I’ve started receiving a lot of questions about Nutrisystem’s new program which includes “gourmet” or restaurant quality frozen meals. This is somewhat different from the prepackaged meals that typically only require minimal assembly. This new line of meals is described as “fresh frozen” and is marketed under the name “select.” So, in the following article, I will give you an overview of the foods offered, the program itself, and the cost.An Overview Of Nutrisystem’s “Fresh Frozen” Line (AKA “Select”): Basically, this line gives you basically half “fresh frozen” meals and half of the “regular basic items.” So, when you do go to this page of the company’s website, you might see some foods that you recognize. However, there are several new “gourmet” frozen items that are available. Specifically, there are around 25 additional options. This plan has been very well received, so I would not be at all surprised to see a lot more new additions to this lineup in the future. Below, I’ll outline exactly what foods have been added.Nutrisystem Select Breakfast Options: I honestly think that the basic plan’s breakfast is really good. I get by just fine with this without needing to upgrade. However, even I have to admit that the new pancakes and French toast are pretty delicious. There is also a vegetable frittata, a veggie omelet, and a turkey and egg breakfast sandwich. These are all good, but as a carb – lover, I’m more fond of the pancakes and toast.Nutrisystem Select Lunch Additions: Under the lunch category, we’ve gotten several new sandwiches which are very welcome. I have always felt that the lunch selections were the skimpiest, as there are a lot of soups on the basic plan. So, they have now added a ham and cheese melt, a steak and cheese melt, a chicken fajita, and vegetable or margarita pizza. All of these are quite tasty and as sandwiches weren’t really represented before, this will likely be very well received.Nutrisystem Select Dinner Selections: There are a lot of Asian selections that have been added here. And there are a lot of thick and savory sauces. If you order these items individually, you’ll see that they are the most expensive items that you can buy a la carte. In truth, they are worth it. These dinner entrées are really where you can see a huge difference in the taste and sometimes in texture. If there was one place where I would fight tooth and nail to get the “fresh frozen” foods, it would be in the dinners. They have added Asian beef, steak with portabella mushrooms, roast turkey, glazed chicken, shrimp alfredo, and ravioli.Snacks And Desserts: As with the breakfasts, I’ve always felt that the basic plan covered the desserts and snack pretty well. I mean, where else can you have candy bars, strawberry shortcake, and chocolate brownies? So, I have no complaints about these things – frozen or not. But this new line has added in some awesome ice cream sandwiches, a fudge swirl, blueberry parfait, apple crisp, peach crisp, and chocolate and orange bars. I’m extremely fond of the parfait and the crisp.Now, the new select line is bit pricier. In general, you’re looking at around $4 per meal or around $350 per month (although this is before coupons that can really help.) Still, this is for five meals per day. I don’t think that you can do much better than this for basic groceries. And, it’s very hard to come up with decent tasting meals that are low enough in calories and carbs to get you in ketosis, so I firmly believe that this is worth every penny. However, I also know that the basic plan is the most popular out there. So not every one thinks this upgrade is necessary. But, if you’re a ‘foodie” or if fresh frozen meals are important to you, then you will likely be pleasantly surprised with how good these are.
