Buying lunch from a grocery store.

Recently my posts have been few and far between. Between work, family situations, new opportunities and oral surgery I haven't had time to blog let alone cook. I had to move into my grandparents for a week last week and therefore had to find some creative lunch options for work that wouldn't impede on my grandparents fridge space. I shopped at sobeys, and superstore and ended up getting lunches for two weeks for under $20. The best thing is, the meals that I got are healthy, although higher in sodium than I like, and well balanced.

Both Sobeys and Superstore have their own brand of "freezer meals". They range from $2.00 to $3.00, which is cheaper than some sandwich fixin's. I ended up trying a few different options. Basil Chicken Pasta, Macaroni, and Tandoori Chicken. For the most part the meals were good, and what I appreciated is how well portioned they were. Although this isn't something I would purchase regulairly I am going to start keeping a few of these in my freezer for every once in a while and for rushed days where I need a put together lunch.
