Yes that's right a crockpot chicken tikka masala that doesn't require any browning meat, sautéing aromatics, or the extra step of pureeing sauce. Everything is simply added right into a slow cooker, tossed together, cooked through, then finished off with a fair amount of cream.

It is the simplest way to cook this savory Indian-British dish and the final result is a full flavored, perfectly impressive curry style dinner. Who doesn't love a dinner recipe that takes minimal effort but yields maximum flavor!

This near effortless dish simmers low and slow allowing all the flavors to meld and soak into the chicken, and its generous allotment of cooking time allows for all those spices to marry together in a overall unified flavor.

The key to a good slow cooker curry style dish like this is just to use plenty of spices, fresh aromatics (garlic, ginger and onion), and never forget the cream (it compliments the tomato beautifully). Serve it with basmati rice cooked in a rice cooker for continued ease, and pair with a side of steamed peas or green beans to include a veggie.

The Best No Bake Cheesecake!

My favorite no bake cheesecake recipe!

Why go the no bake route? Because you don't even have to turn on your oven during these hot summer months, and because this version is easier to make. No water bath required (like a traditional cheecake) and no tending to it, it just sets in the fridge.

I think you'll also love to switch things up for a change from the heavy and dense cheesecake to something with more of a light and airy with just enough body to it.

When you pair this sweet cream cheesecake with a fresh summery strawberry sauce or blueberry sauce you create the ultimate flavor pairing. You will truly be savoring each and every bite!

If you wanted to make it even easier you could use a can of blueberry, raspberry or cherry pie filling - but for the tastiest cheesecake bars possible I highly recommend making it fresh.

This simple, refreshing strawberry tiramisu is a chilled Italian inspired dessert that doesn't require any baking, and can even be made without any cooking if you opt to skip the step of concentrating the fruit juice.

It's made up of a base of store-bought lady fingers (which creates a major shortcut), and they are soaked in pomegranate juice for a bright pop of flavor and rich color. After that you get a layer of fresh juicy strawberries, and atop that is a billowy sweetened cream cheese and whipped cream layer for that indulgent cheesecake taste. These layers are repeated again for a total of six decadent, perfectly paired layers.

It's a simple dessert to prepare yet it creates a captivating, decadent finish to any meal and an indulgent treat worthy of any celebration.

This skillet seared chicken with creamy dijon sauce is richly flavorful, with a touch of gourmet. It's indeed an upgrade on otherwise bland and boring chicken breast. And the best part is it's made with a handful of staple ingredients you likely already have on hand.

Its simple dijon mustard infused sauce is something that you can use on other proteins like ham, pork or salmon, side vegetables such as asparagus, broccoli and potatoes, and breakfast dishes like eggs benedict and stratas. Basically you'll want to add to just about everything else in your fridge so you may as well double it up so you have extra.

Impress everyone with this creamy mustard sauce chicken, it may likely even become one of your favorite chicken dinners!

Want to Make a standard full size quiche? Use my recipe here.

Mini quiche are perfect for a weekend breakfast, a holiday brunch or a make ahead on the go breakfast. They are easy to make and brimming with enjoyable flavor thanks to the abundance of savory fillings.

While eggs may be pricey right now this breakfast recipe is a good way to stretch them and get more servings out of them (since you'll mix in cream and fillings rather than using whole eggs alone).

For me I think these will be a new Easter tradition, there's just something about quiche that's so fitting for the holiday.

You can adjust the fillings to suite your own personal taste and it's a good way to use up what you have on hand in the fridge (see ideas below).

Wondering what to pair with mini quiche? I recommend yogurt parfaits, breakfast potatoes or smashed potatoes, and a vibrant fruit salad.

Traditional angel food cake just got a sublime upgrade with chocolate in every bite. Homemade angel food cake has been a go-to dessert at our house but I've created this luxurious chocolate version I think you'll love even more!

I've always found most angel food cakes from the store are dry and stale, homemade angel food cake is anything but and the only way to go in my opinion.

It's easier to make than you'd think and it's the perfect finish to a spectacular dinner. It also makes a delectable celebratory cake for a birthday, or Valentines day of course.

Treat yourself this weekend, or make it for a friend or loved one. It's completely irresistible!

And don't toss those egg yolks, see all my recipes ideas below on various ways to use them.

Chicken Gravy with a Carton of Broth

This is a simple yet completely delicious diner style gravy that doesn't require any roasted chicken drippings. So you can make mashed potatoes with gravy anytime the cravings strike without having to cook a whole chicken. In fact we most often serve it with a store-bought rotisserie chicken for a quick dinner.

You'll just need a good chicken base and packaged chicken stock along with a few other everyday ingredients.

And the best part is that you can have it ready in under 15 minutes! Plus you'll have the option to make it a creamy gravy with extra richness by adding just a little bit of cream.

It's a comforting, cozy, humble recipe with rich chicken flavor in each bite. There's just so much simple goodness to anticipate for dinner with this easy, must have chicken gravy recipe!

Decadent lemon pie made with a crisp graham cracker crust, a sweet and tangy, cream cheese infused, fresh lemon filling, and it's garnished with dollops of fluffy and clouds whipped cream atop.

It is similar to a key lime pie but no eggs required. This pie is truly a lemon lovers delight!

Why You'll Love This Lemon Pie

No bake option: This simple to make pie can also become a no-bake treat if you opt to go the route of a no-bake crust.

Versatility: You can also swap the crust out for various other cookie bases such as using vanilla wafers, biscotti cookies or gingersnaps. You could also make and almond flour type crust.

Then for the filling you may also opt to use lime juice and zest in place of lemon.

Storage life: It keeps well in the fridge for several days and this lemon icebox pie can even be frozen.

Crave-Worthy Pasta with Pesto Cream Sauce

While the recipe itself doesn't have a typical pesto sauce in it, it brings the elements of pesto compiled together in a cooked pasta dish plus an addition of a gloriously creamy sauce.

I love a good pesto with a rich olive oil, but just think of a pesto made with silky cream instead. Once you taste this be wondering why you hadn't made it this way before.

You only need a few ingredients to make this freshly flavorful dish. Plan on a simple prep, and if you want to upgrade it with a protein to make it heartier feel free to add one right into the pasta or pair alongside it.

The BEST Milkshake Recipe!

Now that summer has arrived my family is obsessed with these strawberry milkshakes!

They couldn't be quicker and easier to make, they need just a few ingredients, and they are a shortcut semi-homemade dessert (since they use store-bought ice cream).

Not to mention they are great way to use up seasonal strawberries and you'll find them to be one of the most refreshing treats on a hot sunny day.

Simply put these are completely and utterly delicious in every way!

Possible Variations

You can make them with a variety of different ice creams or fruit, or even try them with different jam.

• Ice Cream Flavors: Try them with cheesecake ice cream, blueberry, raspberry or vanilla ice cream.
• Fruit: Make this shake with a triple berry blend (strawberries, raspberries and blueberries), or use just blueberries, or even try them with something like cherries or mangos.
• Milk/cream substitute: Instead of using both milk and cream use 3/4 cup half and half.
• Healthier milkshake: For a healthier option try using a no sugar ice cream, and use low fat milk or a low calorie dairy free milk like almond milk in place of regular milk and cream.
