Still really great--a keeper, I'll definitely make it again. Hopefully with fresh sage next time. I bet carrots would be another good addition.

No picky toddlers in our house, but I like how quick and easy this one sounds, so I'll be sure to give it a try. Mmmmm… sounds good!

I don't think they have ever let me down with a recipe and some of them are so easy I wonder why I never thought to make them on my own. I don't know if you've tried any of their skillet pasta meals but they've become a real treat at my house on weeknights. What used to be boring spaghetti with jarred sauce is now typically a one pan meal with meat, vegetables, pasta and delicious homemade sauce. It takes just about the same amount of time to make with far more satisfaction. I also give thumbs up to their stovetop chicken pie recipe, a staple at my house, and the white bean chili. The chili might be from ATK, actually, but it's still great. Have you tried the CC recipe for roasted carrots? They listed three or four seasoning combinations that are all delicous. The asian variation is my favorite. Yum! Cooks Country is just amazing.

I really like the idea of adding potatoes, though. On the menu for the week--our CSA has potatoes right now too.
