tossed in as well.

Okay, I got you bonny.

Green Giant microwavable meals aka Green Giant Simply Steamable. So. Good. Super easy. They have some variety. You can hopefully find it (or a knock off) at your local supermarket. I'm a big fan of the buttered brussel sprouts (pair it with egg fried rice or just white rice or a whole meal) and the vegetable pilaf. so tasty! The cheese and broccoli is also good with rice.

I'd also recommend the pot pies some brands have. i usually get the chicken pot pies. They're tasty and filling.

Naturally, these aren't ideal meals to have everyday, but they're certainly above hot pockets imo. My best recommendation is to either heat up leftovers or prepare something in advance. If you can't, these are easy substitutes. I'm also a fan of Heinz vegetarian beans (aka the no meat pork and beans) with rice. Man I love that shit lol. But also a lot of canned food can be microwaved. Usually Chef Boyardi stuff, but sometimes the Mac n cheese. Not a huge fan of that.

And of course if there's a trader Joe's near your job/you're willing to make the trip every now and then, I'd say go for it. Their orange chicken? Sesame chicken? Idk that was amazing. And most of their options are both healthy and quick. I don't live or work near a TJ, si it's always a dedicated trip to go there. But it's Al we and worth it.
