Ain’t Nobody Here But Us Chickens
Like most parents I know, when my spouse is away I don’t make very complicated dinners. Some parents will grab something from the drive-through to make life easy. But driving to get takeout is more trouble than it’s worth to me.
Since Joe wasn’t going to be home for dinner last night, I made grilled chicken and cheese quesadillas with a side of broccoli. First I tossed chicken strips into a spicy salt blend from Penzey’s, and sauteed it in a fry pan. I grated a piece of colby jack cheese, topped a tortilla with the cheese and chicken, covered with another tortilla and grilled it. I served the quesadilla triangles with salsa and sour cream. Microwave-steamed broccoli with olive oil and salt was our vegetable.
What are your “go to” dinners when you’re looking for an easy home cooked meal?

Got something to say?
Depends what I have around but there is usually a box of pasta and a jar of sauce.
I know I wasn’t there, but they sound much better than the “dang case-a-dillas” that Napoleon’s grandma suggested he eat!
