Whether you're cooking for family, friends or just yourself, suppertime needs to be easy. If you're home alone and deserving a treat, simple spaghetti is the answer. If you have people coming over and arepressed for time - Spanish chicken with chorizo and potatoes is the work of moments, the leftovers turned into dreamy breakfast quesadillas. There's Nigella's no-fuss fruit tart and for evenings when you need speed, ease and restoration there's lemony salmon with cherry tomato couscous. And for those moments when cooking is beyond you, a chip kebab is the answer.

It's a long weekend of comfort cooking in Nigella's Kitchen where the food is delicious and the cooking is easy. The action starts on Friday night with a fast and fabulous supper of sauteed Scallops with ThaiScented Pea Puree, then it's Saturday lunch for the kids and Nigella's conjuring up an Italian classic, Pasta Alla Genovese, a double carb dish of spaghetti cooked with potatoes and a fabulous home made basil pesto. Then Nigella's cooking Sunday lunch for friends and family and serving meatloaf, America's all time top comfort food. It's her friend Ed's Mother's Meatloaf made with hard boiled eggs hidden inside and served in thick slices with Baked Potatoes drizzled in a divine Blue Cheese Dressing. And for dessert? Strawberry and Almond Crumble with cream - what else could it be.
