We are not exactly the most frugal bunch.

4.50 for a frozen lunch! Too much! You've got to google coupons for those then stack that when they go on sale! The most I buy for frozen meals is those yummy Lean Cuisine Market Creations (the ones in the bag), and they're around $4 (but I try to only buy them on sale). I pair that with a piece of garlic bread which I toast at work in our toaster oven if I want a big lunch.
If you're a carbaholic like me, frozen garlic bread is awesome. I buy french bread, cut it in three parts then split those in half, then put on some spreadable butter and garlic bread sprinkle, wrap them individually in aluminum foil and put them in the freezer. No need to even defrost, just stick it in the oven for a few minutes.
