My go to fast meal is cooking chicken or pork in a skillet with some onions and garlic.
Adding a frozen veggie as a side. And also a side salad. If my husband is really hungry, I add some toast or warm bread that we have on hand.
Another fast and fun meal is making a homemade pizza. I get the Pillsbury Pizza Crust.
Add spaghetti or tomato sauce and whatever veggies I have on hand or extra meat I may have leftover.
It bakes up so fast! Just cook the crust, top with your ingredients and put back in the oven for like 10 minutes.0 -
