Push Mixer and Great, No Fuss, Chicken Mac

Push Mixer

I was kind of looking for a cordless, stick mixer when I came across this.  It is called a Push Mixer.

It does a great job of whisking eggs, pudding, pancake batter etc. by just pushing down and up, spinning the head.  It uses no electricity and is easy to clean.  It is available here on  Amazon.com for $10.
They were selling these at the Quartzsite RV Show "Big Tent" for $20.

Here is a quick, Lo Cal meal I whip up using these ingredients:

Chicken Mac

1 Can Progresso Light Chicken Noodle Soup
1 Can Chicken Broth
8 oz Raw, Boneless, Skinless Chicken Breast, Diced
1 Cup Elbow Macaroni or Pasta of Your Choice.

Put soup, broth and diced chicken in a saucepan.  Bring to a simmer.  Then add the elbow macaroni and simmer 12-14 min or until done. 

Simmering the chicken for 14 min or so is plenty of time for it to cook through.  You don't have to cook it separate and have another pan to wash.

This makes about three, two cup servings.  I added up the calorie count for all the ingredients and it comes out to 371 calories per two cup serving. A great lunch.

Total utensils to wash, one saucepan, one ladle, and one chef's knife. 

By the way, I use paper plates to cut up meat, vegetables, etc. on, so no cutting board to wash.
