Are you always rushing home, hoping not to get a speeding
ticket along the way, knowing that you will have about 30
minutes to get a meal on the table and get one or two of
the family out the door? The day of a mom can be so busy
that at times she can wonder how she will ever get to the
end of the day without crashing. But if cooking a 15 minute
meal can be mastered then meal time will be just so much
easier.

Fast foods are a popular way to getting a quick meal for
the family but there are very few of them are healthy.
Most are saturated in fat and not healthy for the family.

There are many meals that can be prepared quickly but here
is an easy 15 minute meal.

Honey Soy and Garlic Fried Rice (feeds 3 adults)

1 cup uncooked rice 5 rashers of bacon chopped

1 medium onion chopped

4 cloves garlic finely sliced

1 cup corn kernels

1 cup frozen peas

½ cup chopped red pepper

1 cup chopped mushrooms

3 tablespoons olive oil

Salt and pepper to taste

Honey Soy and Garlic sauce (approx. 3 tablespoons and
adjust to taste)

Method:

Cook rice in 2 cups of water in microwave for 12 -13
minutes.

While the rice is cooking, put oil in the pan and fry
onions and bacon until onions are soft and bacon browning.
Add garlic and cook 1 minute. Add all other vegetables and
cook 2 minutes. When rice is cooked, add and stir in. Add
Honey Soy and Garlic sauce adjust taste, stir and serve.

This is a really tasty dish and very 'morish'. All ages
like it, but if very young children are going to have it
they may like it served before the sauce is added, although
many children do like the Honey Soy and Garlic sauce.

Many other 15 minute easy meals are such dishes as omelets,
eggs and bacon, open grilled sandwiches, steak sandwiches
and pizza. Omelets are always a good standby because if
just one or two family members need to leave the house in a
hurry they can be served first and be on their way.

Being organized before a busy day is half the problem
solved. If warning is given of a busy night ahead by
making sure that the ingredients are in the fridge then
getting the meal together is not such a problem. 15 minute
quick meals will help keep the family happy and mom can sit
down and put her feet up afterwards.
