Dinner in a hurry

I have a new dilemma in the cooking department.

I had to figure out, last night, a bunch of dinners that were easy to prepare, transportable, and yummy, so we can take them along with us to Will's football practices.

Okay... here's why...

I'm cheap.

I just can't see spending the money eating out every night,

even though it would be much more convenient. Since I am really watching what I eat,

I also really don't want to

eat food that I didn't prepare myself. I would much rather drop that money at

a department store than a restaurant or fast food joint. Catch my drift?

SO!!!

I came up with a few things that I think will fill us up, be tasty and still not break the calorie barrier I set for myself.

***

Egg White Burritos, brown rice and salad

Lavash Wraps, watermelon slices

30 minute Chicken, Couscous, salad

Goat Cheese and Baguette and cucumber salad

Chicken Taco Salad, fruit kebobs, tea

Tuna Sandwiches, veggies and dip, melon

Cheeseburger Salad, oven potatoes, melon

Sweet N Sour Pasta Salad, homemade bread, fruit

***

We love melons, can you tell?

Each meal will be serve with their choice of either unsweetened green iced tea or water.

***

I own a TON of the storage containers called Lock N Lock, and let me tell you...

THEY ARE THE BEST ON THE PLANET!

You can throw a full container on the floor and it won't open for anything!

So I will be using only those to put our food into.

Gonna try and save some trees while I'm at it.

So... if you are ever in Redlands from 3-7 p.m. and are hungry, give me a jingle and come eat dinner with us! I'll always have plenty!
