velma 6 Report post Posted April 9, 2012 Thank you so much Mrdee, this recipe was truly a life saver.. You have no idea how sick the family is from eating plain white / red sauce pasta (that's the only one my bro has mastered). My brother with the help of my mother followed your recipe and it turned out to be a really delicious dish (Wish I had taken the pictures).Do you by chance have a recipe that doesnt take too long in terms of prep & cooking? I usually skip meals since I don't get the time to cook but if you have a tasty recipe for a quick bite like a sandwich or maybe something with oatmeal.. I would LOVE IT! . The topic for quick recipes I opened years ago all have great ideas but I am sure you could add more to itAnd do add chicken dishes to it, could put my friends to some good use if the recipes are for quick cooking Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
