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.
There’s a quick and colorful selection of meals to make this week. Start with the coziest of soups on Monday, then progress to a 25-minute chicken dinner on Tuesday that eats kind of like pizza sans the cheese (and with hummus). Get over hump day with meatballs that are both beefy and healthy, then scoot into Thursday for a one-pan pasta where cauliflower takes a central role (it’s also a 25-minute dinner, in case you’re counting). Round out the week with a sheet-pan dinner that’s both easy and healthy—if you didn’t think you could have a sheet-pan meal with delicate fish filets, this recipe will surprise and delight you.
