There's this really handy thing right now from Hormel. It is "Compleats" and isn't frozen. Slide it out of the cardboard sleeve, nuke it 90 seconds, and it's very good. Not enough to fill you up, but it makes an easy lunch on the go because you can carry it in a purse.

I eat these on break at night when I work - it's the only thing I can get that's both hot and won't take my whole break to cook.
I was always told to preheat the oven with ready-meals because while the oven is preheating, the temperature is rising very quickly. This can cause problems with the container the food is in (assuming it isn't aluminum, and I think most aren't these days), possibly resulting in your food ending up all over your oven.
