I saw these recipes on and episode of Racheal Ray 30 Minute Meals. It was called Chop it down to size. I could not beleive how easy this was.

We just came back from a few days with my sister in Kileen. It was a very long day. We drove back and had a flat tire on the way back and had to sit on the side of the road for quite awhile. We are all very very tired but still had to make dinner. It was so simple, really did just take 30 minutes. I used pork chops instead of chicken and they had so much flavor.

I thought the potatoes would be good but both Stephen and I really loved them. And he is not really into broccoli. Ashlyn helped with dinner and she thought it was GREAT! (well not the potatoes)
