<![CDATA[Not exactly recipes, but fast and tasty]]>The market where I shop started carrying Chicken of the Sea Sardines.  They are only a buck a can on sale.  I like the ones in tomato sauce, lightly smoked and water.  The tomato sauce is my favorite.  The Louisiana hot sauce flavor is not hot and has a slight but funny aftertaste.  Just get the tomato sauce ones and add a couple drops of your favorite hot sauce.

so….I make my favorite toast and put the sardines on top.

Another thing I just discovered is Loretta Brand potato 'mixes.'  They come in Scalloped and Au Gratin potatoes.  Each box makes 5 one-half cup serviings and you only have to add 2 cups hot water, 1/2 cup milk and 2 Tbsp. butter or margarine.  They can be made on top of the stove or in the oven.  Although if you make them on the stove, I simmer them for about 1/2 hour and add about 1 3/4 cup water.  Unlike many prepared potato products, these have no aftertaste.  These too are on sale for $1.00 a box all the time.

And AMAZINGLY, each serving has only 218 mg. of sodium, slightly more if you add in the milk & butter.

So "cheers" to the no-cook crowd.
