Daphne Metaxas Hartwig, two-time winner of the R.T. French Tastemaker Award, has designed recipes for delicious meals that are preassembled but not yet cooked. Once prepared, the meals simply wait in your refrigerator to be cooked and served at your convenience.

Also included are portable meals for eating on the run and cold dishes served straight from refrigerator to plate.
