12 Frozen Foods You Should Always Grab From Dollar Tree

Dollar Tree's frozen aisle is less about finding a cheaper imitation of a national brand and more about deciding whether a smaller package of a familiar product beats the grocery store on price. Depending on the location, shoppers may find Michelina's entrées, Jimmy Dean breakfast sandwiches, Bibigo dumplings, TGI Fridays appetizers, and popular freezer treats.

That matters when shopping for one or two people, preparing quick lunches, or keeping convenient meals on hand without filling the freezer with multipacks. However, a low shelf price does not automatically mean you will save on groceries. Cost per ounce, servings per package, and comparable grocery prices all matter. Here are 12 frozen foods worth checking, including a few convenient options that aren't necessarily the cheapest.

Editor's note: Prices and availability are subject to change and may vary by location.

Price: $1.25

Michelina's Beef & Broccoli is an easy first pick. Dollar Tree lists the 9.6-ounce tray for $1.25, or approximately 13 cents per ounce. In a 2026 taste test, Sporked rated the meal 8 out of 10, praising its tangy sauce and small broccoli pieces. It is closer to a quick lunch than a generous dinner, but the price makes it a useful alternative to a larger frozen meal.

Price: $3

Banquet MEGA Bowls Country Fried Chicken costs $3 for 14 ounces, or roughly 21 cents per ounce. The tray combines chicken, mashed potatoes, corn, and gravy for a filling dinner with no extra prep. Sporked's taste testers rated this meal 9 out of 10. Keep the nutrition label in mind, though, as Dollar Tree lists 1,460 milligrams of sodium per bowl, making it less suitable for shoppers following a low-sodium diet.

Price: $1.25

Banquet's 7-ounce chicken pot pie costs $1.25 at Dollar Tree, approximately 18 cents per ounce. That is a convenient single-serving option, but it is not necessarily the best unit-price deal. Walmart lists the same size for $1, or around 14 cents per ounce. The pot pie still makes sense for someone buying one lunch at a time, but shoppers with freezer space should compare prices before purchasing several.

Price: $1.50

A Jimmy Dean sausage-and-egg English muffin sandwich is listed for $1.50 per 3.6-ounce sandwich, adding up to 42 cents per ounce. It is practical for shoppers who only need one serving. Check the nutrition panel, though. Dollar Tree lists 680 milligrams of sodium per sandwich, an important consideration for anyone monitoring sodium intake at breakfast.

Price: $3.25

Bibigo steamed chicken-and-vegetable dumplings are a great deal. Dollar Tree lists a 6.6-ounce package for $3.25, or approximately 49 cents per ounce. Walmart lists its 6.59-ounce package for about $4, equivalent to roughly 61 cents per ounce. The included dipping sauce adds convenience, and the dumplings make a useful quick lunch, rice accompaniment, or small appetizer.

Price: $1.25

TJ Farms Stir Fry Veggies costs $1.25 for 12 ounces, or approximately 10.4 cents per ounce. The bell pepper-and-onion mixture is useful in fried rice, omelets, soups, and skillet meals, with little chopping and no fresh scraps left behind. Walmart's 20-ounce Great Value pepper-and-onion blend works out to about 14.2 cents per ounce, making Dollar Tree the better deal.

Price: $3

Tj Farms Frozen Blueberries are a great freezer find. The 20-ounce bag is listed at $3, or 15 cents per ounce. Walmart's 12-ounce Great Value frozen blueberries are listed at $3.24, approximately 27 cents per ounce. The larger Dollar Tree bag is a good deal for households that regularly prepare breakfast with fruit or make smoothies throughout the week.

Price: $5

TGI Fridays Cream Cheese Stuffed Jalapeño Poppers are worth considering when putting out snacks for company. The listed 8-ounce box costs $5, equivalent to 62.5 cents per ounce. Treat these as a specialty party purchase rather than a routine freezer staple, and compare grocery-store promotions before buying.

Price: $5

TGI Fridays Spinach & Artichoke Cheese Dip is another fun party option, priced at $5 for 8 ounces, or approximately 63 cents per ounce. The dip is convenient for an impromptu gathering, but it is only worth purchasing at Dollar Tree when your local alternative costs more or convenience justifies the difference.

Price: $5

Arby's Seasoned Curly Fries offer a takeout-style side at home. Dollar Tree lists the 22-ounce bag for $5, or approximately 23 cents per ounce. Buy these for their familiar seasoning or a particular meal, rather than assuming they offer the best savings.

Price: $1.25

Celeste Pizza for One is listed at $1.25 for a 5.9-ounce original cheese pizza, or 21 cents per ounce. Walmart lists the same size for $1.28, putting Dollar Tree slightly ahead in this comparison. It makes sense as a small lunch or quick snack without leaving a larger pizza in the freezer.

Price: $5

Good Humor Strawberry Shortcake bars are one of the better deals. Dollar Tree lists six bars totaling 18 fluid ounces for $5, or about 83 cents per bar and 28 cents per fluid ounce. Walmart lists the same package for $5.87, approximately 32.6 cents per fluid ounce. They are handy for a family treat or small gathering, and the Dollar Tree is the cheapest option.

The strongest candidates for buying more than one are Michelina's Beef & Broccoli, Bibigo dumplings, TJ Farms blueberries, and Good Humor Strawberry Shortcake bars. The TJ Farms pepper-and-onion mixture is another good pick if those vegetables are used regularly in your cooking. These products are a great way to avoid wasting money compared to other grocery listings, although availability is unpredictable.

Be more cautious with Banquet pot pies, TGI Fridays dip, and Arby's curly fries, where grocery-store prices may beat Dollar Tree. Some budget frozen sandwiches also receive mixed reviews. Try one package before stocking up, check the ounce count every time, and keep frozen groceries cold on the trip home.
