Have a steaming bowl of wholesome, semi-homemade Chicken & Rice Soup on your table in under 30 minutes!
You want to know one of the things I dislike most about cooking? I loathe having to chop vegetables. It’s so time consuming, messy & and just a pain to sit there and do. I dislike it so much, I don’t even own an actual cutting board. {GASP!} If I know I’m going to have to chop things up that week for meals, I buy those cutting sheets at the dollar store & then just toss them after a few uses.
I am a frozen, pre-chopped veggie girl all the way! Which is why I have fallen madly in love with Birds Eye new line of Recipe Ready products. These things are awesome! And they make it so easy to get a wholesome, flavorful, fresh & yummy meal on the table in less than 30 minutes!
So what exactly is Recipe Ready? It’s Birds Eye new line of delicious pre-cut vegetables that are ready to be thrown into stir-fries, fajitas, tacos, pastas, hamburgers & so much more!
Take this Quick & Easy Chicken & Rice Soup for instance. In less than 30 minutes, we had a large pot of homemade, wholesome soup. Way better than the canned version. It’s packed full of delicious vegetables, all in a perfect bite size form. And I didn’t have to chop a thing! The most time consuming part of this recipe was shredding the chicken!
