Foodie Friday #15 - Quick Dishes For A Busy Gal

Hey all - It's been a pretty busy week as I mentioned earlier working in the garden, fixing up the house in honor of guests this weekend, and adding a complete office makeover on a whim...not good planning on that one! :) I am happy to say it is almost done but time is a tickin' and I am under the wire. I need to get the office cleaned and start something for dinner before E gets home...

In case you are feeling like me, totally time deprived and needing a speedy meal, my features are quick meals to feed your loved ones pronto! Let's get to it...


Summer Soup - Ms. Enplace. This is the perfect "soup" for this time of year...especially with home gardens starting to flourish!


Zesty Black Bean and Corn Salsa - Small Town Life. Raid the pantry for some staples that will get this dish served up in a jiff. you know how I love me some tex-mex.


Fruit And Veggie Lettuce Wraps - Peas and Crayons. This is a simple way to add flavorful fruit to veggies...or veggies to flavorful fruit! No matter how you dice it (seriously, it's diced) you can add your own spin and you'll have a fresh dinner in no time. Jennifer added some shrimp to some of the wraps...um, yes, please!



Simple Pasta Sauce - Run DMT. In my opinion, everyone should have the staples for this dish in their house at all times. This is super fast and the red pepper flakes give it just the right amount of kick!

Congrats, Ladies! Don't forget to grab your featured button from the side bar! :)

  7. yum yum yum -- we just made the summer "soup" for lunch -- took all of 5-10 minutes to prepare, and it is delicious! Goat cheese and green onions are underrated...
