Shopping in the frozen aisle doesn't have to be unhealthy. Skip the typical TV dinners and opt for a low-calorie meal that just requires a little heating up. Dietitian Julie Upton, MS, RD, of Appetite for Health [2] recommends these delicious options if you're looking for something you can store in the freezer, plus she gives some ideas for dessert — perfect for a low-key night when cooking just isn't on the menu.

Option 1: Amy's Mexican Casserole Bowl

Add some spice to your life with this zesty and hearty Mexican casserole bowl [3] (380 calories), then finish off your meal with a six-ounce container of nonfat plain Greek yogurt [4] (100 calories) for dessert.

Option 2: Amy's Single Serve Margherita Pizza

Heat up this cheesy pie [5] (400 calories) for dinner, and treat yourself to 1/2 cup of reduced-fat frozen yogurt [6] (100 calories) for dessert.
