Admit it.

Theres something thrilling about serving up a delicious, home-cooked meal in 15, 20, or 30 minutes flat. Lucky then that, in this book, youll find dozens of dishes and lots of clever tricks and shortcuts that will help you do just that. Because we want you to cook. Its healthier, its usually less expensive, and youll feel a sense of accomplishment and delight in knowing you created something delectable in a snap. Theres nothing more enjoyable than gathering your family and friends around a table and serving a fresh-from-the-oven roast, a nourishing soup, or a scrumptious pie. Why deny yourself these pleasures? The difficulty is we lead busy lives, so its easier to order in or go out to restaurants rather than make ourselves something wonderful and comforting to eat.

Those options are okay once in a while; were not saying you have to cook every single meal. But we do think that when you see how easy it is to do youll find it a viable and healthier alternative to dining out.

In short, weve assembled our greatest hits and hope these recipes will become your greatest hits, too.

For the weekends when you opt for leisure over pace, weve included a chapter devoted to dishes that take a little longer to preparerestorative, comforting, toothsome concoctionsbut are still uncomplicated, including slow-cooker meals that let you relax while dinner cooks itself. Many of these dishes serve six or eight, so you can use them when you entertain or have enough leftovers for an effortless meal later in the week. In addition to great recipes, youll find tips for decluttering and organizing your kitchen, menu planning, and buying the best time-saving tools. We talk about shopping for quality ingredients because starting with fresh, seasonal produce means you get maximum flavor minus the fuss. We tell you which kitchen tasks are worth the time (like maintaining your quick-meal pantry) and which are not (who has time to make homemade pasta?). We also give you our take on which convenience products to invest in and absolutely essential canned goods to keep on hand.
