“I’m no longer afraid of dinner time. When my kids were young, it was so nerve wracking, racing in the door with a half hour to get dinner on the table. Now that I’ve learned how to cook my attitude is a lot different. I am trying new ingredients and recipes—and even making up a few things on my own. I just bought my first ham hock for a bean stew—something I would have never done before. But now, making dinner is an experience—something I can enjoy.”

How to Cook Green and with the Seasons Woven into classes are both environmental and seasonal awareness, e.g., winter’s recipes focus on heartier fare made with root vegetables, squashes, winter greens and citrus, while summer features lighter recipes with tomatoes, green beans and zucchinni.
How to Make Fast Ethnic Food To add fun variety to mealtimes, recipes include fast international flavors like Thai, Chinese, Japanese, Middle Eastern and South American.
How to Cook a Quick Vegetarian Meals Want to eat more vegetarian meals, but uncertain what a meal looks like without any meat in the middle of the plate? Many recipes are for vegetarian entrees.
Healthy Eating How-To No matter what the recipe, you can be sure it will be a healthy one: rich in vegetables, fruits, whole grains and lean proteins and free of human-mutated foods.
Side Dish Suggestions Finally, recipes always include side dish suggestions, since the hardest part about cooking is always knowing what to cook. Take advantage of Mary’s meal planning expertise to get the pesky “What’s for dinner?” question out of the way.
