So Easy....

A Three year old can do it!


Yep, Cori cooked dinner last night! 


Last week I attended a Tupperware part at my cousin's house. I promised myself when I left the house that I would not purchase anything, and I would not agree to host a party. I stuck to my guns. I did both. This stuff was amazing. Have you heard of cooking in the microwave? I'm hooked. They sell a set called the TupperWave Stack Cooker. (don't look at the price and think i'm crazy. I usually NEVER spend that much on something like this but if I use it a lot, like I plan to, it will be worth the money) You can cook a full meal in the MICROWAVE in just minutes!! The rep for Tubberware demonstrated and fed us as part of her tactic to sell the crap tupperware. What a good idea she had. Last night my box came in and I prepared dinner for James, Cori & Myself. Everyone loved it. Cori especially loved "cooking" dinner for us!!  (excuse the pics, they are straight off my phone)




BOTTOM LAYER:
1 cup rice
1 cup water (I used 1.5cups of chicken broth for flavor)

1. Pour in Rice

 2. Pour in Broth



MIDDLE LAYER:
2 Raw & Diced Chicken Breasts
1 Package Hidden Valley Ranch Dressing Mix

3. Put diced chicken and ranch mix in a microwave cereal bowl shake it up so the dry mix is distributed evenly on the chicken.

4. "Plop" the seasoned chicken on the 2nd level. 

Spread it out in a donut shape around the edges 



TOP LAYER:
Fresh or frozen veggie of your choice. 
1 tsp water

5. I used fresh broccoli with 1 tsp water.


YOU'RE DONE - PUT IN THE MICROWAVE, UNCOVERED FOR 25 MINUTES. 



After 25 minutes in the mircowave, mix the top and middle layer into the bottom serving bowl and serve. I totally forgot to get a pic, dangit! It was so good and believe it or not the chicken was cooked all the way through and it was SO moist and the flavor was so good. I am so far from being a good cook but this was so easy. My husband is the master in our kitchen and he even liked it! I'm a believer and have been surfing the net for more stacker recipes. It took me 10 minutes to prepare dinner. (it could have been shorter if Cori wasn't trying to convince me that she could use the big knife and dice the chicken herself. 

Unfortunatly, Tupperware is not paying me to say these great things about them...but they should (insert smiley face) I also stuck to my guns ordered a set of microwave cereal bowls and cereal containers for the pantry. I love them all. 

DID I FORGET TO MENTION THAT YOU CAN COOK A CAKE IN MICROWAVE IN ONLY 9 MINUTES???????? THAT WILL BE MY NEXT POST!
