 From the one in my pantry right now:

Tasty Bite "Agra Peas and Greens"

10.59 oz
Keeps indefinitely.  I don't know if it would freeze solid or not.
Probably
still be okay if it did.

Cost:  dunno.  $2-3, maybe?

One package has 520 calories, 28g of fat.  (No cholesterol.  :)
8g protein, 26g carbs.  Technically two servings.  Ha!

Cooking time:  boil unopened package for 3-5 minutes.  The package
itself is some kind of heavy foil.  Very durable.
