Answer 1

Place two chicken breasts, boneless/skinless, in a big ziploc ba. Add 1 cup of salsa, 1 cap full of oil and some pepper. Let it sit in your fridge a few (4) hours.

Place the chicken on the grill (or a grill pan or a skillet) and cook it on medium/med-high heat for 12 minutes. Slice the chicken when it's done into strips.

Use the chicken to make fajitas or on top of a salad. Trust me: this recipe rocks.

Go buy yourself a slow cooker. You will get a cook book. You can go on line to find recipes. If you eat meat it is tender. Pinto beans rinsed soaked Add1/2 small chopped up onion. Make sure enough water is added (use small amount of beans. Different kinds of soup are good cooked this way. You can put in food and it does cook slow(making your meal ahead) You get to come in and smell your delicious food cooking. You won't even need a woman (not for Cooking) if you get that slow cooker. I like to make drop dumplings in mine chicken or beef or kraut-different kinds of soup-casseroles. You can even make desserts. You will fall in love with your slow cooker. You don't have to worry about anything burning. Vegetable soup or casseroles are healthy. Eat some fruit to. 100% whole wheat bread. Corn bread. slice of bread cheese and pepperoni for small pizza. Oyster soup-I buy the canned ones (cheaper and just as good) Let them come to a slow boil add a little water. then after boiling for a few minutes add milk and butter or marg(i use butter) Good with crackers. You can open up a can of Salmon and make it much the same way. I leave in the bones(They are soft-mash them up) but take off the skin and also be sure to add the juice in can. Hope it helps a little. This is good and fast and nourishing.

Answer 3

Buy frozen tv dinners to see what you like, then learn how to prep the food yourself. I like S.o.S., which is white sauce with sliced beef on toast. The white sauce comes premade, the beef comes in glass jars which can be used as water glasses and the bread can be toasted in any number of ways. Then there is rice mixed with almost any soup, a great filler-upper. Cooking is fun and easy now that we have pre prepped food. Even just a plain potato cooked in water until soft with butter and sour cream is delicious.

Answer 7

All fruits are fruit and vegetables. A "vegetable" is a plant, any part of which can be used for food.

Answer 8

In the superstore, fruits are usually chosen far too soon. Some are rocks, many are wrong. Some of the fresh vegetables are generally right (zucchini, onions, garlic, lettuce, greens, and a few others) so I'd have to go with vegetables.
