These recipes cover a variety of tastes and cooking methods: hearty soups, skillet dinners, sheet-pan meals, sandwiches, salads, and sweet treats. Here are a few ways to get the most out of this plan:
- Choose two mains to rotate midweek so leftovers make a second meal with minimal effort.
- Pair the Perfect Broccoli Salad or Oven-Roasted Veggie Risotto with any of the mains for a balanced plate.
- Use sheet-pan meals for hands-off cooking nights — they’re great for busy evenings.
- Save the cookies or fudge for a cozy weekend dessert or a treat to share with neighbors and friends.
