Fast and Easy

As we are back in tech together this week, Kurtis and I have been using some of our fast and easy recipe. There's one for those who have a wee bit more time, and one for the college kids to pre-prep and warm up in the microwave later - can you guess which one belongs to who?

The Healthier Frozen Burrito ---
* Buy 10 Taco Shells, 1 can of refried beans,  1 package of shredded cheese, freezer quart bags.
* Take ingredients home, open can of beans, package of cheese and shells.
* Put together: spread beans out over 2/3 of shell, layer some cheese, fold both ends and roll
* Put burrito in freezer bag and put in freezer for later. (Should be able to put two burritos in 1 bag.
* When ready to use, pull out bag at top of day, carry around as it defrosts and keeps things cool like an ice pack until lunch/dinner, then heat for 45sec and enjoy!
* Note: for fancier burrito, you may add taco meat, etc...
* Cost of Meal: 50-75cents/burrito

Simple Beef Stroganoff ---                                                                                                                  
* Buy 1 can mushroom soup, 1 thing of sour cream, 1 package of wide egg noodles, 1/2-1 pound beef
** Start water boiling for noodles.
* Put beef in skillet to brown.
**  Add noodles to boiling water - cook for 10 minutes.
* Once brown add entire can of mushroom soup plus 1/2 can water.
* Stir around beef/soup and let simmer.
* After about 5 minutes, add a tall spoonful or two of sour cream to beef mixture. Season with salt/pepper and allow to simmer for another 5 minutes.
** Remove noodles and drain.
* Serve together, noodles/sauce with extra sour cream for topping on the side.
* Total Prep Time: approx. 20min
* Cost of Meal: approx $10 for 4-6 servings or approx. $2/person

Hope you all enjoy!
Love,
Mary and Kurtis
