Which ones taste the best?

Which Smart Ones are the Best?
 
The only ones I have found that are any good are the Cookie Dough Ice Cream Sundae, Choco Cake and the Mud Pie one that is not in the west any more. I know that is not what you wanted to know but this is my honest opinion.

Smart Ones
 
UNfortunatly we don't get them in Canada :( but I really like the Michelina's lifestyle light frozen dinners and the lean cuisine are good too.

Howdy all,
My family enjoys the chocolate eclairs. Three to a box is perfect for us!

My favorite is the Santa Fe Beans and Rice. I like it ALOT. I'd eat it even if it wasn't WW.

I've tried some others, most of which were OK, but none other stick out (there was a pasta that had celery in it that I didn't like, but I can't remember it).

My Mom really likes the Roast Turkey. It comes with mashed potatos. I thought it wasn't bad, but it wasn't my favorite.

The biggest thing I find with the Smart Ones is that sometimes you need something else to go with them to feel satisfied (maybe a salad or something). I think they are probably a good lunch size, although I have eaten them for dinner. Watch the sodium levels on them, they can be pretty high.

Hope this helps.

I absolutely love the vegetarian lasagna. It is pretty big and tastes like regular lasagna. Only 5 points. I have that and something else small for lunch and I am usually full.
The new WW bowls are also excellent. Southwestern chicken was excellent!

Of the ones that I have tried so far, the only one I would repeat is the Lasanga Bolgnese (no clue as to whether I spelled that right). I am still experimenting, but as someone mentioned earlier, Michelina's has several that I really like. I have found nothing in Healthy Choice, but we have Light Budget Gourmet that are pretty good. Problem is they all have so much sodium that those of us who need to keep an eye on that kind of thing may have problems.

I also agree with the post that said one small dinner wasn't enough. I have taken them to school, eaten them and thought, OK what's next. With a salad and a piece of fruit, they are great.

You just have to experiment. There are so many dinners out there!!!

My favorite is Santa Fe Style Rice and Beans. I also like their Macaroni and Cheese — I especially like it when I add leftover vegetables and mix it all together. Another favorite low-point is the Fiesta Chicken....only 3 pts....but you definitely need more to go with it!

I've tried some others but haven't really liked them all that much, but other friends I have like most all of them!

My fave is the meat lasagna - for 6pts its GOOD!! Not that big - but good for lunch with some fruit or a salad - definately. And I like the Lean Cuisine Chicken Enchilada - 5pts and pretty good.

Szechwan Chicken is quite spicy and is really good. I always add some extra veggies to it. I also like most of their rice bowls.

Another vote for the Sante Fe Rice & Beans dinner! I also very much like the Chicken Enchiladas Suiza entree.

Yet another vote for Sante Fe rice and Beans. I eat mine with one serving of Triscuits and use it kind of like a dip. I haven't had it in a while (its been a rough couple of months) so I don't remember the point info but I don't think it was a lot. With the two of them combined it's also more filling.

One other thing I like to do ~ if you like spinach ~ I add a 1/2 can of spinach to my Smart One Meal. It makes almost any of them really good! :)

Chicken fajita! I suspect it's like the rice and beans but with chicken too. Really good. It's a tad high at 6 points, but it's filling.

Diddo on the santa fe rice and beans, YUM!:)

I love the angle hair pasta for 3 pts, it has sliced zuchinni and mushrooms in it. I also really like the tuna noodle casserole but it has celery in it, in case you don't like it. Also the pepperoni pizza is very good, I have it alot. I have to agree with the others, finish the meal off with a salad and/or a piece of fruit.
