Most of these are regular fare at my house. Fast food may be convenient, but the cost, the fat and the e coli are not. Search for copycat recipes on any search engine for all your faves. There are even low fat copy cat recipes. great article, hope everyone will give cooking a try. Miss A

I tried the chicken fajita pizza, cost about $18 in ingredients and about 45 minutes to prepare. I think I'll go to Dominoes next time. =)

Great Post. Too bad there's no Debit Card Window for Fast Food since Banks now charge for withdrawals......I'm so hungry that cooking from the freezer is my hope at present...

Why do your recipes have to be so exotic. How about a recipe for simple guys that cook. Meat and potatoes...maybe talk about new ways to cook traditional dishes.

I will bet the take out tastes a lot better. You state it takes just as long...if not quicker to whip up one of these recipes???? If I leave work and make the call on my way home...I stop by on my way home...and then when I get home...it is ready. If I don't do that...and take your idea, then I have to leave work, stop by the grocery store, get to the house and then fire up the oven and or stove. Start cooking. Then have a mess in my kitchen and have to clean it all up. It doesn't taste as good. And then finally I have less time in the evening for myself to do what I want. Not such a grand idea if you like good tasting and quick foods so you have more of a day to yourself!!! Some of it sounds good for a saturday or sunday meal though.
