Quick Dinner Recipe from Author Jessica Nelson

Since Author Jessica Nelson is visiting Making Home Work this week, I asked her to share a favorite recipe. She came back with a rather interesting response. Enjoy!

*****

"My favorite recipe involves a tablespoon of peanut butter, a cup of chocolate chips, a spoon, a bowl, and a microwave. *wink*

But…for dinner, fresh broccoli with ranch dressing and cheese quesadillas works well. Put some cheese, any kind, in a soft flour tortilla. Fold it over and melt it in the microwave. Tada, a quesadilla!"

*****

Well, that's what I call a simple dinner recipe. And look at that, Jessica even included dessert! If you haven't stopped by the interview with Jessica Nelson, be sure to do so. She's giving away a copy of her novel, Love on the Range, to one lucky commenter. You have until midnight on Saturday to enter. In the meantime, here's a little more about author Jessica Nelson:

Jessica Nelson, in keeping with her romantic inclinations, married two days after she graduated high school. She believes romance happens every day, and thinks the greatest, most intense romance comes from a God who woos people to himself with passionate tenderness. When Jessica is not chasing her three beautiful, wild little boys around the living room, she can be found staring into space as she plots her next story. Or she might be daydreaming about a raspberry mocha from Starbucks. Or thinking about what kind of chocolate she should have for dinner that night. She could be thinking of any number of things, really. One thing is for certain, she is blessed with a wonderful family and a lovely life.

  1. Jessica, I must say that the quesadilla recipe sounds MUCH better than that peanut butter stuff, lol, not a big fan of the peanut butter I only eat it rarely.

    On a much better note the book sounds GREAT!

    1. You know, I'm not such a big fan of the PB either, but my husband LOVES it. As in he eats it out of the jar. And my two year old has adopted the habit. :-)

  3. PB & Chocolate--Yum-O! I love shrimp quesadillas, but I'm definitely going to try the one with broccoli.

    1. Not sure I'm adventurous enough to try the broccoli deal, but kudos to you for trying, Loretta!
