[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Other than crock pot meals, another idea is to make one meal on the weekend like a lasagna, cheesy broccoli chicken & rice casserole, enchiladas, etc. that can cover a dinner or two during the week. Super quick meals for us are breakfast for dinner and stir frys with pre chopped and washed veggies and usually shrimp since it cooks so fast. We like convenience foods from Trader Joes - fish nuggets, frozen meatballs in the crock pot with a jar of sauce, frozen turkey bolognese just cook pasta, chicken sausage sauteed w/fire grilled frozen onion/pepper mix, frozen brown rice that cooks in 3 minutes, etc. It's not perfect health food, but [b]it is usually better than take out or fast food.[/b] [/quote] Not much.[/quote] Depends on what you get for fast food, but I do think something like organic chicken sausage with sauteed veggies and organic brown rice is generally healthier, cheaper than fast food, and can be prepared in about 10 minutes. It sounded like OP is looking for some easy meals that aren't pizza or chicken nuggets. [/quote] Sounds perfectly nutritious to me, PP.[/quote]
