Tips For Making Easy, Delicious Meals

Posted: 12/13/2010

Marvelous meals in minutes can be easy to achieve.

(NAPSI) - When it comes to making dinner, you are always looking for quick ideas to serve a great-tasting meal. With your busy schedule, cooking an exciting meal doesn’t need to involve a lot of preparation and planning. Putting a few twists on your meals by adding exciting flavors is easy, even on a busy weeknight.

• Add precut vegetables from the produce aisle to chicken or beef for a quick, delicious stir-fry. Cutting meat, poultry or vegetables into smaller or thinner pieces also cuts down on cooking time.

• One-dish dinners are real time-savers, plus cleanup is a snap. Try cooking beef, potatoes and carrots in the same roasting pan and enjoy the infused flavors.

• Replicate your family’s favorite restaurant meals at home by using packets of specially blended seasoning mixes, which allow you to create a complete meal quickly in one skillet or casserole dish.

Lawry’s has four new seasoning mixes that easily turn ordinary chicken, beef or pasta into a delicious meal the entire family will love.

• Asian Style Beef & Broccoli-This easy-to-prepare stir-fry meal will remind your family of its favorite Asian restaurant. The dish combines beef, broccoli and seasonings with a hint of garlic. Serve it over rice and you have a complete, satisfying meal.

• Chimichurri Burrito Casserole-Lawry’s gives the familiar burrito casserole a new twist with this traditional Latin American sauce. With a few simple fresh ingredients, mealtime just got a lot more exciting.

• Mediterranean Sundried Tomato & Garlic Chicken-Add a taste of the Mediterranean to your family’s casserole. This easy-to-bake casserole combines chicken, pasta, tomatoes and feta cheese to easily make an appetizing meal any night of the week.

• Tuscan Style Chicken Marsala with Garlic and Basil-Chicken Marsala is a restaurant favorite, but it might not make the menu at home. This effortless version comes together on your stovetop with just a few fresh ingredients. Flavorful garlic and basil give this meal its own Tuscan flair, perfect for serving over pasta or rice.
