Fast & Easy

but unlike The Military Wife, these family friendly meals can be ready in 20 minutes or less

•Pizza Toast: Toast slices of bread. Pour tomato soup over toast and place slices of weiners or sandwich meat on top. Sprinkle with mozzarella or parmesan cheese, if desired.

•It’s a Wrap: Tear up pieces of leftover KFC or weiners and place on wraps. Add frozen vegetable of choice. (we like the mixed ones for variety) Heat in microwave for 1/5 minutes per wrap. Add ranch or your choice of salad dressing, and fold like a swaddling blanket. (One side over, bottom over, and other side over).

•Sticklers: ANYTHING on a stick will make a kid happy. Microwaved pizza getting old? Put it on a stick. The same goes for wieners, sandwiches, chicken nuggets and just about any food you can shove on there. Dollarama has inexpensive shish kebab skewers, and while you’re there, grab a pair of those adorable pink “domestic goddess” rubber gloves.

You deserve it!

Mmm, unidentifiable food on a stick
