If you arrive home from work tired and frazzled, read on.
Do you open up the freezer and ask yourself, "What am I going to cook for supper? Do I cook a frozen dinner or do I order take out?"
It's decision time and I want to help you make that choice.
I'm going to share one of the meals that I rely on when the hubby is hungry and I'm dragging from a long day of commuting and work.
Seasoned oven fries cooked in your toaster over, a mixed green salad or craisin coleslaw, and a microwaved main dish.
To feed a hungry husband, you need to cook the whole package of Salisbury Steak. Two patties weigh 4 ozs. and make a skinny gal portion. Three patties weigh 6 ozs. and make a he-man portion. Plus, the 28 ounce package includes two cups of gravy which can be poured over the oven fries or used for another meal.

To feed a hungry husband, you need to cook the whole package of Salisbury Steak. Two patties weigh 4 ozs. and make a skinny gal portion. Three patties weigh 6 ozs. and make a he-man portion. Plus, the 28 ounce package includes two cups of gravy which can be poured over the oven fries or used for another meal.
The Meal
- Put mixed salad greens or coleslaw mix in a bowl and add desired toppings. I love Craisin Coleslaw. It is quick and easy to assemble. Coleslaw is best if it can sit in the frig for 30 minutes (or more) before serving it.
- Prepare the potatoes for Seasoned Fries Ala Toaster Oven and begin baking.
- Follow the package directions for microwaving ( about 20 minutes total time) or baking the Salisbury Steak with Gravy (about 50 minutes). I microwave mine.
The Seasoned Fries Ala Toaster Oven
Ingredients
2 medium sized potatoes, peeled
canola oil
garlic powder
black pepper I like to use fresh ground black pepper.
paprika
Directions
- Slice each potato in half
- Slice each half once, then stack and cut into 1/2 inch cubes
- Put in a one quart bowl
- Add 1 TBSP canola oil, sprinkle with about 1/8 tsp. each garlic powder, fresh ground black pepper, and paprika. Add more if you wish.
- Stir potatoes cubes until they are well coated with the oil and seasoning
- Remove toaster oven tray from your toaster oven. Put 1 tsp. of canola oil on the tray and spread it out to coat the tray.
- Place potatoes in a single layer on your toaster oven tray
- Bake at 375 degrees for 20 minutes.
- Carefully remove hot tray, turn cubes over with a spatula, and replace hot tray back into toaster oven.
- Bake for about 20 minutes more (until potatoes are golden and tender.)
