There are times when even the best of us just don’t have time to put together a gourmet meal, but we don’t want to feed the family fast food (again!). So, here are 25 Delicious Meals You Can Make in 5 Minutes–that you really can have on the table in 5 minutes! Provided, of course, that you have everything in the pantry…otherwise, you’ll need to hit the store on the way home from work…LOL! But, if you have evening activities (like sports stuff), recitals, or whatever, these 5-Minute Meals are a life saver. You can still have dinner with the whole family–regardless of just how busy everybody might be.
I have to tell you that my family’s favorite is the Frito Chili Pie, with the Loaded Bacon-Wrapped Hot Dogs running a close second. But my daughter swears by the Teriyaki Tuna…so, I guess to each his own, right? Regardless of the kind of food you like–there’s something for everyone on this list. Something for everyone who’s in a hurry! LOL!
