Answer 2

What about make your own pizza? I did that once and it was great! We had so much fun just assembling them.

There's also the old stand by ... Spaghetti

How about Fajitas? They're quick and easy.

Marinate you meat over night, you might want to slice it before, but it's not really necessary. About 30 minutes before you're ready to cook through in some sliced onion & pepper. I've also sliced fresh mushrooms and added them about 1 hour before. Cook in a skillet over med/med high heat until the meat is done. While it's cooking prep your other ingrediants: cheese, sour cream, tomatoes, salsa, tortillas. I usually reserve 1/4 cup of the marinade and the last minute or two throw it in to give a nice sizzle and just let it cook until I'm ready to serve it. You can also open a can of refried beans and warm them in the microwave right before you warm the tortillas. It usually takes about 30 min to cook everything. You could have a salad on the side, or chips and salsa. I usually buy the marinade and mix it with the appropriate amount of vinegar and oil.

Answer 3

My kids love this and it just something I threw together oneday.
1 box of AuGratin potatoes - make as directed on box and place in a baking pan.
1 Lb. of Ground beef cooked and drained - add to the potatoes and mix it around.
1 Small bag of frozen Broccoli - mix it in with the other and pop it in the oven. If you don't like broccoli use french style green beans, my kids like the broccoli.
The last 10 mins I place slices of cheese on top just to make it real cheesy.

If you have a crock pot you could also get a beef roast, can of mushroom soup, dry onion soup mix, and potatoes, carrots, peas etc. and throw it all together and let it go till time to eat. Usually 6 or mor hours, so all you would have to do it mix the soups add a little water, put the meat in and whatever veggies you want and let it cook all day. Real easy.

Good luck I'm sure he'll like what ever you make. :)

Answer 4

If you want to eat truly healthy, lose body fat consistently, normalize your blood pressure, cholesterol levels, prevent cancer, and even boost your brain health and energy levels, you may have heard all over the news that the Paleo Diet has been found to be one of the best methods of achieving all of these benefits compared to any other popular "fad" diets out there. Go here https://bitly.im/aMCco

The truth is that the Paleo Diet will never be considered a fad because it's just simply the way that humans evolved to eat over approximately 2 million years. And eating in a similar fashion to our ancestors has been proven time and time again to offer amazing health benefits, including prevention of most diseases of civilization such as cancer, heart disease, alzheimers, and other chronic conditions that are mostly caused by poor diet and lifestyle. One of the biggest misunderstandings about the Paleo Diet is that it's a meat-eating diet, or a super low-carb diet. This is not true

Answer 9

Chocolate covered pretzel Bites and sticks. Melt vanilla or chocolate almond bark and then dip small pretzels into it. Dip the top ends of pretzel sticks into the almond bark as well. For a great eye appeal take either chocolate, vanilla, or food colored almond bark into a small sandwich bag and cut corner. Drissle this almond bark over the top of bites and sticks. These will dry within 10 minutes so they can be packaged during the same time as made. Good luck!

Answer 10

CHICKEN MARSALA - In first frying pan, Cut boneless chicken into chunks or strips, coat with flour and cook in butter until all sides just start to brown, set aside. In second frying pan, melt butter and add fresh sliced mushrooms (lots) and cook until they just start to soften, add generous amount of Marsala wine and a couple of finely diced garlic cloves and cook for three minutes. Add chicken from first pan and cook until sauce thickens (flour from chicken will thicken sauce), Add a small spritz more Marsala wine ( to refresh Marsala wine flavor) and serve immediately.
