Frozen food can be a great option for keeping your house stocked with healthy produce and meals—without the impending expiration dates. If you haven't spent much time in the frozen food aisle in recent years, we've got some great news for you: now, many health-focused brands offer nourishing and delicious options to choose from.

Not feeling a trip to the grocery store? There are also a number of food companies that deliver tasty, healthy frozen meals and ingredients to your door.

To help stock your own freezer, we've rounded up some of our favorite options available right now—to keep you well-fed for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

Daily Harvest Smoothies

Daily Harvest is a meal delivery service that offers a number of tasty plant-based options, like flatbreads, soups, harvest bowls, and more. One of our favorites is their ready-to-blend smoothies, like this ginger greens flavor, packed with banana, avocado, ginger, spinach, and flaxseeds.
