Margherita Naan Pizza
I like to pair dishes, like a Margherita pizza, with bold, unconventional flavors, like coriander and nigella seeds.
Pam Anderson’s Weeknight Roast Dinner
If you think roast dinners are for special occasions with lots of prep, long roasting times, and a big cleanup, try this Weeknight Roast Dinner formula. You can have a small roast seasoned and the vegetables prepped by the time the oven preheats.
Pam Anderson’s Stir-Fry Formula

Extra Helping: Great Big Enchilada-ish Bake
Cheese is basically the most expensive of the ingredients here, and even without especially savvy pre-ordering in bulk, I am able to make this and a side vegetable for 140 people for under $200, which is not too shabby.
Extra Helping: Wild Rice Soup
This soup is full of flavors without being overwhelming, full of nutrition without being heavy, and a full meal in one bowl. There are many ways to tailor it to the tastes and preferences of your recipient.
