Preheat the oven to 350, pull boneless, skinless chicken breasts out of the fridge, put them in a baking pan, adorn with whatever spices call to me (usually a little oregano, basil, salt, pepper, and a generous squeeze of lemon juice) and toss them in the oven til done. Throw some rice in the rice cooker. (That's my something when I'm really lazy.) Add in a veggie or a fruit as my side dish. It's my brain dead meal. I always keep some frozen homemade spaghetti sauce in the freezer. Serve with high-fiber noodles and I can go from slacking to dinner in 30 minutes. Love it.

Ever since my gallbladder went evil earlier this year, I turned to turkey as my friend. :) It's so versatile! We are big on the ground turkey here too!

I have to admit I do short order cook for my oldest Ds as he is Type 1 diabetic...I can't just say eat if you want with him:) Funny this sounds exactly like dinner at my house…substituting the ground beef for organic ground turkey!
