Back In Business

I wanted to take a quick second and apologize to all of you for the lack of dedication I've given this blog lately!! But, the good news is I'M BACK!!!! I need this blog just as much as some of you that read it have told me you do! It helps hold me accountable and gives all of you hopefully some new tasty meals for your families!

I will be making some changes. I was doing daily entries there for a while but to be honest, it's too difficult to keep up with daily and come up with new ideas to make every day. Sometimes I just want to cook a pot of spaghetti and not worry about coming up with a new dish for the blog. Sooooo... I will be doing one entry a week.

If anyone has any requests for a meal that you want to see lightened up let me know in the comments and I'll get on it!

I'm so excited to be back in business and get this blog up and going again! I hope you all enjoy it as much as I do!

Easy Chicken Stirfry



Tonight I wanted a super quick and easy meal, so I thought STIR FRY!! But not just any stir fry this is the easiest quickest stir fry on the planet. Who REALLY wants to sit there and cut up a gazillion different veggies and chicken and then turn around and cook it all? Not me after a day full of cleaning, laundry and the duties of a mother! So I decided to try the frozen bag of broccoli stir fry I picked up on sale at walmart and can I just say YUM!!!!!!!!!!!!

Here's What You Need:
1 pkg frozen walmart brand broccoli stir fry ($1.98)

2 chicken breasts ($3.35)
1 green bell pepper ($0.70)
1 pkg brown rice ($2.64)

Here's How To Do It:
1. Cut up the chicken into cubes and season to taste. **I chose to season my chicken with sea salt, pepper, garlic powder and herbs de providence (I dunno that's what the lid says lol)**
2. Put the chicken and the frozen package of stir fry in a skillet on medium heat. (I chose to put a splash of low sodium soy sauce in here as well) When the chicken is about 2-3 minutes from being done put in the green bell peppers.

3. While all this is going cook your rice as directed on the package. Rice is optional. You could have just the chicken stir fry without a starch.

This meal is super easy and a tastes delicious and the best part is it costs about $6 to make and feed a family of 4!

Hope you all enjoy!
