5 Ingredients or Fewer

Half-Baked Potato

This recipe is for one person—you can expand it as necessary.

Curry-Crusted Bananas

These bananas—crispy on the outside and soft on the inside—are wonderful served with baked ham, pork chops, or lamb.

Sour Cream Butter Biscuits

These biscuits take me back to my days at The Bag Lady. I would put a couple of these in each lunch container for an extra treat! They are wonderful.

Popovers

These popovers are so good it’s hard to believe they are so simple to make. The secret is starting with a cold oven. And don’t peek for the full 30 minutes.

Plantation Skillet Cake

This is a delicious breakfast dish, very easily prepared and quick to cook. It is something like Yorkshire pudding.

Roasted Red Pepper Vinaigrette

This is great over salad greens and excellent with fish; you can also use it as a light veggie dip. I recommend roasting fresh red bell peppers, but if time doesn’t allow, substitute a 14-ounce jar of roasted red peppers, drained, adding 1 teaspoon of sugar to ensure sweetness.

Balsamic Vinaigrette

This dressing is especially good on tossed greens with tomatoes, red onion, and crumbled blue cheese.

Mocha Sauce

This sauce is wonderful on pound cake, ice cream, and many other desserts.
