Fast Track to Delicious: A Recap

When faced with the dinner hour with no ideas of what to make or with minimal ingredients in the larder, hunger pangs can drive us to do and eat crazy things. Suddenly clearing out the fridge and cupboards seems tantamount: I'll finish that jar of pickles to make room, that partial box of crackers, first topped with every jam and marmalade in the fridge. Maybe I'll finally try that jar of pickled clams languishing in the back of the fridge.

But perhaps you're more organized and have more self control. If not, I've compiled a list of five previous posts highlighting quick and easy recipes for lunch, dinner or otherwise. A quick reference should low blood sugar have you considering drastic and unwise measures.

Garlic's involved, as is chicken, pasta and tomatoes, plus options for when there's no protein in sight. Just click on the underlined texts below.

The list

A dead easy and delicious pasta dish.

A garlicky marinade with salt and rosemary for chicken.

Zucchini standing in for pasta.

A quick and easy appetizer, on bread, or even crackers.

Garlic + salt = a simple and kick ass marinade for chicken, roasted, baked or grilled, with fields notes on accompaniments.

Bon appetit!
