What to Have for Dinner

Main dish recipes are the foundation of any meal and can be anything from vegetarian fare to gourmet holiday dishes. If you think you don't have the time or energy to create tasty and satisfying main dishes for your family, think again. There are many options that don't take a lot of time.

• Make dinner the night before in the crock pot. Place all your ingredients in the slow cooker and place it in the fridge overnight. In the morning, just pop the crock in the cooker, turn it on, and find dinner waiting when you come home.

• Make a main dish casserole. Casseroles with multiple ingredients are really meals in themselves. Casseroles take a lot of the work out of cooking because they save time. Make a double batch the next time you create a casserole and freeze one for those busy nights when you need a quick main dish.

Handy Tips for Main Dish Recipes

• Cook your main dish and vegetables in a foil packet together in the oven. The foil keeps the food moist and clean-up couldn't be easier.
• Make a salad as a main dish. Add cubed, cooked chicken to salad "fixins" and top with dressing and cheese. You have a salad that was simple to make and satisfying to eat.
• Toss cooked pasta with warm store-bought sauce for a super-quick main dish.
• When preparing a special gourmet main dish recipe, spend a little more to get high-quality ingredients.
