This super-simple glaze adds a really unique kick to pork chops or chicken. To make the glaze, I mixed 3 tbsp honey with 1 tbsp water and chopped up 3 chipotle peppers (seeds removed). That’s it. Seriously.
I made it with Near East brand Curry Rice, one of my favorite quick-side-dish brands. With a wide variety of rice, couscous and pasta flavors that are all far more flavorful than the more mass-market brands like Knorr and Lipton, Near East makes it super easy to keep your side dishes intriguing and flavorful without being too heavy on the salt.
All my cakes come from boxes. My spaghetti sauce isn't from scratch, and I think making my own pasta and bread (unless it comes from a mix…) is rarely worth the effort. I believe individually frozen chicken breasts and ready-made pie crusts are among the best inventions ever. Through these menus, recipes, tips and recommendations, I hope to show that the options for creative cooking are limitless, even when time and money are not.
