What are some quick easy dinner recipes?

My life has always been fast-paced and I've lived the unhealthy TV dinner/fast food type of lifestyle for a while now. Recently, life has slowed down a bit and I'm looking for some easy 20 minutes or less dinner recipes. I'm not much of a cook, but I can handle the basics. Any ideas?What are some quick easy dinner recipes?
Its really hard sometimes 2 have a fast paced life because u are so easily tempted 2 get the easy option ie. McDonalds





Try 2 min stake with a really fresh salad or just boil some gnocci and make a really easy butter and sage sauce.





This website i highly reccomend as its saved me from some near disasters!!! Its Australian though so u may need to change the conversions.





In the search bar just type ';easy'; or ';cheats'; and all recipes with those in the title will pop up





Good Luck!!!

Steak Sandwich with Garlic Toast - Just use the little minute steaks they sell in the meat dept. and fry it up in a pan with a can of sliced mushrooms (drained) and a little butter. You can toast some frozen garlic bread in a little toaster oven or make your own by buttering one side of a thick slice of sour dough bread and sprinkling it with garlic salt. Serve it up with a green garden salad.

I would suggest making some easy chili recipes. I always double the recipe then freeze the leftovers in the correct portion size. Then I have 2 - 3 dinners or more in the freezer for a future meal.





Chili is also very healthy.





This site has a section of some very easy and quick chili recipes. It might take a bit longer than 20 minutes to cook but if you freeze leftovers it pays off in the end.
