That's why the weight loss company has come up with a vast menu of fast, fully-prepared meals that taste amazing and take the guesswork out of portion size and counting calories. Sound too good to be true? Feast your eyes on 10 indulgent Jenny Craig foods that can actually help you slim down.

1. Cinnamon Rolls

Any food item with "rolls" in its name might not seem ideal for weight loss. But at 190 calories and with 7 grams of protein, 3 grams of fiber and only 4 grams of fat for two, these cinnamon-swirled rolls are the exception. Sweet, delectable and drizzled with icing, Jenny Craig's Cinnamon Rolls taste good enough to give their more calorie-laden counterparts some serious competition.

2. Pepperoni Pizza

Jenny Craig has mastered the difficult art of making a mouthwateringly-good frozen pizza. The Pepperoni Pizza features tangy tomato sauce, reduced-fat provolone/part-skim mozzarella cheese combo, slightly spicy pepperoni, and a mix of garlic, basil and paprika, atop a thin, crispy crust. Best of all, the two flavorful slices are 210 calories.
