I don't usually include dinners that call for advance prep work.
But this one is so easy and good, I had to include it!

Here's What to Pick Up:   Boneless, skinless chicken breast,
prepared margarita mix. Staples you'll need: olive oil, chopped garlic

In the morning, simply add chicken, enough margarita mix to cover,
a couple tablespoons of olive oil and a couple cloves of garlic to a
ziploc bag.  Give it a little toss and then refrigerate. When ready to eat,
grill or broil the chicken (discarding marinade).

go easy on quantity, a little light sour cream and avocado or guacamole
would be great. Top with salsa.
