Simply Suppers Cookbook Giveaway!
If you read my turkey burger post, you may have noticed the disclaimer at the bottom that I received the cookbook from Thomas Nelson publishers. Well, good news – they are also letting me give three cookbooks away! The cookbook is called Simply Suppers, and, from the publishers description, is a “collection of comfort foods that can be prepared in 30 minutes or less.”
So far, the turkey burgers are the only thing I’ve made from the cookbook, but I’ve got quite a few more recipes bookmarked to try. The Peanut Butter Cup Tart in particular is calling my name! The recipes all appear to be fairly simple and quick to make, and definitely fulfill the claim of comfort food. I love the variety of recipes, and while there are a few recipes that don’t appeal to me (corn chowder will never appear on my dinner table), I really do want to make most of the recipes in the book. The cookbook seems to focus on classic recipes that are dinnertime staples, and it seems like it was made for busy moms or wives who try to get a homecooked meal on the table as often as possible, but don’t always have a lot of time. This is down home cooking with quick prep time. Based on my husband’s review of the turkey burgers, the cookbook is “husband-friendly” as well. Best of all, there are beautiful photos of the recipes to show you what the finished dish should look like!
Welcome! I'm Megan and it's my hope that here you'll find food that has been made with love and recipes that are shared with joy. Thanks for stopping by! 
My family enjoys plain and simple tacos – and I'm not complaining ๐

This cookbook looks great! One of our favorite simple suppers is breakfast for dinner. I always try to mix it up with either a frittata, biscuits and gravy, hash, pancakes, you name it! We love breakfast and like to have it as often as possible, not just in the morning (:

I follow you on facebook! My favorite fast meal is like a goulash. I just take whatever ground meat I have handy (turkey, chicken or beef – could even be leftover taco meat or roast) I add that to a pot of cooked macaroni noodles then add whatever I feel like – usually a can of diced tomatoes with basil & onions. A little tomato paste and some chili powder. Sometimes I add some leftover spaghetti sauce if I have it or even some black beans. You can add a little shredded cheddar and viola – that was really quick and filling!
I like to make tacos, the kids love breakfast for dinner, which we had last night!
My favorite comfort meal is a baked potato bar. I also make this to take to someone following surgery or having a new baby. Much of the prep can be done ahead of time and I can get creative with the toppings.

My simple suppers usually consist of stuff like this: sautee onions, tomatoes and garlic until perfect – leave them chunky. Pour tomatoes and all their juices over thinly sliced zucchini and smother in fresh mozzarella cheese. Bake and serve with pasta which has been sauteed in garlicky olive oil. I made this just this week in fact!
I get email updates and follow you here on your beautiful blog! ๐
I'm single so I don't really worry about cooking for a family, but my favorite simple supper is taking one night to make a whole batch of turkey meatballs and freezing them, then when I need something comforting but quick, I bake what I want in the oven then toss them with fresh tomatoes, basil, and whole wheat pasta!
This looks like a great book!I love making vegetable soup. ๐ There's nothing more comforting to me than a nice bowl of homemade soup.
My go-to is buttered noodles with frozen veggies. The kids like it and I can clean out my freezer with all of the bottom-of-the-bag-veggies. Quick, healthy, and easy!

(and i follow you on google reader. and eat way too many of those soft pretzel bites since i made them for the super bowl and now keep a permanent supply of bite size pretzel dough in my freezer.)

This sounds great — I am all about both simple and comfort food! We cook very little at home that doesn't in some way involve prepackaging. But sister sent us some great frozen fish from Alaska, so we've been trying to branch out with fish fillets.
