Homemade TV Dinners


Making your own TV Dinners is so easy! I usually take leftovers from dinner and portion them out and freeze them. I love using Tupperware for this because they go from the freezer to the microwave. This is a great way to provide dinner for your family on a night when you are away or don't want to cook. It provides a simple, healthy home cooked meal. So many of the frozen dinners from the grocery store have extra sodium, sugar and preservatives and I don't think they taste that great. This is an inexpensive home cooked alternative!

  1. Great idea! I have tried this before but after time all the containers I have tried melted in the mike or expanded and contracted and the containers became misshapen.

    What kind of Tupperware dish is that exactly????
