Some nights I don't have much time to toss dinner together, and this is a recipe that comes together in less than 20 minutes. It was a big hit with the boys.
Ingredients:
2 tbsp. butter
1 small onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, chopped
3 cups egg noodles
1 15 oz. can black beans, rinsed and drained
8 oz. Mexican style Velveeta
1 14 oz. can diced tomatoes with jalapenos, drained
6 oz. grilled chicken breast strips
Saute onion and garlic in butter in a large skillet. Meanwhile, cook egg noodles according to instructions and drain. Once onion and garlic are softened, add Velveeta. Cook on low heat until melted, stir in black beans, tomatoes, and chicken strips. Heat through. Add noodles and toss to coat. Enjoy!

Eggs or pancakes
i don't really do recipes. my 'go to' is usually something made out of a rotisserie chicken that i bought at the store. :)
This sounds so yummy!
It looks wonderful!!! My go-to really fast recipes are SO boring! Grilled cheese fancied up, scrambled eggs, spanish rice, omelets with different fillings, rice dishes.
This looks both delicious and quick; guess what I'll be trying!
I dont cook, so my go to is peanut butter and banana sandwiches. Your recipe and picture looks go tho!
I usually make a grilled cheese and add tomato and jalapeño with some sort of soup! My husband loves anything southwestern. Bet he'd like this.
Oh that sounds good Lisa. Lately it has been canned soup:( not the best but ready:) Hug B
looks really yummy. will have to try...
We never really need to rush, being retired!!! Hubby is intolerant to eggs, dairy, yeast. I've given up on many recipes, too!
My go to is some type of pasta dish
Thank you! This looks amazing and relatively simple.
That sounds like a perfect meal to us!

Mmmm, this sounds so good! Thanks for sharing! <3 - www.domesticgeekgirl.com
Looks yummy - I think I'd probably like that!
ja dat gaat er wel in.
The pasta looks nice :)
Seems like something Livie would LOVE, because it has cheese, LOL.
Our quick go-to is usually homemade pizzas, which we ate last night. We usually use one of those pre-made pizza crusts (or occasionally the raw dough that comes in a "biscuit can" if we have a bit more time), get some sauce, cheese, and whatever toppings, and in just about 12 minutes (including prep and baking time) we've got dinner.
Looks so simple but yummy! I want to try it
That sounds delish! Thanks for sharing!
While I would love that, Honey doesn't care for anything Mexican-ish. He's such a dud sometime...LOL!...:)JP
this recipe certainly comes in handy.
That looks amazingly delicious! I'll have to try it sometime.
it's always a bonus when it is kid approved!
I like that you put Jalepeno Peppers in the recipe! Nice touch!
A Safeway grocery Apple Walnut Salad with roasted chicken from Costco. Not very creative, I know, but good for you! :)
This does sound good. I make fried chicken. For some reason that goes fast for me.
