Frozen Dinner Options Can Be Good?

It's about that time for a pre-made meal, right? It's a common practice in my house to throw some frozen food in the oven and cut the actual effort of cooking pretty much out of the equation. That doesn't mean your meal has to suck, right?

Try a pot pie. Seriously. It has a little bit of everything in it. Veggies to make you feel healthy, tender pieces of chicken, and some gravy to make it all taste delicious.

Plus, Blake's Gluten-Free Chicken Pot Pie is pretty darned good for not having a traditional pie crust on top. It might not be exactly the same taste as one made with wheat, it still works and doesn't take away from the flavor. I look forward to eating if that gives you any confidence to try it. It really does look like the picture on the box too. Well, not the crust but the inside looks fresh and yummy. The crust...well you'll see how that went down below.

Don't be fooled by the mess. They turned out just fine. It's just that pot pies like to explode in our oven. The crust is still cooked and it tasted good. The gravy just felt a little left out and tried to join the party.

Not to mention that random pea. I don't know what happened there.

The pies cook for about an hour. That's pretty standard for a pie but a little longer than average for a frozen meal, but I think it's worth the wait because it's different but still a comfort food.

As a meal, my mother decided to add some asparagus for extra vegetable power. Not my first pick, but I don't have a choice. Nutritious though, if nothing else. I'm more of a sauteed green beans person.

I had a glass of rice milk to drink because it's a nice change from water every once in a while. It has a closer resemblance to normal milk than soy or almond, so I like it in that respect. It's a tad sweeter though, but I don't have a problem with that. Other people who have tried it haven't been as keen on it as I have. Maybe in cereal if you're not a sweet drink person?

The pot pie was delicious and I ate every bite of it. I've had this type one other time and it was just as good. One of my new favorites, for sure.


Don't forget to search for those gluten free alternatives to comfort food, because they're out there. I've found one of my favorites, and hopefully you'll like it too.

I found these pies next to the Amy's brand organic food in the organic frozen section at Kroger just in case you want to know where they're hiding.

Cross your fingers for another healthy day and no more renegade peas,
