Bored with Cooking Club
Two quick and delicious ways to face fall schedules

Completely bored with cooking? Tired of looking through old magazines for something that sounds interesting? A new unofficial club has formed - the Bored with Cooking Club. Share your recipe SOS and help out the other cooks in town who want some proven fast and easy meal ideas.

Life can be fast-paced, but it's great to slow down for some food and fellowship - without the fuss! Share your recipes with all of us by sending your favorite standby to vici@gulfbreezenews.com. Family favorites are great to share, or a quickie that prepares without a lot of fuss, but is deceptively delightful to the palate...

This week's contribution is provided by Sandy Bell, who not only helps the City of Gulf Breeze function, but is renown for her catering! "Here are two recipes that are easy and good," she says. "The basic recipe is from Weight Watchers, but I have made several personal adaptations. So not only are they good, they are good for you and if you don't tell anyone they will never know."
