I can cook dinner for my family in 20-30 minutes, but it takes me twice that long to prep all my ingredients. Please help - I don't have time to spend my evening chopping vegetables!

YOU CAN BUY COOKED & READY TO HEAT CHICKEN STRIPS FOR USE IN STIRFRY'S & TACO'S...ETC...ALSO I BUY VALUE SIZE FROZEN MIXED VEGGIE'S & PRE-PACKAGED SALAD MIX...& PRE-COOKED BACON..SAM'S CLUB HAS GREAT PRICES ON ALL THESE ITEM'S..ALSO I BUY TWIN PACKS OF MEXICAN SHREDDED CHEESE....YOU CAN ALSO BUY FRESH VEGGIES AND SEPARATE INTO SMALL ZIPPER BAGS TO ADD TO YOUR RECIPES & HAVE FOR SNACKS AFTER WORK & SCHOOL.FROZEN FRUIT IS GOOD TO HAVE ON HAND...JUST POUR SOME INTO BOWL COVER AND LET THAW OVERNIGHT THEN USE FOR A HEALTHY & QUICK DESSERT,AND ADD A SPOONFUL OF COOLWHIP...HOPE THIS IS SOME USE TO YOU...HAPPY 4TH...PEACEROSE
