Ridiculously Easy Recipes to Make You Look Ridiculously Clever

These ridiculously easy recipes will make you look ridiculously clever! They come together easily and are crazy delicious.

Are you familiar with our ridiculously easy recipes? They are recipes that need certain characteristics to earn that label.

1. A recipe that takes minimal effort and minimal hands-on time to put together. (Resting, rising or chilling time is not taken into consideration.)
2. It’s also one that produces fabulous, super delicious results, ie, results that “appear” to have taken lots of time, talent, prowess and/or hard work.
3. Ridiculously easy recipes have to work well on those busy days when time is short and expectations are high.
4. And last, ridiculously easy recipes are perfect for entertaining, mostly because of the first two characteristics. They take the stress out of dinner parties and gatherings of families and/or friends and allow you more time to enjoy your guests. Bottom line? They are super simple, something anyone can do. (Shhhh! We’ll keep that part our secret.)
