Stephanie Allen is a veteran caterer and recipe whiz. Her coauthor, Tina Kuna, has an equally impressive background in management. Together these founders of the Dream Dinners franchise have created a meal philosophy that makes sense to today's harried parents. The strategy is simple: Scoop or pour ingredients into baking pans or plastic bags, then store the uncooked dishes in the freezer until you need them. Then you can choose between preparing just one meal and preparing three meals; using one and freezing the other two. Each of the recipes in Dream Dinners enables you to make the choice. In addition, Allen and Kuna provide a wealth of timesaving shopping tips and cooking pointers. A quick step toward a family meal.
