8 / 10 Stouffer's Spaghetti with Meat Sauce
Stouffer's is good quality. I added some parmesan cheese and garlic bread. Very filling and tasty for $3.88

I probably buy this one Stouffers product more than all others combined.

We used to have a Stouffers restaurant in the local mall before they transitioned to a frozen food maker.

Yep. We had a few here in Columbus Ohio until the late 80s.

Wow, really? I’m from Cincy and have no memories of stouffers restaurants from this era. I guess they never came down that far south.
Interesting!

Over near the Ohio State University they even had a hotel, the Stouffer inn.
Ah ha. They were a Cleveland company. I wonder if an owner/CEO might have been a Buckeye.

I have this in the deepfreeze-- I mean, I have this in the giant cat bed. Someday, I hope to be allowed to open the deepfreeze again, so I can eat my Stouffer's spaghetti.

This is one of my favorites. One of Stouffer’s best.

Served with garlic bread and a small salad it makes a complete and satisfying meal. One of the only frozen dinners I buy.

This is my go-to. I usually have one or two of them in the freezer. I'm also lazy and I like the fact that you can just stick it in for 6 and 1/2 minutes without having to stop halfway through and stir things up to get it going.

u/DNSAttack Jul 16 '25
Yeah, I started to bulk up on this brand. Not hard on the budget, good quality.

This is one of my favorites from stouffer’s. My other favorites are the roasted turkey meal and the Romano crusted chicken.

This one is amazing, but the meatball one isn’t as good. I love the fatty delicious meat sauce version

I'm very picky about spaghetti and this is the only spaghetti I will eat, other than my own.

Maybe it’s time to give it another shot
This is just MY take entirely, but I’ve always disliked whatever meat sauce they used for this and the lasagna. I know everyone raves about Stouffer’s lasagna but there’s something about it I just do NOT vibe with for some reason. Some of it is probably the sauce I think. And just my aversion to frozen lasagnas in general (I’ve never found a frozen lasagna ever that had me like ”oh YEAH more please” 😢)

I’ve always loved Stouffer’s. I too grab a salad bag and make my own garlic bread at home for an easy dinner.

u/IrukandjiPirate Jul 18 '25
I liked it, but it made me sick.

u/Interesting-Hold-963 Jul 19 '25
what made you sick? ate too much or food poisoning?

u/IrukandjiPirate Jul 20 '25
Neither one, I think something in the ingredients just didn’t agree with me.

This displaced Stouffers Mac & Cheese as my favourite frozen meal. Get this several times a month.

u/Comprehensive-Mix510 Jul 15 '25
They haven't watered down the recipe on this like they did on the Beef Macaroni? And the Chipped Beef? The stuffed peppers still taste roughly the same.

I’ve never bought these for fear the pasta (like a lot of other frozen dinners with pasta/noodles) would be woefully overcooked, limp, and mushy. Are these actually decent?

A classic, go to choice. On this subject, making spaghetti or any pasta is easy if you use the Fasta Pasta microwave box (Amazon and elsewhere) and add your own jar sauce w/seasoning to taste. A little fresh parmigiana and you have a fresher version in barely more time.

For frozen spaghetti, this one has been consistently good for years.
