Fajita Rice Skillet Dinner
Fajita Rice Skillet Dinner This fajita flavored ground beef and rice skillet dinner is quick, easy and on the table in 30 minutes or less. Did I mention it’s very tasty too? My store had Rice-a-Roni on sale last week. It’s been literally ages since I bought or ate this. No particular reason, just that…
Roasted Rosemary Chicken and Vegetables
Rosemary Roast Chicken and Vegetables Wonderful and easy gourmet meal ready in 30 minutes! I got this roasted rosemary chicken and vegetables from a meal kit deal, and liked it so much, I made it without the meal kit (which I got for free). The kit came with French Baby Carrots as part of the…

Shrimp with Bok Choy
