A quiche is always welcome, especially when it contains wonderful ingredients like this one. Wild rice might seem like a strange quiche addition, but it adds wonderful texture and a nutty taste. Serve this quiche with an easy green salad and a light dessert for a quick weeknight dinner.

• Wild Rice Quiche

Molly's Strawberry Fool
A super easy, fool-proof (despite the name) dessert that is beyond delicious and makes the most of spring's first strawberries.

For a nice break for your wallet in addition to your time in the kitchen, try making breakfast recipes for dinner. There's something so comforting about eating eggs, pancakes, or French toast at night. Get everybody into their jammies and eat dinner in front of the fireplace. While you're at it, get out some board games and make it a cozy family night. What a great way to start the weekend.

Soups are perfect for this strange time of year, when it can be 60 degrees one day and snowing the next. (Or is that just Minnesota?) These quick and easy soups are super quick because each uses five ingredients or less. My personal favorite is Tomato Tortellini Soup. Make it using chunky tomato soup instead of cream of tomato soup for even more texture and flavor. Serve any soup with an easy savory bread for a complete meal.
