I know it is frowned upon in the culinary world to use frozen foods or eat frozen meals, but IDGAF, I love these:

I often keep White Castle boxes in my freezer as well as frozen taquitos.

oh man, those White Castles are good.

Also, out west there is a restaurant chain called Claim Jumper. They also have a line of frozen meals that are pretty good.

Not sure if this is a wide-ranging trend on menus or just a Houston fad, but a couple of places lately have been advertising campy "TV Dinner" nights. Haven't been to one yet and I'm not that interested, but it's becoming a "thing."

Both of those places have better food for less money on their regular menu, though. Well, Lowbrow not so much, but Hay Merchant for sure.

i'll have to tell my sister about these. 8th Wonder is one of her favorite spots.

In a similar vein, if someone did a school pizza dinner, I'd be there.

Do frozen fish sticks count? Super easy to cook/heat up. Throw 'em in some mac & cheese and you get an easy meal.
