Dinner Made Simple with Success® Rice - Caribbean Jerk Chicken and Broccoli

This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Success® Rice.

We just got back from our first camping trip of the Summer. I love camping but coming home and cleaning up is not so much fun. Also not so much fun is getting home at dinner time and then having to try to find something quick to prepare.

Everybody was starving as I searched the cupboards for something quick and delicious to make. That's when I spotted my Success Rice. I normally have to plan ahead when we want rice as it takes some time. Not with Success Rice. Success Rice is the ORIGINAL no mess, no measure boil-in-bag rice that cooks perfectly every time and is ready in less than 10 minutes. The white and brown rice can sit for up to 30 minutes before being served, making it foolproof.

I also spotted some Caribbean Jerk marinade and my dinner plan quickly came together. I would make Jerk Chicken and broccoli over my Success Rice.

I couldn't believe how easy it was to prepare the Success Rice. You literally drop the bag of rice in a pan of boiling water and it is ready in 10 minutes. I was able to prepare my chicken and broccoli in the time it took to cook the rice and have dinner on the table in less than 20 minutes! And not only dinner but a healthy, delicious and satisfying meal that was quickly gobbled up by our family.

I really loved how Success Rice made our dinner come together so quickly and with no fuss at all the rice was perfectly done to perfection. I came up with my own recipe to get dinner done quickly, however you can visit www.successrice.com for quick and easy recipes you can make any day of the week.

Better Than Take-Out with Minute Ready to Serve Rice

Today was a busy day for our family. We were all out and about and by the time we got home everybody was hungry! Nights like these I need a meal that will go together quickly! My four and two year old boys do not like to wait!

At the store for once I thought ahead and brought home just the perfect quick, yet healthy ingredients for a great meal. Rotisserie Chicken (who doesn't love those, right?), shredded cabbage, Minute Ready to Serve Rice and teriyaki sauce.
I simply had to put the Minute Rice in the microwave for 1 minute (more or less depending on how many servings you use), microwave my cabbage for about 45 seconds, mix the cabbage and rice together and top with chunks of my chicken and teriyaki sauce.

This was so delicious, so quick and best of all completely healthy. I purchased the brown and wild Minute Rice variety, although it comes in a bunch of different kinds. My boys gobbled this right up, as did I. The flavor of the rice and chicken was already so delicious you only need a tiny bit of teriyaki sauce to pack a punch! Might I even say this was better than any take-out we could have bought, and much cheaper too!


There are many nights your family or mine will need a quick meal such as this. There are plenty of healthy options available at your supermarket. Quick doesn't always have to mean junk, so don't beat yourself up over it!
