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."

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.
