What kind of help do you use when it comes to making dinner?
Since the Sandra Lee post was so popular on this site, it got me thinking about fast food-type help in the kitchen. Sandra Lee is obviously a fan of cutting all kinds of corners and using bagged/canned/jarred help whenever she can. It's pretty impossible to have every meal be a gourmet feast, so I was just curious as to what kinds of shortcuts people take at dinner time. I love having bread at meals, especially when there's yummy juices to sop up, but baking fresh bread everyday is kind of hard. I often use those frozen rolls that require sitting out in a warm place to rise for a couple of hours. I also sometimes use jarred marinara sauce, though I usually add different veggies and meat. What shortcuts do you guys take when making a meal?
