Must-Haves for Simple Family Meals

It's back to fall, back to work, and back to school time, and we have two buys you need in your life right now to make this busy time just a little bit easier.

When it comes to simple weeknight meals, no one makes it easier to have delicious fresh meals on the table faster than Fresh Express.

Known for their delicious salad kits, they've just introduced these amazing new Hot or Cold Salad and Noodle Meal Kits that are ready to eat in under 5 minutes.

Inspired by restaurant menus, they're available in three flavors: Teriyaki, Asian Sweet Ginger, and Korean Sesame, and feature chilled, freshly chopped vegetables; ready-to-eat, pre-cooked noodles; gourmet dressing sauce; and crispy toppings.

Simply mix the ingredients to eat it cold right out of the bag, or you can add oil to a pan and cook the veggies and noodles for a few minutes to enjoy them hot.

You can also add a protein or use them as a base to create a more complete meal, such as marinated steak, to the Teriyaki meal kit.

The Hot or Cold Salad and Noodle Kits are available for $5.99.

You can find them next to fresh pre-cut vegetables or in the refrigerated produce department at grocers nationwide.

Next up, the PowerXL Stirmax Multi-Cooker .

This ultimate kitchen companion from the PowerXL Brand, a leader in innovative, foolproof kitchen appliances, gives you effortless meal prep.

The advanced stirring technology and versatile cooking functions allow you to stir, shred, and sear all in one appliance.

It features a built-in 360deg automatic paddle that stirs and shreds for you, which is ideal for preparing a wide range of dishes from stews, soups, and even risotto.

Risotto is attention-demanding and requires constant stirring--but the Stirmax Multi-Cooker does it for you and is hands-free.

It's great for so many other occasions, think football season, Thanksgiving leftovers, buffalo chicken dip, chili, queso, and more.

It also features 9 presets, including the Stirmax and Braisemax presets that sauté, sear, and brown first before automatically switching to simmer for perfectly cooked meals in minutes.

It has a spacious 7.5-quart capacity.

The large cooking pot accommodates family-sized portions, perfect for preparing meals for gatherings or meal prepping for the week.

The holidays are coming up, so this would be perfect, and you can cook and serve right in the same pot.

Take it right to the table, then easily clean it up since the inner pot is dishwasher safe.

Get it now on Walmart.com and in stores in November.
