3 Quick And Easy Meal Suggestions

Having a large family means that you usually seem to be short of time. Preparation for the evening meal usually appears to take so long. Bearing in mind how busy we all are, I have below a selection of quick and simple recipes.

1) Chicken Tortillas

Acquire chicken that's already ready for stir frying or satay from your local chicken supplier such as Leonards, saving a lot of time. Whilst there buy a packet of tortillas, a lettuce, tomato and cheese if you have none at home.

Preparation consists of heating up a pan and putting in the chicken. Although the chicken is cooking, rapidly chop up the lettuce and tomato and heat the tortillas in the microwave for thirty seconds. Set out the dinner table with the lettuce etc. Now the chicken will probably be prepared. Location it in a bowl and serve it on the table by the side of the compliments. Enable the family to create up their own tortillas - helping out younger children under 5. I do it this way - lay a tortillas on the plate and put a line of hot chicken down. Next I add the cheese to ensure that it is going to melt. And lastly the lettuce and tomato. Fold up the bottom of the tortillas and then roll up - eat and enjoy. Cleaning up afterwards is minimal as you've got only utilized 1 frying pan along with a few plates.

2) Haystacks

Comparable concept, but as opposed to tortillas and chicken you'll be making use of beans, nachos and sour cream. As soon as once more you need the salad ingredients of lettuce and tomato, and cheese ( preferably half morzarella).

Buy a can of your favorite Mexican chili beans. Heat in a pot.

Get a huge pizza dish and lay them a bed of nachos chips. Next sprinkle on the cheese, should you use mozzarella then it is going to melt better under the grill. Place under a grill. When cheese is melted (and prior to the nachos burn) eliminate. You serve out the nachos and cheese, put on the hot beans, and then tomato, lettuce, and/or sour cream as the individual likes. (you are able to skip the lettuce if you want). Tastes great.

Clean up - serving plates, one pot and one pizza dish.

3) Baked Bean Buns

This recipe is even simpler still. Cut a Hamburger bun in half. Cook a can of baked beans in a pot on the stove. When hot spoon beans onto the bun, put cheese on top - location under griller. EatClean up - one pot, serving plates. Tip, line the grill tray with foil to save the cleaning up of melted cheese from the grill pan.

These meals are simple to create and taste fantastic. In case you are searching for a low calorie option, use low fat cheese.
