Short on time but the occasion calls for a fabulous dinner? Microwave Beef and Vegetable Teriyaki can fill the bill according to Shannon Peterson Edgel, Homemakers Schools home economist. Edgel proposes starting with a whirlwind trip through the supermarket. super-market. Grab a bottle of teriyaki marinade in the condiment aisle on the way to get a package of quick cooking rice. At the meat case, pick up a package of boneless beef strips pre-cut for stir-fry. Stop at the produce section or salad bar for carrots and broccoli. Add a cantaloupe for dessert. Most important, don't forget a box of large-size REYNOLDS Oven Cooking Bags. To save time in preparation, cooking and clean-up, Edgel urges using REYNOLDS Oven Cooking Bags. Mix and marinate ingredients right in the bag. Because REYNOLDS Cooking Bags hold in heat, foods cook more evenly in the microwave. Meats are tender and flavorful, and sauces thicken without constant stirring. She emphasizes that any mess is contained in the bag, so there's little clean-up. While the beef strips marinate for Microwave Beef and Vegetable Teriyaki, ready the vegetables. Edgel emphasizes that microwave- safe REYNOLDS Oven Cooking Bags are made to go from the refrigerator to the oven. Simply add the vegetables to the beef strips already in the bag and cook. While the beef and vegetables are cooking, she suggests preparing the rice and cutting some melon fans for a festive fes-tive dessert. To make the melon fans, cut diagonal di-agonal wedges in thick slices of cantaloupe using CHICAGO CUTLERY BonerUtility Knife. Start with a straight cut down about 34 of the way through the melon slice. Next, make a slanted diagonal cut to meet the first cut. Lift out the wedge. Repeat the straight and slanted cuts until the end of the slice is reached.
