Very good, there are many food items also available for good health. but A lot of people today don?t have time to prepare elaborate dinners mainly because these things simply take too much time. However, this isn?t really the case. From vegetarian dishes to old-fashioned delectable suppers, you can easily satisfy your loved ones with a hearty meal that is very easy and fast to do.<br/><br/>For all vegetarians, there are a lot of simple meals that can be done in less than 30 minutes. The best part is, these two dishes are perfect for kids too.

GREAT Jan! I have a HUGE confession though - I thought the tin in my pantry was for bean spouts, but it was for bamboo shoots!! I could not wait, as I had prepped all the vegetables and had cubed the chicken, so I went ahead as posted with bamboo shoots instead of bean sprouts! This was easy, tasty and packed a nice punch! I added a little chilli sauce towards the end and we ate this with plain white rice. Made for Holiday tag and also the Asian tag event in the Photo's forum. Merci Jan! FT :-)
