12 of Our Favorite Frozen Foods

This bargain-basement meal — seriously, you can sometimes find boxes of it on sale for $1 — reminds me of the Tex-Mex I grew up on in El Paso, TX. It's not authentic. It's not even really "good." But it tastes great. Mix black beans and rice, a gooey sour-cream sauce, stringy, hot cheese that gets a little burned around the corners, and a kick of mild green chile and I am in.
