Feta Herb DressingLooking to avoid take-out and delivery for dinner? Reinvent fast casual dining with homemade savings. Here are few of our favorite super fast suppers that you can make at home:
If you have ABOUT 25 minutes
Go fish. While 365 Everyday Value® Lightly Breaded Fish Fillet or Bites bake, cook greens and whole wheat couscous.
Mediterranean medley. Grill slices of eggplant, zucchini and portobello mushrooms, and a split loaf of ciabatta. Spread lemon-garlic mayo on the bread. Then assemble the sandwich and top with feta cheese crumbles and arugula.
No tropical troubles. Make Pineapple Teriyaki Beef opens in a new tab. Serve with 365 Everyday Value® Organic Rice. (Find it in the freezer aisle. It’s ready in mere minutes!)
If you have ABOUT 15 minutes
Pasta party. Toss whole wheat pasta with minced garlic and olive oil. Garnish with mozzarella or chopped precooked sausage like Wellshire Smoked Polska Kielbasa.
French fave. For a Niçoise salad, arrange lightly steamed haricot verts (green beans), chickpeas, canned tuna, hard-boiled eggs, sliced cucumber and tomato on a bed of greens. Dress with a lemon-Dijon vinaigrette.
Rice, rice baby. Heat 365 Everyday Value® Organic Brown Rice then top with quick stir-fried chicken or tofu and veggies.
If you have ABOUT 5 minutes
Grilled cheese please. Make a melty mozzarella sandwich with greens and sliced tomatoes. Serve it with very thin slices of zucchini drizzled with olive oil.
Souper supper. Broth + leftover ingredients (like rotisserie chicken, steamed broccoli and rice) = soup! Add chopped fresh parsley or a squeeze of lemon.
Bean town. Make a bean salad with canned beans, cut veggies from the salad bar and Feta-Herb Dressing opens in a new tab.
