Ready to eat

Hello!
Are there burgers or other meat (steaks?) that we buy them cooked and frozen and we heat them in the microwave and eat them?
Do they sell peeled boiled eggs?
I am talking about Lidl, Tesco, Sainsbury, Aldi, Farmfoods only.
Thanks!

    Don't know about frozen, but Tesco and Sainsbury's both sell the Rustlers burgers which are cooked and chilled and you then microwave them - they include the bun

    You can buy pickled boiled eggs but you wont save anything compared to the boil-your own type and the picked type will also taste of vinegar. Some supermarkets offer a fresh counter where you can buy already peeled boiled eggs but beware of whose hands may have already touched them before you...(not all customers have a sound idea of how good hygiene works) and if the idea of free range hens/eggs matters to you, there is no way to know either way if either of the options I've mentioned are free range (and IMO I'd place bets on them not being).
    Some sandwich bars will sell ready-to-eat packs of eggs but at upwards of £1 or £2 for two boiled eggs it's an expensive way of buying things when you can buy a pack of fresh raw eggs for £0.89.
  • Tesco asda etc sell frozen burgers in buns etc you can microwave also paninis etc too, also seen omletes but not noiled eggs.
    wouldn't recommend them personally, I can manage a rustlers burger from fridge but not the frozen ones

    Boil your own eggs and they will keep in the fridge for several days. It'll save you a lot of money.

    Make your own burgers, cook them and freeze - very easy to do and again will save you money.

    Morrisons, Poundland, Waitrose & Boots all sell peeled boiled eggs: never seen them in Tesco or Lidl, don't have access to Aldi, Sainsburys of Farmfoods so I don't know - but they are out there!

    Eggs is just wrong, why'd you need to buy those? Unless you've a jolly good reason for it, it's madness as they're super expensive for what costs 8p each to make yourself. You can get egg nukers, it's how I boil ALL my eggs.

    Burgers, there are the burger packs, or in L1dl/4ldi look for packs of Frikadellen. Or you can nuke frozen/raw ones from any shop.

    Sometimes the real answer comes from explaining why you're looking for such things in the first instance. What "problem" are you trying to solve. and under what conditions and with what other constraints?

    Rustlers do various vacuum packed burgers in buns that just need microwaving. I don't know if they're nice or not as I haven't tried them, but they have them in the snack food chiller in most supermarkets.
