Notes about Recipes in this book

• PDQ broccoli-cheese soup

  • dianev on August 08, 2015

    Lives up to its name. Good taste, easy and fast. Have made several times.

• Speedy black bean soup

  • dianev on February 24, 2015

    This recipe made the purchase of the book worthwhile. I make it over and over. Wonderful flavor in a vegetarian quick soup made from pantry ingredients.

• Chicken tortilla soup

  • dianev on February 24, 2015

    Good balanced flavor from simple ingredient list. Make a big batch and freeze in smaller portions.

• Kielbasa, cabbage, and potatoes

  • dianev on February 24, 2015

    Who knew mustard was great on cabbage? Be careful that the cabbage doesn't singe as it cooks.

• White bean and chicken chili

  • ellencooks on August 06, 2015

    I've made this many, many times. It goes together quickly but has tons of flavor.

• Stovetop barbecued chicken

  • dianev on August 08, 2015

    I added a few squeezes of bottled barbecue sauce at the end to thicken and add more flavor. Started with frozen chicken. Very fast and easy.

• Flexible jambalaya

  • dianev on August 08, 2015

    A real mishmash. Made three meals for two people.

• Topsail spaghetti

  • dianev on August 08, 2015

    Have also made this with "Mexican" tomatoes, cumin, chipotle, chili powder, a little oregano.

• Apollo's pasta

  • kateiscoooking on March 10, 2017

    Used a whole tin of rolled anchovies. Melted most of them into the sauce and heated the sauce. Used a can of diced tomatoes plus the juice. Added a good number of capers too. Omitted the red wine vinegar. We loved the feta cheese on top. This would also make a great chilled pasta salad.

• Sloppy Janes

  • dianev on February 24, 2015

    So much better than the mixes and very quick to make.

• Hot cats with fish camp tartar sauce

  • dianev on August 08, 2015

    Sprinkle fish with Cajun Seasoning before flouring.

• Garlic cheese drop biscuits

  • dianev on August 08, 2015

    Just like at Red Lobster.
