I love this book
Maybe it is because it has some great recipes in it for a crazy busy parent like me. It even features my Italian Bread Pizza.
These recipes are quick to make. Like these Italian Steak Sandwiches.
Or this Speedy Lasagna Skillet. Which I think I might make tonight again.
OK, maybe my family has an obsission with Italian inspired foods. This book breaks down each day of the week with a theme. Meatless Monday – which is called side recipes in my house, Tex-Mex Night Tuesday, Italian Wednesday, Comfort Food Thursday and Just for Fun on Friday. The index breaks the recipes down by main dishes, sides, breads. Any way you need to find a recipe you can.
But back to the recipes. This hamburger helper knockoff without the box. This cheeseburger macaroni was also a hit.
And for cheesy bread lovers, there is no lack of recipes for you in here either. This bread is becoming a staple in our house. I stock up when the bread is on quick sale.

Baked beans with kielbassi cut up in it. Kind of like beanie weanies. lol
Smoked sausage, potatoes, and cabbage!
grilled cheese with soup or fresh fruit.
Been married 40+ years. Ever since year 1, our “go to” meal has been fish sticks & french fries. They are better now than in years past. Husband likes beer battered fish fillets & I make oven fries with fresh potatoes. Hey, he loves them!
Everything looks delicious!!!!!
When I’m in a hurry, I like Campbell’s Clam Chowder soup mixed with a can of evaporated milk. Yummy! I need a cookbook, don’t I?
I want to try them all!
crackers and cheese- or maybe peanut butter- with fruit and a bag of frozen veggies. It’s so sad, but the kids actually love it so it’s win-win!
Spaghetti & meatball soup. Packed with veggies, pasta that we love and the premade sausage balls make it over the top!!!
That cheese bread looks delicious!! I’d love to win this cookbook!

I love Gooseberry Patch cookbooks!
We love spaghetti – sometimes we have meatballs, but usually it’s just good ole fashion home-made pasta sauce.

Chili. It’s so versatile, and make a big pot to feed us twice! Next nite, we can have chili dogs, or chili cheese fries, or nachos, or … whatever else we can think of!
Spegettii always is a quick dinner.
Burgers! Super easy!
Roast Beef Hash and Beer Bread!!!
Hash from a can because I work 10 hr. days, but the bread I baked on my day off from this link….
http://www.food.com/recipe/beer-bread-73440 I did read a hint from the original post.. Use Ale instead of beer for a more yeasty, robust flavor. The beer is rather mild and gets lost in eating it with foods like stew or hash.
Fajitas with plenty of carmelized onions and peppers using ground pork with sweet potato fries on the side.
I love spinach and tomato pasta. Quick easy and full of veggies.
I would say it would be hot dogs & tater tots!
tacos
Love the bread and am a big fan of the cook books. Would love to have this one..
Chicken parm and garlic toast…. I always have some in the freezer for nights that don’t go my way;)
spaghetti or tacos
Leftovers, or hope I have a homemade freezer meal handy!
Thanks for a great giveaway!
Scrambled eggs, grits and toast.
Cubed potatoes, onion soip mix, chedder cheese & bacon bits, now to select a meat.. Also fresh pineapple.
Looks so good! Can’t wait to try these recipes. Thanks for posting!
Our go to meal is a big salad, like a Chef’s.

I love all the recipes ! They look so yummy !
I have opened many a can of maple baked beans and cut up hotdogs into them. With four boys there was never enough time and they were always hungry!
Eggs and toast – fast and tasty!
So proud of you! Can’t wait to try some new recipes from my fave recipe books

spaghetti is our go to meal, but these recipes sound like good alternatives
Maybe salmon patties or salad with rotisserie chicken.
My go to meal is frito pie
pot of chili and cornbread
Hate to admit it, but I pull out the chicken nuggets and tater tots.
Nachos
spaghetti!
Pancakes
I take large tortilla chips and spread canned refried beans on them and top with shredded cheddar. We call them “nachos” and the kids love them. I usually have these ingredients on hand so it works when there is no time or nothing else in the house.
I use the rice cooker and bake some chicken! No work.
My go to meal is always baked chicken with stuffing. Easy and the family loves it! Thanks for entering me in the giveaway!
We always keep a jar of spaghetti sauce, noodles and frozen garlic bread in the house so that we can make spaghetti any time.
Love grilled chicken with veggies and salads. Makes up really quick on my grill pan.
Hot dogs – with coney island (chili) sauce I always have some froze. and sweet potato fries
I can’t wait to try the recipes. I love all things Gooseberry Patch and especially your cookbooks! I would love to win the weeknights one!!!
Tomato Soup Hotdish!
Chicken Noodle Soup with carrots, etc., using canned soup. Baguette on the side.
A three-cheese omelette with extra sharp cheddar.
Breakfast for supper. I fry a few sausage patties, make gravy in the drippings, scramble some eggs and bake a pan of corn bread. Then cut up some tomatoes. We mix it all up in a bowl and enjoy.

I’ve been fixing this since the early 60′s but we called them Pizza Witches.
Sloppy Joes!
I’ll serve this easy Bolognese sauce over whole-grain rotini and add a salad or green beans and call it dinner. We all like it and it’s easy to make.
