Breakfast for Dinner with Tyson Breakfast Bowls #cBias

When it comes to my weekly meal planning, I am a big fan of including breakfast for dinner. It is one of those meals that is appealing to everyone and offers many options. When we have breakfast for dinner, it can include anything from scrambled eggs, to omelets, to pancakes, to waffles, to sausage and pierogie, to breakfast sandwiches (bacon, egg and cheese on an English Muffin), to Blueberry Bread Pudding and even on occasion, a bowl of cereal. I like to serve fruit as a side dish when we have breakfast for dinner.

Recently, I had the opportunity to check out the new Tyson Breakfast Bread Bowls. I picked them up at Sam's Club, along with some gorgeous strawberries that I thought would make a great side dish and several other items that we were in need of. You can check out all of the pictures from my shop here, but here are a few highlights:

The Tyson Breakfast Bread Bowls package from Sam's Club comes with 12 bowls.

I like that they are wrapped two to a pack, allows me to make only a portion and know that the rest are still sealed and fresh in my freezer.

Preparation was so easy, just about 3 minutes in the microwave.

Served with a side of pierogie and strawberries, it was a crowd pleaser.

Some might pick up the bread bowl and eat it, but the kids preferred them cut up.

My daughter, of course, needed some ketchup since she always dips her eggs in ketchup.

With such quick and easy preparation, Tyson Breakfast Bowls will make a good option for us for dinner during the upcoming sports season. I always struggle when we are in the thick of practices and games to find quick meal options that allow us to continue to eat as a family every night. Eating as a family is a priority for me.

Tyson Chicken Grilled and Ready

As with any busy mom, there are times that are more busy than others. Right now, we are between sports. Sure, we still have swimming lessons, but that is simply a one night a week commitment. Late Spring and Summer seem to be our busy time. There are generally three nights a week that we have either practice or a game for soccer and baseball.

Even during these times, family meals are important to me (and to my family!). The challenge with family meals during the busy season is that sometimes we are trying to eat before practice, which generally means I have mere minutes from walking in the door to when I need to have dinner on the table, or we are eating after practice, which means that we are pushing into bedtime and I still have a constrained time frame in which to make dinner. The flip side of the challenge is that I want to provide my family with a healthy meal. Sure, I could run through this drive thru or that or pick up carry out every night, but whereas these make nice treats, they can't be a regular part of our menu.

One shortcut that I have found that works well for me is Tyson® Grilled & Ready™ Frozen or Refrigerated Chicken Strips. Many of our favorite meals start with chicken. Normally, the preparation of the chicken is part of the recipe/meal preparation, but with Tyson Chicken Grilled and Ready, I can side step that part of the preparation and move right into the meal. They can make meal preparation a cinch.

The easiest meal is to use them along with some Romaine and Parmesan for a quick Chicken Caesar salad. Served with a loaf of bread, it is a hearty (and yet reasonably light and healthy) meal.

Sometimes, I will take the strips and dice them to use for chicken tacos. I can cut up my toppings in advance (usually the night before), so a quick warm up of the chicken with a little taco seasoning and we are ready to eat.

Making a pasta dish? Simply prep your favorite sauce and add the chicken, while the noodles cook. I like to saute some onions and garlic in a pan. Then, add some canned petite diced tomatoes to the pan. Add the chicken to the sauce, as strips or dice it up if you prefer. Since I generally serve this with Angel Hair, which cooks in a matter of minutes, it is a quick, flavorful meal that I can get on the table on a busy sport night.

The chicken strips also work well for wraps. Grab some of your favorite flavored wraps, along with some tomatoes, lettuce, onions and condiments and let your family build their favorite wrap. You can also add in bacon or cheese. Serve with a side of carrots and celery and/or a cup of fresh fruit salad for a quick balanced meal.
