Grilled Chicken Flatbread Pizzas

"This is an excellent way to enjoy your gas grill, use up some leftovers and cook up something beautiful and delicious in just a few minutes. Great for the day after a barbecue party when you discovered you made too much of something! This one is leftover grilled chicken, but I think it would work with any leftover grilled meat (except, perhaps, hot dogs). I made this today for lunch, after we finished, my daughter said it would have been better with some fresh basil, so I have added that to the ingredients."

Quick and Easy Tuna Salad Sandwich for Kids of All Ages

"This tuna salad has anyone at bay. Simple and delicious."

Yummy, Fast and Easy Roast Beef Wrap

"This is something that I throw together when I am in a crunch for something to feed my kids, or myself. I love wraps, and love trying to make new ones. Dip it in Ranch dressing, or any dressing that you like. Cut them up for appetizers, or use for a snack or light dinner. Yummy yummy!"

Easy Cheese-Tomato Melt

"I am a true foodie!. And now that I have made the commitment to losing some excess baggage, I look for good tasting dishes. This is one I use as breakfast, but it is good for any time. I prefer Pepperidge Farms Light Style Wheat. I also use locally grown medium sized tomatoes from the farmers’ market whenever I can."

Healthy Sandwich

"Mashing avocado isn't just for guacamole, it's also a good idea to use as a healthy alternative to butter or margerine. I think there is something in this sandwich for everyone, so don't be turned of that it's healthy or that it applies towards a vegan lifestyle. This recipe easily doubles if you want seconds or are making this for one other person."

Buffalo Chicken Wrap in a Snap

"This is an easy summer or anytime wrap sandwich to put together. An easy lunch for a warm summer day would be an apple, this sandwich and an iced tea/water."

Grilled Peanut Butter and Jelly Sandwich

"This is a sandwich that my Dh used to make when he was a kid. Crunchy, gooey and sweet, how can you go wrong. If you have a good nonstick skillet you can skip the butter and just brown it in the dry pan."

Lunchbox Hummus Vegetable Sandwich

"A grown up way of doing a healthy sandwich ! The Tapenade (olive spread) is optional . Enjoy ---"

Italian Saucy Sausage Sub

"Yet again another carnival favorite! Sausage and tomato sauce--you just can't beat that!"

Cheater's Chicken Noodle Soup

"I fall back on this recipe when I need some chicken noodle soup prepared in under 30 minutes. I prefer to broil my chicken tenders about 6 minutes per side or until juices run clear. This produces the moistest, tenderest chicken, in my opinion. I serve it with Recipe #96447."

Ground Chicken Ranch Burger

"I don't remember where I got this recipe but I make the patties ahead and freeze them. They can be cooked frozen on the grill. Serve on crusty rolls with your favorite condiments. Can also use ground turkey but not even close to as tasty as the chicken. No other seasoning is needed other than the ranch dressing mix."

Snack Stackers

"Nothing fancy here.... Our 5 year old loves those Snackables, so I make my own rendition for his snack time at kindergarten. I like it better because I get to choose healthier options like real cheese and organic meats. I use the low sodium crackers or the whole wheat ones."

Yummy Grilled Tuna and Cheese Sandwiches

"Very simple but, great to take to work. Something anybody could cook."

Mushroom Quesadilla

"This recipe makes a tasty lunch or have it as part of a traditional Mexican meal. I like using Corn Tortillas but the whole wheat are tasty too.Serve with your favorite Salsa and a green salad The recipe is from the column "The Chopping Block" by Philomena Corradeno, tweaked by Bergy"

Boston Fenway Franks

"I can't believe no one has posted a recipe for these. I grew up enjoying eating these as much as I enjoyed watching the game. In my opinion, this is the only way to eat a hot dog... Go Red Sox!"

Apple-Cheddar Panini

"A tasty sandwich and fun to make and eat! Adapted from the US Apple Consumers Association."
