I made this One Pot Pasta again last week. I made a couple of changes this time. I used canned tomatoes, instead of fresh. And I added some cooked hamburger I had in the freezer.
This dish tastes great, and is very easy to make.
I was out of canned diced tomatoes, so I used whole tomatoes and cut them up. I dumped all the tomatoes in the pan, and used my kitchen scissors to cut them up.
Quick & easy! And no cutting board to wash! lol
I also made Easy Chicken Curry last week. This has become a family favorite. It also only uses one pan and is easy to make.
I serve it over rice, but I have eaten it the next day for lunch without rice. It’s good that way, too.
I cooked up a couple of chicken breasts in coconut oil on Saturday to put in the freezer. The coconut oil adds a great flavor. If you let the chicken brown, it will get a little crispy on the outside, without any flour or batter. I love this on salads, or to make a quick chicken salad sandwich. Just defrost & eat! I love having my own homemade convenience foods!
I also sliced two chicken breasts and sauteed them in the coconut oil for supper that night. I served them with alfredo noodles, and peas & carrots. I did have some slices left to put in the freezer for another meal, too. 🙂  This was my plate, and I did have more chicken on it. I remembered after I started eating to take a picture! lol
Yes, those are noodles from a package! I bought a few of these to have on had for when my daughter’s teeth hurt after brace adjustments. They are easy for her to make whenever she wants one. Turns out, the family loves them. So I serve them once a month or so to keep them happy. It’s easy for me, too! lol I need to come up with a one pot alfredo noodle recipe!
I talked before about how I went from cooking for seven to cooking for 5. (One son moved out, another buys his own food & cooks for himself) My daughter left on a mission trip two weeks ago, so I have been down to cooking for 4. I don’t know how to cook for 4 people! lol This morning I dropped my youngest off at camp, then next week he goes to another camp. So I’m down to cooking for 3 people for the next couple of weeks. I have no idea how I am going to just cook for thee people! lol
