Before I became a parent, I often scoffed when the term “Fright Night” was used to describe a busy weeknight. I mean, get it together! How crazy could a random Tuesday or Wednesday evening actually be?

Friends, I humbly beg for forgiveness, for I have seen the light.

Our family’s dynamic has changed through the years. Whereas we used to enjoy casual, unhurried dinners (actually eaten at the dinner table), today our demanding jobs and activities pull us in different directions. My husband is in sales, so he’s often on the road or working late. My job has no set hours; I could be working at 5:30AM or 11:00PM, depending on the day. Ryder has karate twice a week, Reid has coding twice a week, and they both have skiing and skating once a week. And yet somehow, the expectation is that I’ll produce a delicious, healthy meal that the entire family will love.

So, what if I told you that I’ve found quick and delicious, fully cooked and, most importantly, KID FRIENDLY foods that are ready when I am?

Let me reintroduce you to Janes. …

If you think you can’t cook, you’re not alone.

For hundreds of years, men (especially) and women across the world have used the “I can’t cook!” excuse to get out of the kitchen. In fact, food prep avoidance is the number one reason that takeout menus exist at all.

But today, I’m here to let you in on a little secret: You CAN cook. You’re just lazy/ scared/ demotivated/ filthy rich.

Thank goodness Maple Leaf Prime offers new ways to keep it simple. With Maple Leaf Prime Naturally fresh Chicken Breast Fillets, Butterflied or Thin Sliced chicken breasts, the cuts are specially selected and perfectly sliced to cut down on prep and cook time.

Translation: Zero tolerance for slackers!

Plus, the chicken is always raised on their own vegetable grain feed, and packaged in their Fresh Sure package (its airtight seal makes sure your chicken stays fresher, longer). And if you change your mind, it freezes beautifully and can be enjoyed another time.

Yes, the cuts do cost a little more than buying chicken by the pound from a poultry farm. But, they still cost a heck of a lot less than takeout, especially if you find yourself dialing for dinner more than twice per week. Imagine how easy prepping dinner is when all the cleaning, trimming and slicing is done for you! Plus, with all the hidden sodium, fat and sugar in fast food meals, you’ll be doing your wallet – and your heart – a favour by sticking to Maple Leaf Prime Naturally.
