Chicken Tortellini Soup With Zucchini and Tomatoes

Submitted by: USA WEEKEND columnist Pam Anderson
Provided by: USA Weekend

Beginning with my Fast Chicken Soup Base it is easy to knock hours off of the cooking time usually needed for homemade chicken soup and still end up with soup that tastes even better than the 'from scratch' method. With a little creativity you can easily make two varieties of these soul-satisfying meals.

Easy Frozen Margaritas

Submitted by: USA WEEKEND columnist Pam Anderson
Provided by: USA Weekend

Authentic margaritas call for lots of fresh lime juice - both expensive and time-consuming. I've found I can shortcut the process by using frozen limeade. And for a festive non-alcoholic drink, combine a 12-ounce can of limeade (thawed) with a 48-ounce bottle of sparkling water.

Perfect Cherry Pie

Submitted by: USA WEEKEND columnist Pam Anderson
Provided by: USA Weekend

Cherry pie is just about the easiest fruit pie to make. Sour cherries -- the kind you need for pie -- are rarely available fresh or frozen, so the canned variety usually is the only option for most cooks. Not only do canned cherries make good pies, but there's also no peeling, coring, seeding, pitting or slicing the fruit. Just drain, dump, sweeten, flavor and thicken, and you're in business.

Perfectly Simple Pumpkin Cheesecake

Submitted by: USA WEEKEND columnist Pam Anderson
Provided by: USA Weekend

Pumpkin cheesecake is not technically a pie, but it does have a crust and has become a Thanksgiving classic. And I've simplified its crust, too: Simply lay whole graham crackers in the pan, then spread melted butter and sugar over the crackers, and bake.

Roasted Mushroom Salad

Submitted by: USA WEEKEND columnist Jean Carper
Provided by: USA Weekend

Don't expect conventional nutrients from mushrooms, but they have hidden anti-cancer activity and may stimulate immune function, research finds. Add red pepper's vitamin C, olive oil's good fat, and the antioxidants in basil and garlic for a very healthful salad.

Grilled Fajita Steak Salad With Pickled Pink Onions

Submitted by: USA WEEKEND columnist Pam Anderson
Provided by: USA Weekend

A homemade rub, made with cumin and salt and pepper seasons the steak before it goes on the grill, and fresh lime juice and minced fresh garlic are used in the post-grill marinade. Red and yellow peppers are grilled at the same time as the beef. Both the meat and veggies are sliced into strips, and then tossed with salad greens and a simple lime dressing.

Instant Strawberry Ice Cream

Submitted by: USA WEEKEND columnist Pam Anderson
Provided by: USA Weekend

Why make my homemade 'instant ice cream' when buying good strawberry ice cream is equally instant? You have to taste this frozen treat to know why. It's half sweetened strawberries and half cream, so the ratio of fruit is extraordinarily high, giving this ice cream an amazingly fresh strawberry flavor. It's not smooth, but what it lacks in creaminess, it more than makes up in fruit-flavor punch.
