This is my take on the classic Pan Bagnat with step-by-step photos of how I assembled it, as shown in the recipe; this wonderfully sumptuous French Picnic Sandwich can be made WELL in advance, in fact the night before is best.
Puréeing some of the beans along with the canned tomatoes in this recipe gives the dish a thick texture and a rich, slow-cooked feel. Chipotle chiles are available canned with adobo sauce in many supermarkets and specialty food markets.
Although it may appear dense and rich, this pie feels light and fluffy in your mouth. It’s not difficult to make and always wins raves. (This recipe contains uncooked eggs; if that’s a concern, use pasteurized.)
Spunky Cajun seasoning, velvety black beans and colorful vegetables keep this Cajun-Seasoned Vegetarian Gumbo lively, loaded and interesting. There's plenty of saucy liquid to flavor accompanying rice.
This homemade pudding in this layered dessert is divine, economical, and uses on-hand staples such as milk, eggs, flour, sugar and bananas. The peanut butter sandwich cookies take this trifle over the top.
My kids love chicken potpie, and I really like that this is so quick and easy to put together with frozen veggies and store-bought gravy. To make it even simpler, my friend and I decided to top it with a biscuit crust instead of homemade pastry.
Using canned beans makes this low-fat recipe for enchiladas a snap to prepare. We chose kidney, garbanzo, pinto, and navy beans, but you can use any combination of beans that you like.
Easy-to-assemble layers of cooked noodles, vegetables and creamy cheeses mingle with a rich, chunk-style pasta sauce make dinner extra special tonight or any night.
We use crisp radishes for a bit of crunch and spiciness in this Crab Salad Sandwich. You can also use chopped fennel, celery, thinly sliced fresh apple, or matchsticks of jicama as alternatives.
