5 Ingredient Cooking Classes at Lenore Nolan-Ryan Cooking School

I must admit, some of my favorites recipes are those that are quick with just a few ingredients. While slaving away in the kitchen is great on occasion, I usually don’t have the time for it, nor do I have an entire pantry full of random ingredients. While I’m sifting through new recipes, when 2 sound equally enticing, the one with just 5 ingredients or so will be the one to get the star next to it.
