Home-Cooked "Fast Food" In 20 - 30 minutes, you can turn pre-packaged food from mix into home cooked delicious! Pre-packaged foods are high in salt and most times have very strong flavor. Keep your family happy by simply adding 8 oz. to a pound of pasta to the flavored pasta dishes, or 1 or 2 cups of rice to the rice dishes. Make a main dish by adding seasoned strips of chicken, beef, or pork and rounding out the meal with a tossed salad. You can pick up the pre-cooked meat and the ready to serve salad at the grocery store to save even more time and energy. Watch the sales and use our coupon tips to make this mealtime option not only affordable, it's actually a bargain! |
