Cleaning House.....

OK, now its time to clean the house. Lets see how fast we can get this done before its time to grocery shopping, then pick up the kids from school.  Here is a little video with tips on how to clean quickly.

Extra-Curricular Activities............

We all know how it feels to do 100 things in a day.  So after running around from activity to activity, its now time for dinner.  "What can I make that's quick and healthy", is the question we ask ourselves.  Soooooo, I'm here to help with recipes that are healthy and Quick !!

Microwavable Ravioli with Tomatoes

2-3 ripe tomatoes, chopped
(can also substitute 15 oz. can of diced tomatoes)
2 tbsp. snipped fresh basil or 1 tbsp. dried basil

2 cloves garlic, minced

1/2 tsp. lemon pepper

3 tbsp. olive oil

1 bag microwavable cheese ravioli

1/4 cup Parmesan cheese, shredded

salt and pepper to taste

 

Combine chopped tomatoes, basil, garlic, lemon pepper, and olive oil in a large bowl. Let tomato mixture sit at room temperature for approximately thirty minutes.  Heat ravioli in the microwave according to the package instructions. I like the Rosetto All-Natural Steam ‘n Eat™ cheese stuffed ravioli that can be found in the freezer section of your local supermarket. And right now they also have a $1.50 coupon off of their products.  Finally, carefully add the hot pasta to the tomato mixture and gently toss to coat. Spoon on plates, sprinkle with shredded Parmesan cheese, and serve
