Stouffer's is known for such popular fare as lasagna, macaroni and cheese, meatloaf, ravioli, fettuccine Alfredo, and salisbury steak. Nestlé Meals also produces a line of reduced-fat products under the Lean Cuisine brand name. This was originally a Stouffer's subline, marketed under the name Stouffer's Lean Cuisine.

In the early 1960s, Stouffer's worked with noted chef Louis Szathmary to develop new frozen food products, including its classic spinach souffle.^[3] In 2024, Nestlé Meals introduced Stouffer's Supreme, a line of shelf-stable dried mac and cheese products, the first non-frozen items sold under the Stouffer's name.^[4][5]
