This shortcut Mexican fideos recipe is simple, quick, and delicious. It's great as a light meal or side dish. There are many ways to prepare fideos but for me, this is the quickest. When you add the chicken stock, you can add some tomato sauce and a dash of cumin for extra flavor. Add less water if you want drier pasta.
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon canola oil
- 2 tablespoons minced onion
- 7 ounces vermicelli pasta
- 4 cups chicken stock
- 2 cubess tomato-flavored bouillon
Instructions

Heat oil in a large sauce pan over medium-high heat. Add onion; cook and stir 1 minute. Stir in vermicelli; cook until golden brown, about 3 minutes. Add stock and bouillon cubes; cover. Simmer until vermicelli is tender, 10 to 11 minutes.

Jumbo Whole Wheat Blueberry Muffins
I received free blueberries recently. I admit I never actually tasted a real one before. Always the boxed muffin kind. I loved them. Recently switched to whole wheat, so I wanted to try a new muffin recipe out. This is the one that not only turned out great, but filling as well. When I was eating it, I was craving eggs. Next time I will have to remember to throw in a fried egg or two on the side. I made 6 jumbo muffins.
Slow Cooker Stuffed Peppers
These are slow-cooked stuffed peppers. Red or yellow bell peppers can be used instead of green. Italian diced tomatoes can be used in place of fire-roasted if desired.
Air Fryer Bacon-Wrapped Scallops with Sriracha Mayo
This delicious appetizer is prepared quickly and easily in the air fryer and served with a spicy Sriracha mayo dipping sauce. I use the smaller bay scallops for this. If you are using jumbo scallops, it will require a longer cooking time and longer strips of bacon.
