5 Super Easy Dinner Ideas

 


Good morning everyone! Welcome back to the blog. Today I will be sharing some of my favorite super easy dinner ideas with you for the days when you have to eat but don't want to spend a lot of time in the kitchen. That being said the recipes won't be extravagant and seriously require little effort. My favorite way of cooking.


Tacos


Super easy to make. Just brown and drain some ground beef and add a taco seasoning packet from the grocery store and add some water and mix. ( I prefer the taco bell brand seasoning packet but you can use any brand) 

You will need:


One pound of ground beef


One taco seasoning packet


Water


Toppings (optional) use the ones you like


Lettuce

Tomatoes


Salsa


Sour Cream


Shredded cheese


Taco Shells 


Tacos are a tried and true easy dinner. It takes 20 minutes or less to cook.

Spaghetti


I adore spaghetti night. It takes about thirty minutes but it is definitely worth it.


Boil your spaghetti noodles in a large pot. Brown and drain one pound of ground beef in a deep skillet. Add one jar of spaghetti sauce to the ground beef ( I use the Walmart traditional spaghetti sauce) reduced heat, cover and let simmer while the noodles cook. Drain spaghetti noodles ( I add two tablespoons of butter to the noodles after I drain them. This keeps them from sticking together. Just my personal preference. Enjoy.


You will need


One pound of ground beef


One jar of spaghetti sauce


Grated parmesan cheese


One box of spaghetti noodles


Usually takes about thirty minutes to cook.


Pot Roast


I'll be honest here, when it comes to meat my cooking knowledge is pretty limited once I get out of the chicken and ground beef arena. That's why I love pot roast. It's so easy I can cook it. I will give you a tip that I always follow. Always look for boneless. The reason for this is that you are paying by the pound. I want all my money going to meat and not bones.


What you will need


Crock Pot


Pot Roast


Seasoning packet for Roast


2 carrots ( sliced)


One medium yellow onion ( sliced or chopped)


2 large potatoes ( diced)


Add everything together into a crock pot in the morning and add a little water. Cook on low for six- eight hours ( until meat is fully cooked) then enjoy.


Homemade Chili


Yep, we're back to ground beef again folks. Homemade Chili is a really good meal especially when it's rainy or cold outside. I make sweet chili because my husband is not a fan of anything hot and spicy.


What you will need


One pound of ground beef


One Chili seasoning packet


One can tomato sauce


One can chili beans


2 tablespoons of honey


¼ cup brown sugar


Brown and drain ground beef. In a large pot, add ground beef, chili packet, sauce, chili beans, brown sugar and honey. Bring to a boil and then cover and reduce heat and let simmer for about 20-30 minutes. Enjoy


Veggie plate dinner


Sometimes I just really crave a veggie plate dinner. I love how easy this dinner is because all I have to do is open a premade salad mix and heat up some canned vegetables.


You will need


Premade salad mix


Salad dressing of your choice


3 canned vegetables


Simply heat up your three favorite veggies and open a bag of salad and you're done.


Ready in ten minutes

Benefits of an Evening Meditation Routine

Let's face it, the stress of everyday life can wreak havoc on our physical, emotional, and mental health. That is why I started an evening meditation routine to help me unwind after a long day. I practice this routine every single night without fail and have seen great results. 5 Steps To Help You Relax I have five simple things I do every night to help me unwind to relax my body and mind. Step One A hot bath to soothe aching muscles. Step Two Sitting in my favorite chair with a cup of coffee and a book for thirty minutes to an hour. Step Three I pull up YouTube and do an evening ( sleep ) meditation. Step Four I take a Sound Bath .  You can find many of these on YouTube.

I have learned that if I start my day with a morning meditation routine and end it with a meditation routine my overall heal...

Behind the Scenes: A Typical Day For A Content Creator

Good morning and welcome back to the blog. Today I will give you the rundown on a typical day in my life as a blogger. One very important thing to mention is that my blogging schedule consists of working three days a week. I have been blogging for 10+ years now. When I originally started blogging I worked seven days a week, however, over the years I have narrowed the work week down to only three days and it works well for me. The most important thing I can teach you is to find a schedule and a system that works for you. Are you ready for a typical day in my life as a blogger? Here we go! Emails  My least favorite part but definitely a necessity. I always start the day going through emails, responding to PR Companies that have reached out to let them know if I'm interested in a collaboration.  Interact with Followers  I love hopping on my socials and checking in with my followers first thing in the morning. Interacting with followers is probably my favorite part of bloggin...
