Dump Dinners: 101 Easy, Delicious, and Healthy Meals Put Together in 30 Minutes or Less! (dump dinners, dump dinner recipes, crockpot recipes, dump ... recipes, healthy recipes, healthy cooking)

I was raised on recipes that used Campbell's Cream of Chicken and Cream of Mushroom Condensed Soups as main ingredients, so when I saw similar recipes under the heading 'Dump Dinners' that my Mom used in the 60's, I just had to laugh. Everything old becomes new again.It was a good thing it was FREE. I still have copies of most of these that Mom gave me when I moved out. If you aren't old enough to be raised on casseroles and crockpots, and you need to feed a family with a one dish recipe, these will fit the bill.I want to make one thing perfectly clear, a casserole is not a gourmet feast. You may even equate them with Velveeta and indigestion. Not to worry, for a family meal, there are some good ones here. The recipes are arranged by type:ChickenBeefPork / TurkeyVegetarianDessertsEarly last century Dump Cakes were popular, as you mixed everything together and dumped it into a pan, often over fruit pie filling. Old cookbooks contain many different recipes for dumping. Now we have Dump Dinners, which is just a mashup of half of a century old name with fifty year old recipes.If you weren't force fed a steady diet of these, give 'em a shot, but make sure to alternate with pizza, or something else, otherwise your kids will rebel.

Author Ruth Ferguson has whipped up a pretty nifty cookbook filled with plenty of easy-to-fix recipes. Some of the recipes are what I would consider casseroles although the author has termed them dump recipes. Whatever the recipes are called they should be easy on the cook.Some of the recipes you'll find in her cookbook include:Creamy Peanut ChickenChicken Mushroom CasseroleChili PieEasy MeatloafTuna Noodle CasseroleCheesy Pork ChopsCrock-Pot EggplantMexican DipThere is an interactive table of contents making navigation easy.Recommend.

This is an excellent book of quick-fix and time-saving recipes. Some may complain about things like canned soup, but you can substitute low-fat or fat-free, low/no salt, or your own cream-of-something mixes. The other thing is that you aren't eating these every day for every meal. The idea behind dump dinners is the ability to have a meal ready if you are caught short on time, or your son calls at 4:30 p.m. and says he's bringing three friends home for dinner after basketball practice.Read through the recipes and pick out a few, then keep those ingredients onhand for those times when you need something easy and quick. There are quite a few crock pot recipes, and even a couple that only make two servings.
