Amy's Light & Lean frozen meals

November 5, 2010

 

Natural and organic  foods specialist Amy's, Santa Rosa, Calif., says its new frozen entrees won't weigh you down with the wrong types of ingredients.

Even the name, Amy's Light & Lean Meals, says it all. Amy's says the new line has four meals ($4.89 each) each containing fewer than 300 calories, 5 grams of fat, and 590 mg of sodium.

"Amy’s Light & Lean Meals were created in response to consumer requests for meals that would fit their diet plans," the company says. "As with all Amy’s products, Light & Lean Meals are organic, vegetarian, and are made without the use of trans fats or GMOs."

New varieties include:

Amy’s Light & Lean Pasta & Veggies: Rotini pasta tossed in a light tomato sauce and tender shallots, organic asparagus spears and broccoli florets. The meal contains just 210 calories, 5 grams fat, and 470 mg sodium.

Amy’s Light & Lean Spinach Lasagna: Lasagna layered with ricotta, Parmesan and mozzarella cheeses and organic spinach, then covered with Amy’s special tomato pasta sauce. The meal contains only 250 calories, 5 grams fat, and 540 mg sodium.

Amy’s Light & Lean Soft Taco Fiesta: Two soft corn tortillas layered with brown rice, shredded vegetables, sweet corn, black beans and cheese, flavored with a blend of tomatillo and ranchero sauces. This gluten-free meal has just 220 calories, 4.5 grams fat, and 560 mg sodium.
 
Amy’s Light & Lean Black Bean & Cheese Enchilada: A mixture of organic black beans, tofu, brown rice, vegetables and cheese tucked into a tortilla covered with tomatillo and ranchero sauces. Organic brown rice with carrots and sweet corn complete the meal. This gluten-free meal contains 240 calories, 4.5 grams fat and 480 mg sodium.
