Easy Sunday Dinner

We all have those days when you drag into the house and the only thing you want to do is hit the couch. Since I live alone I could always get away with the minimal dinner on these nights…chips and salsa, cereal, top ramen. These days I try to avoid the empty calories and I tend to get a lot more drop in dinner guests, so Im always looking for ways to whip up something that’s easy and more importantly QUICK!

A few weeks back I was in the store and noticed a relatively new product Philadelphia Cooking Creme. So in my latest 15 minute dinner attempt I thought I would finally try this out. I went with the Italian Cheese and Herb and made a simple chicken dish.

I cooked about 1 pound of chicken in my deep covered baker for 10 minutes. This is seriously something everyone needs in their kitchen and if you host a Pampered Chef party with me you can get it free!! Of course if you don't already own a baker then 25 minutes in the oven on 350 should do the trick.

I haven’t been grocery shopping in FOREVER so I went for a Bethenny Frankel style “use what you have” meal and chopped up any veggies I could find. This time that ended up being half a red pepper, half a green pepper and one head of broccoli. Once it started simmering I realized that wasn’t really enough so I threw in a can of corn.

Once the chicken was done I chopped it with another one of my favorite kitchen tools, the salad chopper and dumped that and the sauce right into the veggies.

After about 5 minutes of stirring my 15 minute meal was complete!!

Served over egg noodles one night and rice the next, this was a tasty and simple meal. The Philadelphia Cooking Creme was pretty good but I think next time I’ll add my own seasonings into the mix.

Try it out and enjoy!
