My family enjoys a meat-free meal once or twice a week. Making this soup in the slow cooker keeps the house smelling good for hours as it simmers. Its terrific with garlic bread.

Top bowls of soup with crunchy cheese toasts. Brush thin slicesof French bread lightly with olive oil. Place on a broiler pan and

Meatball-Stuffed Shells Jenny Bishoff Mountain Lake Park, MD

As a working mom with two little girls, Ive found this super-easy recipe is great for a quick dinner. The kids can help too!

12-oz. pkg. jumbo pasta shells,uncooked

28-oz. jar pasta sauce, divided

36 rozen Italian meatballs,thawed

2 c. shredded mozzarella cheese

Cook pasta according to package directions; drain and rinse in coldwater. Spread 1/2 cup pasta sauce in a greased 13x9 baking pan.

Tuck a meatball into each shell; arrange shells in pan. Top withremaining sauce; add cheese. Cover; bake at 350 degrees for 35 minutes. Uncover and bake 10 more minutes. Serves 6 to 8.

Nothing perks up the flavor of tomato sauce like fresh basil!Keep a pot of basil in the kitchen windowsill and just pinch off

a few leaves whenever theyre needed.

White Chicken Chili Mary Rose Kulczak Noblesville, IN

This hearty chili is delicious! Using a rotisserie chicken is a terrific shortcut and makes it extra flavorful.

beans, drained

2 c. deli roast chicken, cubed4-oz. can diced green chiles1 t. ground cuminsalt and pepper to tasteGarnish: sour cream, shredded

Cheddar cheese

In a large stockpot over medium heat, saut onion and garlic in oliveoil until softened. Stir in remaining ingredients except garnish. Bring toa low boil, stirring frequently. Reduce heat to low. Cover and simmer for about 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Top each bowl with adollop of sour cream and a sprinkle of cheese. Serves 4.

Crunchy toppings can really add fun and flavor to chili and soup.Some fun and tasty choices...fish-shaped crackers, bacon bits,

French fried onions, sunflower seeds and toasted nuts.

Applesauce Pulled Pork Melissa Rushing Rogersville, MO

My kids say this slow-cooker pulled pork is as good as what our local barbecue restaurant serves...or better! Its terrific for busy days. In the morning, just fill the crock, and when you arrive home, its waiting for you to enjoy!

3 to 4 lbs. country-style pork ribs, cut into 6 pieces

salt and pepper to taste1 c. cinnamon applesauce

18-oz. bottle barbecue sauceOptional: 6 sandwich buns, split

Season pork with salt and pepper; arrange in a large slow cooker.Spoon applesauce and barbecue sauce over pork. Cover and cook onlow setting for 8 hours, or until very tender. Pull pork apart with2 forks. Serve on sandwich buns, if desired. Makes 6 servings.

Mini versions of favorite hot sandwiches are oh-so appealing...diners with light appetites can take just one, while those with

heartier tastes can sample two or three. Try using small sandwichrolls or brown & serve dinner rolls instead of full-size buns.
