Clockwatchers: 20-Minute Three-Course Meal Plan
Monday, January 30, 2012
I’ve been out of town all weekend, and I just can’t wait to get back to my kitchen. Don’t get me wrong: I love going out to eat. Still, there’s something so nice about the ritual of making dinner for my family…even on crazy days like today.
It’ll be a whirlwind driving home from the airport and getting up to speed on what I’ve missed the last few days. But what day isn’t, right? So my plan: Whip up one of my standby 20-Minute Three-Course Meal Plans (okay, I just made that name up, but the sentiment is a standby). With a little can-do attitude, there’s no reason we can’t make a full meal that’s nutritious, tasty, and easy to boot.
Here’s what I’m thinking for the lineup:
- Hot Mama Quesadilla: 10 minutes
This is one of the Aldrich all-time favorites. Cheesy without being overkill, spicy without causing any tears, and healthy enough to make me feel like I’m giving my family what they need. You’ll just need can of organic black beans, chopped sweet potato (precut and steamed), precut chicken breast, cilantro, cheddar cheese, and tortillas. A surefire crowd pleaser.
