“For a quick dinner, my go-to is always the same: Barbecue chicken, salad and Rice-A- Roni!” —Nicole Parks, Rancho Santa Margarita |

“One meal would be to barbecue some chicken, make a salad, and microwave a few potatoes. I am also a huge believer in slow cookers. In less than 15 minutes in the morning, I can throw things in the slow cooker or crock pot, and it is ready to go in the evening.” —Christy Platt, Yorba Linda |

“Spaghetti! It’s always my go-to meal when I’m in a crunch— fast, cheap and easy!” —Olivia Bernal, Laguna Hills |
 |
“If I have 15 minutes for dinner, I usually try and do a stir fry, with or without chicken. It has a lot of veggies in it, and adding brown rice to it makes it even healthier. I like to use fresh veggies and then I will save time using a frozen bag of brown rice.” —Priscilla Tyree, Brea |
Next month’s question: “How do you make sure your kid has a killer Halloween costume without breaking the bank?”
