One of the best things to try, if you’re hoping to eat more veggies, is to take all the guesswork (and prep work) out of the cooking process. You know, make it feel like less of an ordeal. Well, friends, the year is 2021 and the freezer aisle (at pretty much every single grocery store) makes it possible to do just that. Gone are the days when waterlogged broccoli was the only side dish we had to choose from. Nowadays, there’s a whole slew of new, flavorful, fun frozen veggie shortcuts.

Here are 10 convenient, time-saving, and new-to-the-freezer-aisle options that make eating lots of veggies a breeze. The best part is that you don’t even have to go to a specialty grocery store to find them. I found all of these items at Publix , Ingles Market , and Target .

2. Green Giant Simply Steam with Dash Salt-Free Seasoning

If you like your frozen veggies plain and simple, you’re going to love these new offerings from Green Giant. As the packaging suggests, these are a simple blend of steamed broccoli, cauliflower, roasted potatoes, carrots, red bell pepper, and onions seasoned with Dash salt-free seasoning, tossed in a bit of olive oil. I enjoy the Lemon Pepper variety , but there’s also a Garlic and Herb flavor, which sounds tasty too.

These new crispy broccoli tots are a great way to get kids and adults alike to eat more veggies. Because the broccoli is paired with potatoes and cauliflower, the flavor of these crispy bites is more mellow and tot-like than you might expect.

Late last year, Healthy Choice released a bunch of new plant-based options within its Power Bowls line.
