Quick and Easy Recipes (Main Dishes)

This is a personal family collection of main dish recipes chosen from the main index as just a sample of those that I consider quick and easy to make. Preparation is minimal, cooking time is generally 30 to 45 minutes (but no more than one hour) and little supervision is required during the cooking process. Since most of my side dish recipes require little time and preparation, they are not listed here, but can be found in the Recipe Files, as can many more main dishes that are quick and easy to prepare but take longer than one hour to cook. There are many ways to make life in the kitchen easier and some can be found on the Cooking Tips page under Time Savers, as well as additional recipes on the Cooking with Leftovers page.
