Sam's Club Shoppers Swear By These Frozen Foods

You've probably already got some great go-to items on your Sam's Club shopping list. A family-sized pack of eight toothbrushes? Check. Top-rated wine perfectly priced at just under $10? Check (and sip). Giant bag of charcoal for an impromptu barbecue? Check, char-grill, and check. You're good for the year.

But did you know there's a whole section of Sam's Club devoted to saving you time and money while providing fresh taste all in one go? You guessed it — it's the frozen foods section. Stocking your freezer with icy goods is a fantastic way to prevent waste, especially when you're buying in bulk at wholesale prices. And don't worry about whether you're getting shortchanged when it comes to nutrition: Even the USDA has debunked claims that freezing foods destroys nutrients. Best of all, you can enjoy the ease of popping a ready-made treat into your oven instead of slaving over a stove at the end of a long day.

Once relegated to being a last resort when Mom's out of town, frozen foods have come a long way since good ol' Hungry Man dinners and Mama Celeste pizzas. We've seen so many tempting options that we couldn't resist sharing some of these frozen finds with you. From breakfast winners to decadent desserts, we've rounded up the best of the freezer section for your dining pleasure. Grab your sweaters and let's eat our way through the coolest aisle (literally) in Sam's Club.

Some classics never go out of style and these crowd-pleasing Kellogg's Eggo Homestyle Waffles are no exception. With a 4.7 star rating on the Sam's Club site, shoppers swear by these fluffy discs of pure, crispy delight. Gone are the days of heating up a heavy waffle iron, spilling batter all over the counter, and throwing burnt remains out with the trash. Eggos can be prepared in a matter of minutes, no iron, no batter, no waste.

Sam's Club shoppers love these right out of the toaster, but they also share some mouthwatering tips for enjoying Eggos beyond traditional butter and syrup. Creative reviewers recommend serving the waffles with peanut butter and honey, Nutella, strawberry jam, and even chocolate sauce and ice cream as a decadent dessert. Serving up the waffles as a savory snack is also an option, according to Kellog's suggestions. Pair them with crispy bacon strips, eggs, cheese, and spinach for a hearty breakfast sandwich or top with hummus and veggies for a quick Mediterranean-style pizza.

Clocking in at 60 waffles per box, packaged in pouches for freshness, and containing nine vitamins and minerals per serving, these Eggo Homestyle Waffles offer great value, fluffy, crispy texture, and irresistible flavor. It's no surprise these delectable syrup catchers have inspired over 500 reviews at Sam's Club.

Just when you thought PB and Js couldn't get any better, Smucker's Uncrustables Peanut Butter & Grape Jelly Sandwiches elevate this timeless refreshment to near-legendary status. Cut into handy little rounds, Uncrustables consist of Smucker's classic grape jelly and creamy peanut butter sandwiched between two slices of wholesome wheat bread.

Uncrustable Sandwiches stand out from our list with the easiest prep directions ever: Take them out of the freezer and let stand for at least 30 minutes. That's it. You don't even need a microwave to thaw these babies. Best of all, there's no need to cut the crusts off for finicky kids — Smucker's has done the work for you already, ensuring no part of the sandwich ever goes to waste.

Sam's Club shoppers give this convenient treat a 4.6 star review, pointing out that Smucker's Uncrustables are good even when frozen. Parents love these for kids' lunchboxes, play dates, and picnics, and momma bloggers recommend these as an essential item on every grocery list. Reviewers love feeling like a kid again with these easy treats they can take to work and munch on throughout the day. With over 250 reviews, this freezer favorite is definitely worth a nostalgic walk down memory lane.

Dare we throw some veggies into this frozen food extravaganza? We've heard rumors that broccoli can be kind of good for you so we're adding these Member's Mark Steamable Broccoli Florets to the menu. You'll thank us for it someday.

These steamable florets are pretty painless to prepare, if not to eat. You can skip the rinsing and chopping business and get right to the fun part. The package itself is made for steaming your greens — there are four steamable bags inside of the outer packaging — so you can pop the whole bag in the microwave for five minutes and let stand for a minute. Carefully open the bag and pour those veggies out. Presto, your healthy vegetable side dish is ready for serving. Don't worry, traditionalists, there's an option of preparing them on the stovetop as well.

Reviewers describe these as a great frozen vegetable option that tastes fresh and is easy to prepare. One reviewer recommends roasting these frozen with olive oil, garlic, and salt. A number of shoppers point out that this particular brand is preferable to other frozen broccoli options because it offers good-sized florets as opposed to stems. With a high 4.7 star rating and over 200 reviews, these steamable treats might convince us eating our vegetables isn't so bad after all.

No grocery list is complete without pizza, the king of the frozen food jungle. Take it from us, this Italian food staple is a must in every freezer. Melted cheese, unlimited topping options, and tomato sauce on a bed of carbs — what's not to love? Even in a category where you can't go wrong, there is a clear winner of the bunch: DiGiorno Rising Crust Pepperoni Pizza.

This reigning champ is one of the most reviewed frozen product on Sam's Club's site, with more than 1,000 reviews. Shoppers can't stop raving about the crispiness of the rising crust, generous amount of tomato sauce, and home-cooked taste. You can even try dipping the crust in ranch sauce or seasoned olive oil to enhance your pizza experience. Reviewers and bloggers frequently rank this as the best of all frozen pizzas and even picky pizza eaters are happy with this brand. If you think nothing gets easier than delivery, think again. Even busy moms prefer DiGiorno's Rising Crust Pizza to the ease of delivery.

Stock up on these frozen favorites and give yourself the gift of pizza anytime you crave it. With a 4.4 star rating and accolades from picky pizza eaters across the nation, you'll be munching away in great company.

The tide is high and we're sailing happily through the frozen aisle for some more seafood, matey. Throw a bag of this Frozen Raw Easy Peel Shrimp into your boat (or shopping cart) and let the surf 'n' turf festivities begin! Already deveined and split, these maritime goodies are simple to prepare for a quick and classy meal at home.

Now we know you can't always trust packaging, but numerous reviewers agree these frozen shrimp are easy to peel and "as good as fresh" shrimp. One reviewer even called it the "best bag of shrimp in the store." How many varieties of frozen shrimp your Sam's Club carries depends on your location, but this is still high praise indeed.

Shoppers have tried frying, grilling, baking, boiling, and steaming these, all to good effect. Can this versatile seafood choice get any better? Sure it can. Try Easy Peel Shrimp with cocktail sauce after boiling, put them in a salad, make some shrimp fried rice, or use a shrimp scampi recipe to spice up pasta night.

These frozen shrimp earned an impressive 4.6 star rating with almost 300 reviews on the Sam's Club website, so we're definitely adding this one to our grocery lists for the week. Oh hey, don't you still have that enormous bag of charcoal sitting in the garage? Maybe it's time to throw some Frozen Raw Easy Peel shrimp on the barbie.

There's no excuse for forgetting dessert and we'll never do that to you, promise. Last but not least are these Member's Mark Cheesecake Miniatures, made with real cream cheese. Just thinking about cheesecake is enough to get our dopamine levels flying high but wait'll you get a taste of these beautifully decorated cake bites. Each package of cheesecake minis includes three classic flavors: traditional New York-style with a graham cracker crust, caramel chocolate chip on a chocolate cookie crust (there are actual chocolate chips on top!), and strawberry swirl on a graham cracker crust.

Seriously, what are you waiting for? If you're still deciding, maybe some reviewer comments will convince you. Shoppers called these mini cheesecakes "bites of perfect deliciousness," "elegant," and "just the right size." One reviewer tried preparing these for guests but her kids ate them up too quickly. For the lucky few who could sneak these cakes past their hordes of devouring children, they were great to serve at graduation parties, birthdays, open house events, church functions, baby showers, and office meetings. Several reviewers even served these bite-sized morsels at their wedding receptions!

It's no wonder these dreamy, creamy minis are Sam's Club's most reviewed frozen dessert item, ranking at 4.7 stars with 395 reviews. Prep is simple: Just thaw them in the fridge and serve chilled. One box includes 63 individually wrapped cheesecakes, so no one's going to catch you if you have seconds or thirds. Don't worry, we won't tell.
