I used a life line today. Called on an old friend for the answer. No I wasn’t playing Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?. But I did find myself flat out of time to make dinner today. I pulled out one of my fast food suppers and somehow managed to get dinner on the table before I was handed a pink slip. Some days are just like that.
I owe my speedy supper to a long time favorite marinade by Soy Vay called Veri, Veri Teriyaki. It’s readily available at all THREE of my grocery stores so I keep it on hand at all times for days like today. It’s delicious on salmon, chicken and vegetables. I also keep ice glazed, frozen chicken tenderloins stocked in the freezer. They are quick to defrost and easy to add to any recipe. At some point around noon, I pulled the tenderloins from the freezer, tossed them in a baggie with a generous portion of Soy Vay and allowed the meat to defrost and marinate for the rest of the day in the fridge. At dinner time I made brown rice and stir fried a mix of broccolini, broccoli and onions with the chicken tenderloins then topped it all off with a handful of cashews.
What speedy suppers do you fall back on when life deals you one of those days?
I head to Mi Cocina & make sure to order a margarita before they put the menu down.
I TOTALLY used my Soy Vay today too!!! Baked some chicken in it because I had to prep some meals for the rest of the week! YUM! Great minds think alike!
AND
Asparagus soup… but I only have me (sometimes Nerd) to feed not 5 others!
Ha! I used it tonight, too! I was so excited when I saw my local store carries it. Served it to my toddler-cold on cold broccoli- and she gobbled it up! I also keep those frozen dumplings on hand and we love to serve it alongside as a dip.
OH! This stuff is great. There are so few bottled sauces I actually like, and this is at the top of the list.

I haven’t tried this kind but will. I love spur of the moment stir-fry with whatever I have on hand thrown into the mix. Speedy suppers for me usually consist of a pasta dish or black bean burgers!
My new favorite quick meal…Naan Bread pizza. It comes in whole wheat – it’s a flat bread. Put any toppings you like on it.
What brand of chicken tenders do you buy Kristin?
I caved in and bought the Soy Vey today. I have really missed out by not knowing about this. It is ready for dinner—trying it out on steamed broccoli! 1/2 the broccoli is gone due to my “taste testing” for all. Yum!
canchicken be marinated in soyvay, cooked, and then frozen in soyvay?
