Menu Ideas

Here are a few fast and easy things that the Fitch girls eat on a regular basis. Most of it is done with organic foods. The cheese we eat is also health market cheese that has probiotics in it. Other ideas to come soon...

Roasted Chicken, with potatoes and carrots:

It does take 1.5 hours to cook, but you just throw it all in a pan (cut up the potatoes and use baby carrots) with a stick of butter and season the bird. Then every 30 minutes just bast it. The prep time is so easy, that i use this meal when i am at home, but busy. (pick all the leftover meat off and FREEZE THE BONES when you are done)

With the left over meat you can make one of the next two dishes.

Chicken Casserole:

Leftover chicken (or six breasts fully cooked and diced)
1 can cream of chicken soup
1 8oz sour cream

mix these three things together. Spread crushed up Ritx crackers over the top and cook at 350 for 30 minutes. Delicious

Chicken Broccoli and Cheesy Rice:

Left over Chicken (or how ever much you want to add)

Buy and prepare a packet of cheesy broccoli rice. while that is cooking...

In a skillet, cut up and put Broccoli in, with a little bit of water in the bottom, cover it, and cook until it is bright green.

Add in the chicken and cover it again.

Within 10 minutes that rice will be done as well as the chicken and broccoli. Put it all together in a big bowl and put it on the table.

Salmon:

This is so easy to cook. You can buy 1.50 frozen wild caught salmon at HyVee. it is PINK so my daughter will eat it.

Just throw it in the skillet (a little olive oil in the bottom) and salt and cover it. Let it sit for five minutes while you...

Prepare green salad and apples. Sometimes some cheese sliced too.

Flip the fish after 5 minutes. Salt and cover.

Finish getting the table set.

Pull the fish off and you have a full meal in 15 minutes. Prep and all.

Veggie Pasta Soup:

This will take a day to prepare, but then you can freeze and pull it out later. it is a family favorite here.

To make broth: bring to a boil two saved chicken carcasses then let them simmer for 6-8 hours

Then drain the bones and you should have over a gallon over broth left (super healthy).

Add to it: One box of bow tie noodles, 1 can peas, 1 can carrots, 1 can corn and one can garbanzo beans

Serve with grapes, hard boiled eggs and cheese cubes.

it tastes just like chicken n noodles that you put over potatoes, but it is really healthy and low in calories.
