Lean Cuisine Diet

Lean Cuisine, established in the year 1981, is a brand of frozen, but healthy entrees and dinners meant for those who want to lose weight, but suffer from a lack of time to indulge in exercise or plan special, low-fat meals. Sold in the United States, Canada, and Australia, by Nestlé, it offers pre-made meals that can help you control your portions, eat foods lower in fat and reduce your caloric intake. At present, its range includes traditional dinners, ethnic dishes, pizzas, whole grain Spa Cuisine entreés, and panini.

 

 

When it comes to breakfast, Lean Cuisine diet suffers from its absence. It does not offer a breakfast entrée. So, if you are planning to adopt this diet, it will be your own responsibility to dish up a healthy, low fat meal. Some of the best choices for you are low-fat yogurt with an apple or orange, a cup of oatmeal with low-fat sweetener and even a high-fiber, low-sugar cereal with skim milk and strawberries.

 

When it comes to lunch, you couldn’t have asked for more from the Lean Cuisine diet. There are so many options that you would hardly feel bored following the diet. The best part is that all the options are healthy and low-fat. For instance, you can have Chicken with Almonds (250 calories, 4g fat), Beef Portobello (220 calories, 6g fat) or even Deluxe French Bread Pizza (340 calories, 10g fat).

 

Lean Cuisine offers six different types of meals, of which one category is specifically meant for dinner, termed as ‘Dinner Selects’. The options range from Grilled Chicken & Penne Pasta (330 calories, 4.5g fat) and Jumbo Rigatoni with Meatballs (390 calories, 8g fat) to Lemon Garlic Shrimp (350 calories, 7g fat) and Steak Tips Dijon (280 calories, 7g fat).

 

Lean Cuisine Diet offers you six different types of meals, all of which come with a main course, a side of vegetables and rice or potatoes. Here, we have given a limited list of dishes under each type of meal.
