Rat-Race Recipes

These recipes are designed for the overloaded reporter who hasn’t the time, let alone the desire, to slave away in the kitchen after driving all over God’s creation for a job, fighting the traffic to and from the courthouse, or just staying comfy in our offices of our homes scoping/proofing/stressing out over whatever.
