12 time-saving meals found at Natural Products Expo East 2018

Quick meals look a lot different today than they did when T.V. dinners first launched back in the 1950s. Mushy globs of mystery meat? Tepid saccharine dessert? Preservatives galore? No way!

The brands that dished up convenient meals at Natural Products Expo East are changing the paradigm with chef-driven formulations (or should we call them recipes?), ultra-clean ingredients and limited sugar and sodium content.

Whether they be made in the microwave, stovetop or oven, these stellar meals ensure that eating healthy and eating fast never have to clash.
