Weekend time is family time. Spending time with spouse and kids is always a rejuvenating experience. However, all the fun that you were supposed to have with your family is spoiled when you hear the ringing doorbell and then find out that your friends have come.

Now that they have come to your house, you will have to be a great host and prepare something delicious for them. But, you must be thinking as to what great can be cooked in such a short period of time.

monica-avatar-1.jpgAuthor Bio: My name is Monica Henin and I’m a food enthusiast. I love cooking unique and healthy recipes because I believe cooking is an art in which there is a big room for improvisation. My areas of interest are healthy recipes and cooking tips because I want to make cooking fun and healthy. I have been writing a lot on food and kitchen gadgets for past many years. Cooking delicious food in a short period of time is something that I’ve always wanted to do, so I researched a lot about the ingredients that can be used to cook scrumptious delights in a matter of a few minutes.
