With a few easy shortcuts, you can cut hours off your cooking time and still end up with a yummy meal you can be proud to serve to your family.
Instead of sitting around, snapping beans for hours you can cheat, just use canned instead. Same goes for carrots. Nobody will know you used canned, unless you tell 'em.
Fried chicken is so time consuming and unhealthy, so instead, fake it and bake it. Less work and healthier... Two birds, one stone.
No self respecting southern meal is complete without some kind of bread. Try making spoon rolls instead of traditional roll and cut biscuits, it saves time and cuts down on the inevitable flour mess that comes along with making biscuits.
What's dinner without dessert?
Preposterous, that's what!!!
Cobbler is a versatile, easy dessert. Heck, it's so easy, you might even get the kids to help you with this one. You can use any flavor of fruit you have handy, throw a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top and you are good to go!
Now, there's no reason why you can't do this, for your family this weekend. They will thank you. It'll probably be an unspoken "thank you" (or if you have boys like mine, it might be phrased in the form of a loud raunchy burp), but a "thank you" nonetheless...Glass half full.
