"I teach a college humanities class one night a week and rely on quick recipes to make dinner for my family before I race out the door," writes Erin Mylroie of St. George, Utah. "This has been a favorite that everyone adores. To save even more time, I often buy chopped onion and bell peppers from the produce section."
