A member shared her family's favorite recipe with me this week. She calls it 'Lazy' because it is so simple to make!

This is an easy and tasty dish when vegetables are fresh and plentiful. Delicious over couscous or rice.

This is a staple in our house; it's flavorful but not spicy, filling but not heavy, and absolutely delicious. Our version is an adaptation of Sarah Raven's wonderful recipe. Serve over rice.

This is a very quick, easy, and satisfying meal for any time of year.

Our 7-year-old has begged to make these since discovering the in the school cafeteria ... and after making them at home she said ours are better!

We love this as a pasta sauce, pizza sauce, dip for grilled chicken or sauce for vegetables. If you want to avoid garlic breath after the meal, lightly cook the garlic before adding it to the recipe.

This meal is great for a brunch or dinner and is no more difficult than making pancakes. Do plan ahead though, as the batter needs time to rest.

This is a simple and amazing soup - it is SO worth making your own! This versatile recipe works with fresh or canned tomatoes and fresh or dried basil, making it easy to make any time of year.

This French classic is basically a fried egg over a ham and cheese sandwich. Without the egg, call it a Croque-Monsieur!

You can dress these up as an appetizer with a variety of fun sauces, or just feed them to your kids for a crowd-pleasing family dinner.

This is a great take on a delicious comfort food.

A rich, not-too-sweet jelly that's like nothing you've had before!

Here is a fun recipe - the simple gravy really made the dish

There was a time on our life when we made our own sushi ... then jobs/farm/kids happened! This meal for us and revolutionized our thinking about sushi at home: all the ingredients but very little of the work.

THIS is the dessert you HAVE to make every summer during raspberry season… Just go for it!
