When life gets busy, eating good, nutritious food can be a challenge. The goal of this book is to offer some healthy and delicious meal ideas for quick Weeknight Dinners that are 30 minutes or less to prepare.

Our mission was to keep these recipes simple, affordable, quick-to-make, healthy, and practical. The collection includes a wide range of noodle and rice dishes that can be quickly cooked on the stovetop, quick breads, tasty baked main dishes, and of course, some desserts for mid-week treats. All of the recipes use easy-to-make ingredients from scratch.

As a child, I remember my mom preparing homemade food from scratch for us every night for dinner. She made it seem effortless. I learned from her that the secret to easy weeknight cooking was having a reliable and easily adaptable collection of recipes to turn to when you have little time.
