In the authors' sixth book, six sisters who blog at SixSistersStuff.com (actual siblings Camille, Kristin, Elyse, Stephanie, Lauren, and Kendra) share quick and easy dinner recipes for busy families. Featured meals made in 30 minutes or less include such dishes as parmesan pork chops and turkey cranberry wraps. Other highlighted fare, including pizza quesadillas and meatball subs, are made with no more than five ingredients. For readers who have to rely on what's in the cupboard for "pantry favorites," there's Dad's Goulash and French dip crescents, assuming you have meat in the fridge. Also presented are slow cooker meals (sirloin beef tips and gravy, Hawaiian hula chicken) and freezer meals (four-cheese lasagna, baked taquitos). The reliable casserole is also represented with chicken and stuffing bake and the John Wayne casserole, among others. Easy baked salmon and stuffed pepper soup are listed as "one pan, one pot meals." Sections such as "Cooking Hacks" and "Kitchen Shortcuts & Timesavers" offer preparation tips. Color photos entice throughout.
VERDICT While these recipes are fairly easy to execute, planning to have the necessary ingredients in the pantry is paramount. Overall, a handy recipe guide that offers a cornucopia of ideas for those with a hungry tribe to feed.
