[quote=Anonymous]A few easy ones we like

[b]
Cabbage and Kielbasa[/b]

Cut up kielbasa, half a white cabbage, and onion or two, dump in the pot

dump in a bag of baby carrots, and some little potatoes (or bigger potatoes that you scrubbed and cut, but it's way faster if you buy the already washed bag of little potatoes.  You can leave out the potatoes if you are lower carb)

Add 1/2 a cup to a cup of water (I don't measure)

Put a lid on, bring to a boil and then turn low, let it steam for about 1/2 an hour.

This makes good leftovers.

[b]Roast Chicken Dinner[/b]

Rotisserie chicken from the grocery store,

baked sweet potatoes in the microwave (or sweet potato fries in the oven/air fryer if you have more time),

frozen peas cooked in the microwave with a little butter.

[b]Sausage and apples[/b]

Crumble Italian sausage (we like hot for this now, but my kids liked sweet when they were little), brown it,

while it's browning, cut up some granny smith apples and add them,

keep stirring until apples are soft and sausage is crispy.

Serve with caesar salad from a bag, or steamed broccoli, or something else green.

[b]Fried Rice[/b]

Heat some oil in a pan,

add some garlic (minced from a jar) and cauliflower rice (get it raw, not frozen, it makes a big difference) and and some chopped onion stir till it gets a little browned,

(if you have leftover rotisserie chicken, or pork chop or other meat, you can add that here, and stir till it's a little browned, you can also add ground pork or ground chicken)

add brown rice (steam in the bag, or precooked is fine, or white rice left over from when you ordered Chinese food.  Once it's heated and browned a little,

add soy sauce to taste (literally drizzle some in, stir, taste decide if you want to add more),

make a well in the middle, crack an egg, stir, then let it cook until it's opaque,

mix the egg with the rice, repeat that a few times, I usually aim for 1 egg per person

Add frozen shelled edamame, and frozen peas and carrots.  Stir till they are heated through.[/quote]
