The healthiest meals in your supermarket’s freezer aisle – from Sainsbury’s to M&S, the short-cut dinners that are even better than the fresh version

Dietitians say frozen food can be a nutritious, convenient choice and may cost less than fresh produce. British Frozen Food Federation figures cited in the article put a typical portion of frozen vegetables at 33p, compared with 51p for fresh, while experts say some vegetables retain nutrients better when frozen.

The article reviews frozen supermarket dinners chosen by dietitians, highlighting their calories, protein, fibre, sugar, saturated fat and salt. Examples include a 373-calorie meal with 10g of fibre and 35g of protein, Asda noodles with 21g of protein, and a chicken dinner with 330 calories; the excerpt also flags that salt can be a concern, particularly for children.
