A favorite easy meal.

Do you have a favorite meal that you pull out for nights you are on your own?
Most nights my husband can be home for dinner, but occasionally, for whatever reason my daughter and I eat on our own.  On those nights she and I tend to stick to a vegetarian fare, mostly because we never get to eat that kind of stuff when Daddy's around.  Our favorite is ravioli or tortellini.  We serve it differently everytime because there are a ton of combinations that you can have and still have it be wonderful.  It can be served with a tomato sauce, an alfredo, a pumpkin cream sauce, or even with crazy bits and pieces from the refrigerator, or freezer.  Last night we just had plain cheese ravioli covered with broccoli and pecans, and it was delicious.  What's your favorite "easy" meal?

Check Out Our Dinner

Here is what we ended up eating for dinner last night.

Our menu plan has been more of a guideline this week. It hasn't completely rolled off the track, we have eaten what we had at home, but not was on the plan. The above picture is what resulted :) . I count that as success! I had planned on roasting a whole chicken, but it has been so hot I didn't want to heat up the kitchen, so we grilled our tiny electric grill instead, and then put it all in a salad. If I can just make mistakes like this all the time, we should be good.
