Azteca Prize Winner is number 32 Jeffrey!

I create a meal plan at the beginning of the week and if I know a dinner will take longer to make than we have because of sport or other commitments I make what I can ahead of time. I am a firm believer in the home cooked meal, I haven’t ate at “McBurgerBell” in over 20 years! My kids get to go there when they stay with their grandma and I am fine with that, its only a couple of times a month.

I love that you use a meal plan.  Planning ahead and looking at what your week will bring is always the best way to stay on top of the almighty schedule!  Jeffrey shoot me an email with your full name and mailing address and we will get your prize right out!  Have a great week!

______________________________________________________________________

Need to get a healthy, fresh, dinner on the table fast for your crew?  BBQ Chicken and Pineapple Quesadilla Pizzas, made with Azteca No Artificial Preservative flour tortillas, are just what the team ordered!!

BBQ Chicken and Pineapple Quesadilla PizzaFIRST I need you to know that Azteca is giving me a $75 gift card to Walmart, seventy-five bucks people!!  And coupons for free Azteca tortillas, as well as an awesome 365 Happy Planner that will help you get a handle on your schedule and have more family table time! Don’t forget to CHECK IT OUT BELOW.  Now as I was saying….If you’re  like me you’re in the thick of it with fall schedules!  Hows dinner time going?  I know, I know, it’s tough, but I’m here to help!  No matter how busy your schedule is there is still time for a homemade meal for your family.  I think so many people think homemade meal needs to be time consuming and complicated.  Not true!

 

BBQ Chicken and Pineapple Pizzas + GIVEAWAY3 Easy Tips for getting dinner on the table fast:

  1. Keep bags of cooked meat, like ground beef or shredded chicken, premeasured in your freezer for quick quesadillas, soups, pizzas, or tacos.
  2. I always like to keep bagged salad in my crisper it’s prewashed and ready to go add a little cheese, some croutons, your favorite salad dressing and you’ve got some color in your diet.  Or use it to make a quick wrap: chicken, cheese, lettuce, ranch dressing, Voila!
  3. I always keep flour tortillas on hand.  I can quickly make my kids quesadillas, tacos, breakfast burritos,  a healthy wrap sandwich, or even pizza!  And if you have a night that is too busy to sit down a quesadilla, wrap, or burritos is easy to eat on the go.

 

 

BBQ Chicken and Pineapple Quesadilla Pizza with Azteca all natural flour tortillasYou can find Azteca flour tortillas with the freshest foods in the refrigerator section of Walmart and Family Fare stores!  Azteca No Artificial Preservative flour tortillas are not made with high fructose corn syrup, or artificial colors or flavors of any kind, they are part of Aztecas better for you options which includes tortillas with added calcium, vitamin D, and whole wheat flours!  Not only are these flour tortillas better for you they taste amazing as well, just ask my kiddos!

 

BBQ Chicken and Pineapple Quesadilla PizzaBBQ Chicken and Pineapple Quesadilla pizzas are basically all of our families favorite things smashed into one, quesadillas, pizza, and BBQ, BAM!  The cheese quesadilla becomes the pizza crust, add the bbq sauce, chicken, pineapple, and any other toppings you like.  I added jalepenos and red bell peppers to mine.  You could top them with diced avocado and some chopped cilantro after they come out of the oven adding more good for you fresh ingredients!

 

BBQ Chicken and Pineapple Quesadilla Pizza

Come to momma!!  Quesadilla pizzas are so easy and mmmMMMmmh! so good!  Ignore the unsightly bandaged finger.  I sharpened my knifes and well then cut my finger off….almost.

    Keep it healthy by keeping it simple. Roasted chicken and veggies or soup filled with veggies.

    As a working mom, fast meals are always the case at our house. My tip would be to plan meals ahead of time and always have the essentials on hand like cheese, cut up fruits and veggies, defrosted chicken breasts, tortillas or naan, salads, pre-cooked rice, etc. This makes it easier and faster to get dinner on the table to a bunch of hungry kids/hubby!

  3. chellie says

    October 12, 2015 at 12:30 pm

    Sheila, this looks great! My best tip is the same as Sylvia’s, having a plan is key! When I’m feeling unmotivated in my planning I give each night a theme (pasta, mexican, sandwich night, etc). Then it’s easier to think of something to plan.

    P.S. We had cheese and crackers for dinner last night, thought of you!

    My crockpot is a lifesaver when life is busy. It also is great when everyone can’t eat at the same time.

  5. MomOfSons says

    October 12, 2015 at 9:25 pm

    I’ve never thought to use the tortillas as a pizza type crust, splendid idea! I love simple and few ingredient recipes, and always enjoy reading your posts/blogs! Thank you!

  6. Jessi says

    Planning ahead is the best thing I cam do for my family, and of course my crock pot is a lifesaver! I need at least one meal I don’t have to think about a week!

    • Sheila says

      October 13, 2015 at 10:09 am

      I’m with you my crock pot is not to be taken for granted!

    As usual, creative, healthy and fresh! Thank you for the crust idea as the base for this pizza!

  9. Erika W. says

    October 13, 2015 at 10:35 am

    My best tip is to not buy junk. If you have healthy items at home, you’re going to make healthy food. We love fruits and veggies so we always incorporate that into our meals.

    Wonderful recipe and tips!! I definitely always have flour tortillas on hand for quick sandwich wraps to pack in my kids’ lunches. We also keep cooked meat in the freezer, like you suggested. Great way to quicken up the dinner process! 🙂 (This pizza looks PHENOMENAL!)

  12. Kristen says

    I like to make a big pot of soup with lots of veggies…it’s so easy and everyone can just scoop out what they want and warm it up to eat anytime.

    My best tip is Make it fun for kids to try new fruits and veggies! Let them pick out a new fruit or vegetable in the grocery store each week, and figure out together how to cook or prepare it in a healthy way. This makes being healthy easy!

    I make ahead my meals (freezer meals) using healthy ingredients as well as lean meats then take my freezer meal out the night before to thaw. This saves so much time during the week. I also make slow cooker freezer meals.
