5 Quick and Easy Simple Ingredient Meals

After a long day of work or school, the last thing most people would like to do is cook a time-consuming meal. Ordering in may cross your mind, however the total cost of takeout, especially to feed a family, is often a deterrent. So what do you make?

Here are 5 quick and easy simple ingredient dinners to help you eat well after a busy  day!

Power Bowls

Power bowls are a classic among families and can be customized to suit a variety of preferences by omitting, adding and swapping out ingredients. Packed with whole ingredients, power bowls are a great way to sneak healthy vegetables and protein into your family’s daily diet.

Our BLT Power Bowl is a great option, and includes rice, bacon, lettuce, tomato, eggs, black beans, avocados, shredded cheese, mayonnaise and a variety of seasonings.

To make prep faster, use leftover rice from the night before. Avocados can be pre-diced ahead of time and stored in the freezer to extend their shelf-life and speed up your prep time.

Fried Rice

Fried rice dishes are packed with flavour and are great for using up leftovers like cooked rice, chicken, vegetables, and more! 

Our Veggie & Egg Fried Rice is the perfect recipe to get you started. The recipe calls for eggs, carrots, red peppers, snow peas, rice and onions, although the ingredients can be swapped to use up what you have on hand. Want to add an extra protein boost? Add in leftover chicken!

Fried rice is a great way to add frozen vegetables to your diet, which are just as nutritious as fresh vegetables and more cost effective.

Quiches

Although quiche sounds fancy, they are incredibly easy to make and can be prepared ahead of time. You can add whatever toppings you like to your egg mixture, but quiche is another great way to use up leftover protein and vegetables. Try our Basic Quiche recipe.
