Here is a simple dinner loaded with nutrition. For two adults use two chicken breasts and two sweet potatoes.
Hardware: High walled cast iron pan with a lid. Visions sauce pan with a lid. Microwave oven, shallow cast iron pan, and an 8 inch cast iron pan.
Stuff to make it with: Boneless skinless chicken breast. Butter flavor nonstick cooking spray or EVOO. Sea Salt Grinder, Black Pepper Grinder, Peppercorn Medley Grinder, Steak Seasoning Grinder. Raw Green Beans. One small Sweet Potato. I Can't Believe It's Not Butter Spray. Martha White Sweet Yellow Cornbread and Muffin Mix, One Egg, 1/2 Cup Milk, a little white vinegar, and natural honey.
Put a small amount of water in the shallow cast iron pan. Boil the green beans in it at high temperature to purify them. Take them out and put them in the Visions pan and boil them with the lid on until they are cooked and snappy.
Take one Chicken Breast and salt it with the sea salt and pepper it real good. Set the high walled pan on medium high and spray the cooking oil in it or a little EVOO. As one side is browned put a little EVOO on it and then turn it and put a little on the other side after it is browned. Sprinkle with Lemon Juice after it is cooked. The reason I left this out is the cost.
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Farenheit. Grease an 8 inch cast iron pan and put it in the oven for 7 minutes. Pour the cornbread mix as instructed in the pan after it is heated and cook for 17 minutes or more depending on your altitude.
The Sweet Potato will take 4 minutes in a 1100 watt Microwave oven if it is small. Larger potatoes dont taste as good as the small or skinny ones do.
The chicken takes maybe 30 minutes of medium heat after browning with the lid on the pot. Turn it every now and then and divide it if you want it to cook faster.
The green beans will be done when they get done. Just take one out and put a little white vinegar and a little salt and pepper on it and see if it is good. You can use a slow cook and cooked bacon, but bacon is high in price and cholesterol.
You may steam the green beans as opposed to any slow cook. There are microwave steamers, but I have not had good luck with steaming anything in a microwave.
The I Can't Believe It Is Not Butter spray is mostly for the Sweet Potato, the corn bread and the Green Beans after they are done. The honey is for the corn bread and the buttered sweet potato.
See my Honey Ice Tea recipe for the drink. This should fill up two grown adults for about 10 bucks, and it is very good for you. Use part of a real Lemon in you tea glass, not in the whole pitcher.
The object is to eat well and easily cook it and not spend any more money than you have to, just make sure you cook your food until it is done. You could drink a little wine with it, but I am a Country Boy and know nothing of wine.
