A trip to the grocery store can add up. To overcome this, many shoppers are exploring new ways to save money. One effective strategy to reduce costs is meal planning. A new survey from the National Frozen & Refrigerated Foods Association (NFRA) revealed nearly all shoppers (99%) find inspiration in the frozen food aisle; with four out of five consumers (83%) finding it easier to meal plan with frozen foods.

Shoppers may not be aware of the many benefits of frozen food. Today’s frozen food aisles offer healthy choices that fit any diet preference or lifestyle and go from freezer to oven or microwave with little to no prep. Frozen meals can include fruits and vegetables picked at peak ripeness, when they are most nutritious, then flash-frozen to retain those nutrients.

Just in time for National Frozen Food Month in March, Chef & TV personality Jamie Gwen will be available to share convenient, chef-inspired mealtime ideas for busy families. Whether it’s comfort foods, healthy items or innovative new cuisines, frozen foods can save the day – and you don’t need to sacrifice flavor OR nutrition.
