Supper Swap

Cook only one night a week. We'll show you how.

"The co-op meals usually consist of a main dish, vegetable, and starch. Sometimes we include dessert," explains Susan Franco of Atlanta, who, along with a couple of friends, formed the Supper Sisters two years ago. In addition to saving money, Susan believes the co-op has allowed her family to consistently eat a wider variety of foods.

"Learning to cook for 10 to 15 people took some getting used to," Susan remembers. "However, I picked recipes I could handle and that easily doubled (such as the ones featured here). In no time at all, my confidence grew, and my time spent in the kitchen dropped dramatically."

All of these recipes are from readers, many of whom use them in their own co-ops. We've also included handy tips on starting a co-op, as well as reheating instructions and serving suggestions.
