Quick stew and biscuits--pantry-styleToday my dear husband and I were out at the OB doc's--with a little glucose test and some blood-letting, so there wasn't much time for dinner plans--I'm sure you've been there!Enter--the Pantry Principle! Like Old Mother Hubbard, I looked in my cupboard, and there before me were some cans of stew, potatoes and carrots, and in my fridge a stock of canned biscuits. I simply open the stew (3 huge cans for us), pop it in the pan, open and drain the potatoes (2 cans) and carrots (these stretch the stew, and my family likes extra potatoes) and warm them all up, stirring occasionally, while baking the biscuits in the oven (4 cans for us). Before you could say "get her poor dog a bone", my children were singing yummy songs--I even had time to watch them all scooter and ride bikes outside because it was such an easy dinner. Desert--fresh fruit, of course--gotta keep those fruits and veggies always in the picture! Leave a Comment { Last Page } { Page 47 of 84 } { Next Page } |
