Where can I find a site with good recipes?

I am looking for something very specific: a site with low cost, quick fix meals (limited budget), for about two people. Also a site with variety. It seems like every where I look, the recipes are a little too involved, so I am looking for a site that has just general ingredients that I can expand on. The end result is, I am looking to get away from fast-food/microwave, but don't have a lot of money or cooking skills (I can follow a recipe to a ';T'; though).Thanks for the help!Where can I find a site with good recipes?
Here are some sites I love!!!





Crisco

Betty Crocker

Check out the Bisquik recipes.

Good luck!!!Where can I find a site with good recipes?
Besides the already mentioned allrecipes.com and cooks.com, there is foodtv.com, recipezaar.com, and google.com is also a great place to search for a specific recipe. Oh, and if you want budget-friendly recipes, try miserlymoms.com. About halfway down the first page, there is a link for frugal recipes. Good luck.
I like easy recipes too. Here is one of the better websites on the internet:

If possible, buy a small microwave and a crock pot. Be sure to read the booklets that come with both.





1. 1,160 Crock Pot recipes:

2. 2,600 Microwave recipes:


http://www.cooks.com/rec/search?q=microw鈥?/a>





This is one of the best cooking websites on the internet...see the categories on the left hand side of the screen. Put this in your ';Favorites'; for future use.





3. Don't forget the top brand frozen dinners at your local supermarket. Add canned veggies, canned fruit as side dishes.





And their sealed precooked meats such as pork chops, roasts, pot roasts with gravy, baked ham, meat loaf, chicken, etc. Read the directions and then pop into the microwave. Have a clerk help you find these in the cold section.
Here is a website that offers a lot of different recipes for people on a budget.





If you don't have a lot of time to cook, why not try crock pot/slow cooker meals. I've also listed a website for budget slow cooker receipes.
I really like Cookscountry.com. They publish a monthly magazine and also do a show on PBS. Some of their recipes may be more than what you want to start off with but the end results are very good. We made Smashed Potatoes and Corn Muffins last night from their latest issue. Very yummy!.





Some of their recipes call for store bought roast chicken or other premade ingredients, which make prep time faster.
