Anyone who has tried to fix dinner, clean up after, eat with their family and still make the devotional on time knows that time is precious. There are several recipes that can help with the time issue without costing all the money of purchasing pre-packaged meals. One trick is to pre-cook all your meat (whether chicken, beef, pork, or any combination thereof). Place it all in the freezer, in pre-measured increments. Then when the time comes, that will save you a good 20 minutes every day.
One of my favorite dishes at the pageant is soup. It is more difficult to eat in a hot year, but you never know which year will be hot and which will not. So I plan several soups every year. Some are easier than others, but this one is super simple. I got this recipe from a family members ward cookbook. We eat it all the time at home, especially in the winter, or when time is short.
Minestrone Soup - Anna Kennison of West Mountain, Payson, Utah
1 pound hamburger, browned and drained.
1 onion, chopped
3 cans Campbell's Minestrone condensed soup
3 cans water
1 large can pork and beans
1 can tomato sauce
1 tsp oregano
Brown the hamburger and onion. Add the remaining ingredients. Simmer until heated all the way through. So this recipe can be complete in about 20 minutes. It can also be put in a crock pot at lunch time, put on low, and eaten a couple hours later at dinner. Perfect for a family on the go, or for a campground dinner!
