This is one of my favorite fast meals! We love the Orange Chicken from Costco.
I doctored it up by adding some chunks of red bell pepper when I stirred in the sauce. Yum!!
And I just realized that chicken is the only meat DH has eaten all week. :rolleyes: Of course, he's out at the movies with coworkers, and I'm here closing shows that won't close until next week now. :grumpy: But at least it gives me a head start on August commissions.

I usually do some veggies in with it too - it's just so easy. It's a Show Night meal for us - and then I even sometimes use the Minute Brown Rice, or the already cooked brown rice that you just have to nuke....and stirfry some veggies to go with it.

Micah doesn't like the sauce - so I save out about 5 pieces of chicken, and some veggies, for him, and then lightly coat the chicken & veggies with the sauce and serve the rest on the side. Then DH can put lots on his rice too.
 
DH made my favorite comfort meal- shake-n-bake chicken thighs with cheesy-broccoli rice-a-roni and veggies on the side- this is really the only meal I or he makes from a box (except macaroni and cheese when I'm too lazy to make the good stuff)
 
I made mini corn dogs--cut up hot dogs, put in Mini muffin pan, mix up corn muffin mix and scoop on top. Super easy and the kids liked it. We needed a quick dinner tonight.
 
Chicken Satay Pasta Salad....

I love this recipe!!!!
 
My DD, SIL, I, and sweet grandson went to Tres Hermanos, a great inexpensive restaurant here in town. They have a special for 2 that is enchiladas, tacos, and a burrito with huge nachos with the white cheese sauce (name escapes me at the moment). We also got sopapillas with vanilla ice cream. The total was $12.50 for that! My grandson loves the "chips" and cheese sauce. He was also eating the cheese from the tacos. He also ate the "ice cream"!:balloon: He watches Dora the Explorer so he hears the Spanish words all the time. I told him to tell the waitress, "Buenos Dias" and she said he was adorable when he said it so well. She brought our food and he said, "thank you" and I told him to say "Gracias" and he did. She said he was too cute! He is almost 23 months old! I posted his pictures in my album...not that I am proud of that darling boy or anything!:love:
