I don’t know of any family that doesn’t have a crazy hectic schedule. Between working, family responsibilities and after school activities with the kids, we barely have any time leftover to cook a nice meal. Finding time to spend with our spouse of significant other is even harder to achieve. Here is a suggestion. How about finding an easy one skillet meal where you only need to supply a protein and some veggies and make a date to cook dinner with your significant other? Put on some upbeat music, maybe pour a glass of wine and cook together.
Knorr One Skillet Meals can help you get a tasty meal on the table quickly. Knorr has a range of delicious meal starters featuring grains like barley, farro, quinoa & whole couscous. Just add Chicken, Beef or even Shrimp and fresh vegetables to create a satisfying main dish that is full of flavor. Perfectly seasoned with herbs and spices, with no artificial flavors or colors from artificial sources, Knorr helps you turn some wholesome new ingredients into tasty meals you can feel good about eating and enjoy cooking together. Knorr One Skillet Meals are also a great way to try out a new grain and push your boundaries in the kitchen.
Knorr One Skillet Meals can be found at your favorite grocery store including Kroger, in the same aisle as the Knorr sides products.
Tonight we decided to try out the One Skillet Steak & Peppers with Brown Rice and Quinoa Recipe. It was really simple to prepare. I made things easier by stopping by my local Kroger and picking up already sliced beef (think stir fry beef) and cut up peppers and onions. Following the directions, I quickly fried the steak and veggies in some olive oil.
Set the steak and peppers to the side and cook the Knorr One Skillet Meal contents according to package directions. Once the grain is cooked, mix in the cooked steak and peppers and serve.
This was so quick to throw together and it was fun to get into the kitchen and cook together. What could make this even better? Well, if you are a Kroger shopper right now you can save $1.00 on one (1) One Knorr Skillet Meal through 2/28/18.

high heat and cook your steak 3 minutes or until desired doneness. REMOVE from the skillet and set aside.
