Preparation
Wondering what to make for dinner? Need some inspiration? Here’s our list of suggestions: dinner recipes that take less than an hour of mostly hands-off time. Yes, there will be pasta (or noodles!) and, yes, it will be delicious. We’ll be here every Friday with five weeknight dinners, including recipes, shopping lists, and everything you need to streamline your week ahead.
Are you feeling pressed for time? Making dinner on a weeknight can feel like a delicate balance of time, energy, and appetite. You’re so hungry you barely have energy to cook, or you got home so late you have even less time than usual for dinner prep. Be sure to save our stellar 30-minute-and-under recipes for those nights when every second counts. This week as we move into fall, we’ve got a quick-cooking pasta that uses canned salmon so it’s a great pantry dinner (sub whatever leafy green you have for the broccoli rabe), a 35-minute baked chicken sandwich, and 30-minute mini beef meatballs that are served in lettuce cups.
