From the Back Cover:
Your solution to the dinnertime crunch! Do you have time to plan and create elaborate meals each night? Most of us don't. But the usual alternative, eating out, shrinks our wallets while increasing our waistlines. You want something that cooks quickly and tastes good-something the dis will eat, but appeals to adults too - something that doesn't take a huge bite out of your grocery budget. You have come to the right place.
About the Author:
Renee Pottle was a regular contributor to Pillsbury Fast and Halthy Magazine from 1995-2000, developing vegetarian and two-serving dishes. A cooking enthusiast from a young age, she has been creating new recipes since she was ten years old, although those early dishes were mostly rice and frankfurter concoctions. Luckily her cooking repertoire expanded as she pursued her loves of cooking and science. These interests led her to earn degrees in both Medical Laboratory Science and Home Economics/Business. While teaching Cooking, Food Science, Nutrition, and Health courses at a small school in Maine, she learned from her students which ingredients, in what combinations, were kid-friendly! While meatloaf (for the boys) and chocolate cake (for the girls) were the students' favorites, Renee learned to sneak nutritious items into recipes with their realization that they were cooking something that was tasty and good for them too. She also developed the curriculum for and taught an adult education class, Quick, Healthy, Budget-Friendly Meals. The positive response from this class led her to complile many of the recipes for I Want My Dinner Now! Renee is also the founder of the specialty foods company, Wine Barrel Gourmet.
