what should I tell Tom to get there that will be pretty easy to prepare and that is yummy?
Green curry simmer sauce & frozen tilapia. Serve over rice. Add some Asian veggies if you want it to be really healthy - bok choy, canned bamboo shoots, baby corn, etc.
ma~~~~ to kristin's students and school with a dose of serenity and peace
I need Trader Joes help-
We like their orange chicken (frozen) which is yummy and low fat. It doesn't come with vegetables, but our TJs often has already cut fresh stir fry vegetables, or frozen ones.
Cabernet pot roast, plus one of their ready made salad or veggie dishes?
Hmmm, do they have frozen mashed potatoes? That are decent?
ETA: this is for dinner, and we're looking for a rounded/full meal type thing.
They have frozen stir-fry mixes
we love the Chow Mein - it has five veggies, chicken, noodles (yeah, I don't know why it isn't lo mein) and is teh yum.
Kristen, much ~ma to your student and her family.

Oooh, this, too -- the orange chicken is really good.

I haven't seen that, but they have some in the deli section out here that are pretty decent. There are a lot of frozen veggie dishes though, or you can get several different kinds of veggies (squash, sweet potatoes, fingerling potatos, green beans, etc) in ready to microwave bags.
oh and the frozen sweet potato fries. nom.
I had a post to Kristin but I think it got ated. Sending all positive, miracle thoughts to your student and her family. What an awful situation.
All my ~ma to you, your non-student, and all concerned, Kristin.
