Mm..chicken and rice...two of my favorite things. And, my kids too!
Chicken Rice Skillet
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 1/4 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch pieces
2 cups water
1 tablespoon margarine or butter
1 bag (1 pound) frozen broccoli, red peppers, onions and mushrooms, thawed
2 cups uncooked instant rice
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese (4 ounces)
1. In 12-inch skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Cook chicken in oil 3 to 4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until no longer pink in center.
2. Add water and margarine; heat to boiling. Stir in vegetables, rice, salt and pepper. Sprinkle with cheese; remove from heat. Cover and let stand about 5 minutes or until water is absorbed.

Easy Dinner #2!
I haven't really given a name to this recipe, but I whipped it up and its really yummy!
1 box rigatoni/ziti noodles
1 lb. ground beef
1 can of spaghetti sauce
2 cups of shredded mozzerella
2 cups small curd cottage cheese
Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Cook noodles according to package. Drain. Return noodles to pot they were cooked in. While noodles are cooking, brown the ground beef until fully cooked; drain fat. Spray a 9" x 13" or similar size baking dish with non-stick cooking spray.
Combine in the pot the noodles, ground beef, spaghetti sauce, cottage cheese and 1 1/2 cups of mozzerella. Stir together and pour into baking dish. Cover with the 1/2 cup of mozzerella cheese. Cover with foil, and bake for 20 minutes. Remove foil and bake another 5-10 minutes, until cheese is melted.
It's pretty darn GOOD!

Easy Dinner Week!
This week is dedicated to:
Quick and Easy Dinners!
I'm going to share some of my favorite recipes for easy, delicious dinners. Yum!
Jennie's (that's me!) Famous Beef Enchiladas
1 lb ground beef
1/2 small onion, chopped finely
1 can Campbell's Fiesta Nacho Cheese Soup (if you don't like spicy, the Cheddar Cheese soup works just as well for this! If you choose to do this, season ground beef after cooking with taco seasoning.)
1 package of Soft Taco sized tortillas
1 can of enchilada sauce (or the dry packaged-add water- type works too!)
2 cups of shredded cheddar cheese (more or less to taste!)
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
Brown ground beef and onions until done; drain. After putting meat back into the pan, add the Nacho Cheese soup. (If using Cheddar Cheese Soup, mix in taco seasoning now, and then add the soup.) Add 1/2 cup of cheddar cheese; mix well, and let cook for 5 minutes. While this is cooking, warm up/make the enchilada sauce.
Spray a 9" x 13" baking pan with non-stick cooking spray. With an open tortilla, spoon some meat mixture into tortilla; roll up and put in pan, seam side down. Continue until out of tortillas or meat mixuture. Cover enchiladas with enchilada sauce; put the rest of the cheese on top of sauce.
Bake for 15-20 minutes in oven, or until cheese is well melted and ends of enchiladas are brown.
Serve with sour cream, guacamole, fresh chopped tomatoes, lettuce, etc.
I have also made these with refried beans inside with the meat, that way I don't have to add as much meat and it makes the meal go further.
Either way...its SO GOOD!
