Answer
Healthy Turkey Sandwich
Ingredients
2 slices fresh Whole Wheat Bread
3 thin slices of Turkey Breast
1 Tbsp. Mustard, or Horseradish, or Basil Pesto
1 Tbsp. Fat-Free Mayo (optional)
1 Tbsp. grated Parmesan Cheese*
1/2 sliced bell pepper
2 slices of Tomato
1 very thin slice of Sweet Onion
1/2 cup mixed Salad Greens
Salt & Pepper to taste
Directions
Put your mayo and mustard on your bread. Put the turkey slices on the bottom slice of bread, followed by the sliced vegetables and salad greens. Grate Parmesan cheese over the open sandwich and add salt & pepper to your taste. Close the sandwich and enjoy this healthy treat!
You may like to garnish with olives, or my favorite, pickled banana peppers.
Caesar Chicken Wrap
Caesar Dressing Recipe
1 clove of Garlic
2 Tbsp chopped Parsley
2 Tbsp Anchovy Paste
1 tsp Dijon Mustard
1 1/2 Tbsp fresh Lemon Juice
1/2 cup regular Mayonnaise (Best Foods, etc)
Combine all the above ingredients in a food processor and blend until the dressing is smooth.
Ingredients
2 Tortilla Wraps
2 Tbsp Olive oil
Romain Lettuce
2 boneless skinless Chicken Breasts
Handful of Croutons
Salt and Pepper
Directions
First you are going to want to roast the chicken breasts. Brush olive oil onto the chicken breasts. Grind a healthy amount of fresh pepper and salt onto them. Let them bake for 35 to 40 minutes at 375f.
When they are finished allow them to cool enough to handle them, and chop into 3/4 inch cubes.
Wash and dry several large leaves of the Romain lettuce.
Lay the wrap out and spread a medium thick layer of Caesar dressing across them.
Add a couple leaves of lettuce on top of that and heap on some cubed chicken and croutons.
Add a second bit of Caesar dressing onto the chicken, and finish off the wrap with as much Romain as you can stuff into it.
Tuna Melt

1 cans of tuna in water, drained
1/4 cup of mayonnaise, just enough to coat ingredientstwo sticks of celery, chopped finely
1/8 cup of chopped onion
Pinch of Salt
Pinch of Pepper
2 slices of Rye Bread
2 slices Swiss cheese
1 slice of ripe tomato (optional)
Directions
Lightly toast the rye bread.
Combined the drained tuna with the mayonnaise, celery, onion, salt and pepper in a bowl.
Spoon tuna mixture onto two slices of the rye bread.

Classic Ham Sandwich

Directions
Take your bread, Toast it. Or Don't, it's your choice.Spread your Mayonnaise and Mustard.

Add your Onion and tomato slices.Add Lettuce. Red leaf lettuce is a nice, delicate lettuce. But if you'd like a more crisp texture, try green leaf lettuce. Of course, feel free to experiment and make this sandwich your own!

What are some quick and easy meals a teen can make themselves?
Drama Quee
Due to parents getting new jobs, the last week or so I've had to make and eat dinner myself. I've been restricted to microwave meals and tacky Iceland meals due to a lack of knowledge of what to make.
Does anyone have any suggestions, with recipes please?
I'm 15, btw.
Many thanks in advanced x
Answer
I had to deal with that after moving out :) Plus I have a busy schedule of college and work, so I needed fast, but healthy recepies.
chili-mac - make the mac and cheese according to the box, when the noodles are cooked, add a can of chili (the kind with no beans)
Oven roasted chicken thighs (or any type of meat) - for the chicken, just season them with salt and pepper, or any other seasoning lying around the house, then stick them in the oven at 350 degrees for 45 minutes.
rice (easy) - small rice cookers are like 10-20 dollars, and way worth it! Just get a bag of rice from fry's, I prefer short grain (I believe the bag is white with jasmine printed on the outside) Put 1 1/2 cups of rice, rinse it out with your hands, then fill it to about an inch over the rice. Then just click the switch, 20 minutes and it's done!!
>>A great meal is the chicken and rice together, then just microwave a can of veggies.
tuna sandwiches - boil two eggs (for hard boiled, leave them in the boiling water for 5 min) While they're boiling, drain the can of white albacore tuna, then pour the tuna into the bowl. Add two knifefulls of mayo and a little salt and pepper to taste. Cut up the boiled eggs then mix in, eat on toasted bread! :)
cheeseburgers - there are pre shaped frozen patties at frys. It comes in a pack of 15, for like 13 dollars. Just toss them on the frying pan on medium heat, brown it, add salt and pepper, then when it's all brown, add a slice of cheese on top and wait like 2 min till it melts, done!
chicken patties - same thing, frys for like 10 dollars comes with 20 patties. Put them on aluminum foil into the oven for 18 minutes, serve with mayo.
spaghetti - this one you probably know!
Another great side I recently discovered are the "au-gratin" potatoes with cheese. You just add milk and cook them for 20 minutes in a casserole dish, I ate mine on the side with hot dogs.
Lol, I definitely don't have time to stand in the kitchen for an hour cooking! :)
Good luck!
