Seasoning is: 2T Fajita seasoning (I make my own blend), 3T Olive Oil, 1 T fresh orange juice (we just use store bought not from concentrate because Eric has a glass every morning). Mix that with your meat and marinate while the veggies are cooking and you do your other prep. Then the whole works goes in the skillet along with the veggies. We always use our cast iron for fajitas. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-for-dinner-tonight-or-help-me-figure-that-out#post-1172153 Thu, 24 Oct 2013 14:32:15 +0000 Ash 1172153@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have bbq pork chops in the crock pot.

I had forgotten enchilada sauce so I improvised with cream of mushroom soup and rotel diced tomatoes to spice it up. It came out perfectly. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-for-dinner-tonight-or-help-me-figure-that-out#post-1171947 Thu, 24 Oct 2013 13:50:31 +0000 DigAPony 1171947@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm making meatloaf, baked potatoes, and green beans. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-for-dinner-tonight-or-help-me-figure-that-out#post-1171931 Thu, 24 Oct 2013 13:45:54 +0000 mediagirl 1171931@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@yoursilverlining: thankfully none of us are picky! :) I like the idea of a stir-fry.

My parents are in town tonight. The meal has to be toddler friendly and prepped and cooked in 30-40 minutes.</p> <p>Any good suggestions? I have to stop at the store b/c the only protein we have in the house is frozen chicken breasts and I don't want to spend the time to defrost.</p> <p>What are you having? </p>
