Since the GreenWise frozen organic broccoli florets are already washed and chopped, you don't have to spend extra time chopping them up before you start cooking. You can pour it straight from the bag onto a baking sheet, into a pan, or into a pot without any prep work. At just a little over eight dollars for a 32-ounce bag, it's a pretty solid deal and can save you quite a bit of money in your budget if you cook a lot.

  • Price: $2.75

If you don't like broccoli but still want to add more fiber to your diet, consider getting the Birds Eye Steamfresh mixed vegetables.

This frozen mix contains corn, carrots, green beans, and peas, and is made without artificial flavors, colors, or preservatives. It works well as a simple side, but it's also easy to stir into rice, pasta, soups, or ramen to make meals more filling.

  • Price: $9.97

Stouffer's family-size lasagna is filling and easy to serve when you do not want to cook from scratch. This family-size lasagna is made with 100% beef, tomato sauce and real mozzarella cheese. Plus, it can serve up to five people, which works out to roughly two dollars per person. It's much cheaper than ordering takeout since you won't have to pay for delivery fees or tips.



It's easy to prepare as well. All you have to do is bake it in the oven for 65 minutes, or heat it in the microwave on high for nine minutes, then 16 minutes on 50% power.

  • Price: $11.59

Every freezer needs at least one dependable frozen pizza, and Home Run Inn's family-size classic cheese pizza is a solid option under $15. Their pizza dough comes topped with the same all-natural ingredients that they use in their Chicagoland pizzerias, including premium mozzarella cheese.

This frozen cheese pizza can come in handy for casual dinners, low-key gatherings, or nights when you want something easy that everyone will eat.

Price: $7.29

No grocery run is complete without getting dessert. The Publix strawberry ice cream is only around seven dollars for a half-gallon, which is pretty affordable compared to other brands like Ben & Jerry's or Häagen-Dazs, where a much smaller container can easily cost the same or more.
