Have you tried just a maggi mix?? All you have to do is add water to the mix, and add meat, and you've got a meal!
I think maggi puts them out..... could be another brand. Could be continental...
We eat them all the time. There's quite a few. Apricot chicken, malaysian chicken, beefy mince.

Have you got a slow cooker?? We got one recently and with DD its the best $25 we ever spent!
You can just get a packet mix for that as well.
