Prepared meals that are frozen deliver fresh taste, convenience and value while also helping with portion and calorie control. Here are some of the reasons you can rely on frozen foods when planning meals:<\/p>\n<p>Freezing Locks in Freshly Prepared Goodness<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Freezing is a natural method of preservation that upholds quality, prolongs shelf life and retains nutritional value by immediately locking in goodness.<\/li>\n<li>Many frozen foods are freshly prepared, quickly frozen and kept that way until you\u2019re ready to enjoy.<\/li>\n<li>Many frozen fruits and vegetables are processed within hours of harvest helping to lock-in their vitamins and minerals, as well as preserving their quality.<\/li>\n<li>According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, frozen fruits and vegetables are equally nutritious to their fresh and canned counterparts.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Frozen Foods offer Variety and Convenience<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Frozen foods are always at-the-ready. A fresh tasting, nutritious meal is just minutes away when you have a well-stocked freezer.<\/li>\n<li>Most frozen entr\u00e9es can be cooked directly from the freezer, with no additional preparation needed.<\/li>\n<li>Variety is the spice of life \u2013 and important for a healthy diet. Keeping a wide variety of frozen foods on hand, including fruits, vegetables and nutritious frozen entr\u00e9es, makes it easier to consume a varied diet.<\/li>\n<li>Frozen fruits and vegetables know all seasons \u2013 you can enjoy them all year long.<\/li>\n<li>Using frozen foods lets you cook just the amount you need to make a delicious and nutritious meal at home \u2013 that means less waste and more money saved.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Fitting Frozen into a Healthy Diet<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Most frozen foods are comparable nutritionally to many homemade recipes. Check out the calories, fat and sodium amounts, and you be the judge.<\/li>\n<li>Watching your weight? Frozen entr\u00e9es are pre-portioned, so it\u2019s easier to keep calories in check.<\/li>\n<li>Heating a frozen entr\u00e9e is just as fast \u2013 or faster \u2013 than picking up take-out.<\/li>\n<li>Frozen foods are budget-friendly. Frozen fruits and vegetables are frequently less expensive than their fresh counterparts. And, taking a frozen entr\u00e9e to work for lunch is often more economical than eating at the cafeteria or a restaurant.<\/li>\n<li>Because frozen foods feature both nutrition labels and ingredient statements, you know exactly what you\u2019ve chosen to eat.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><em>Named one of \u201cThe World\u2019s Most Admired Food Companies\u201d in Fortune magazine for seventeen consecutive years, Nestl\u00e9 provides quality brands that bring flavor to life every day.\u00a0 From nutritious meals with Lean Cuisine\u00ae to baking traditions with Nestl\u00e9\u00ae Toll House\u00ae, Nestl\u00e9 USA makes delicious, convenient, and nutritious food and beverages that make good living possible.\u00a0 That\u2019s what \u201cNestl\u00e9.
