I was going to let the kids and hubby fend for themselves for supper tonight. Then came the sounds of cupboards doors opening and closing, back and forth walking, refrigerator staring… No, things are not going to magically appear in the fridge if they weren’t there 10 seconds ago. Or the 10 seconds before that. Or….
At 7:00, I gave up and started digging through the freezer.
Something quick. Easy. Minimal effort. A pizza shell. A jar of Alfredo sauce, some organic chicken breasts and some veggies.
This chicken alfredo pizza with colorful vegetables sure won’t win any awards but it tastes good. Even the dog got a piece when I dropped my first slice on the floor. Ah well.
