As we enter the holidays, I feel like all of my cooking time is being eaten up by baking and holiday treats, not to mention preparing for Thanksgiving. That means that I need a lot of quick and easy meal ideas to get dinner on the table.
This past week, I tried out several ideas using Alexia potato varieties as side items to make well balanced meals for my family. These all included protein, veggies, and starch/potatoes.
We are long time fans of Alexia products, I honestly feel like I can trust them so they tend to be the product I pick up at the store the most in the freezer section. We are big fans of the sweet potato crinkle cut fries, so I pick those up most often. My daughter absolutely loves them so that tops my list as a kid pleaser.
My son loves the waffle fries, while my husband could eat the onion rings all by himself.
This past week though I made each of these recipes in less than 30 minutes and it would cover meals for the majority of the week. The first recipe I made an Egg Salad Sandwich complete with veggies and the Alexia Crinkle Cut Sweet Potato Fries. This happened to be my lunch and dinner that particular day. It’s a good thing I love egg salad!
Next up, I made my son’s favorite pizza bagels then paired it alongside carrots and the Alexia Smart Classic Crinkle Fries. He basically LOVED this meal aside from the carrots. What can I say, getting him to eat raw veggies is a whole different topic all together!
Our next item on our menu were these Chili Cheese Hot Dogs with a side of Onion Rings and celery. This is one of my husband’s absolute favorite meals. I like to use leftover chili to make this a very easy dinner time treat.
Next we decided to grill up a few hamburgers using a cast iron grill on the stove. Then, I served it with the Alexia Oven Reds and also a plate with the Smart Classic Crinkle Fries too. I have to say those Oven Reds are very good, this was the first time we have tried those.
My husband enjoyed the crinkle fries while I enjoyed the Oven Reds. Perfect!
Our last meal was a kid-friendly favorite complete with fish sticks, corn, and straight sweet potato fries. The fish sticks can either be homemade or store bought, it is totally up to you. I like to make homemade frequently and my daughter LOVES them. My son even does too so that’s a double win for mommy!
Each of these meals took less than 30 minutes to prepare and made it super simple for me to get back to baking while eating and getting the rest of my family fed!
