Here's a big gift to working moms everywhere (and remember, we're ALL working moms!) - the NY Times just posted an article by Mark Bittman called 101 Simple Meals Ready in 10 Minutes or Less.
Really? Talk about a man after my own heart. As you know, I am NOT a cook and I have very little time on my hands. Cooking is not my thing. In fact, it usually ends in lots of bad words and a big mess. But, there may be something to this.
Here's the best part: "These suggestions are not formal recipes; rather, they provide a general outline. With a little imagination and some swift moves — and maybe a salad and a loaf of bread — you can turn any dish on this list into a meal that not only will be better than takeout, but won’t heat you out of the house."
This is EXACTLY what I need. Easy main dishes that I can cook in a jiffy. My only worry is that the kids won't eat what's on the list. I have very picky kids. I don't want to set myself up to where they are eating dino chicken all the time still again. A Lot of the stuff on the list are foriegn to me (as usual) but that doesn't mean I can't try? What's the worst that can happen - takeout? Been there, done that.
Do you have any 10 minute meals you can share?
