Weeknight Meals

Black Bass with Warm Rosemary-Olive Vinaigrette

This elegant fish dinner comes together in just 15 minutes.

Instant-Pot Italian Chickpea Stew With Pesto

Chickpeas are the basis for this savory Italian stew, which gets an extra kick from a spoonful of intensely flavored pesto at serving time.

Instant-Pot Red Chicken Enchiladas

These pressure cooker enchiladas are all about the tortillas and the ancho chile sauce. Shredded chicken and cheese round out the Mexican-American favorite.

Instant-Pot Cowboy Chili

You’ll never miss the beans with this “stick to your ribs,” paleo, grass-fed ground beef–and–sausage version of the hearty Southwestern stew.

Pressure-Cooker Mini Meatballs With Radiatori

Radiatori are small, crunched pieces of pasta that look like old- fashioned steam radiators. They’ll stay firm in this quick meal, offering good texture against the soft meatballs.

Instant-Pot Vietnamese Chicken Soup

Get the richly flavored comforting broth of traditional pho in half the time when you use your Instant Pot.

Instant-Pot Vegan Cauliflower Queso

Cauliflower is a magical vegetable. It’s tasty on its own, but it can transform into oil-free creamy sauces and even replace meat. In this recipe, it’s the base for a creamy, cheesy take on queso dip. This is great on chips but even better on top of burritos and enchiladas. Best of all, you can get the pickiest of eaters to eat their veggies this way.

Royal Chicken Cooked in Yogurt

An elegant dish that may be served to the family or at a grand party. Rice is the ideal accompaniment.

Butternut Squash and Green Beans in a Coconut-Milk Curry

This is a South Indian–inspired sweet, mild curry. Serve it with steamed white rice and a tangy fruit chutney like cranberry or mango for a perfect rainy day meal. The recipe calls for a rather small quantity of butternut squash, so you may want to reserve the rest for another recipe.

Creamy Mashed Cauliflower "Potatoes"

Try this creamy cauliflower purée instead of mashed potatoes—it's more nutritious, lower-carb, and just as delicious.

Cold Sesame Noodles With Broccoli and Kale

Instead of deep-frying the broccoli in this sesame noodles recipe, we used a high-heat roasting method.

Curried Cauliflower with Chickpeas

A warming stew of quick-cooking lentils, pearled couscous, and canned chickpeas topped with tangy lime yogurt, crunchy sliced almonds, and fresh herbs.

Roasted Garlic Herb Sauce

This sauce—developed for our #cook90 initiative—is a kitchen workhorse. Use it to marinate fish, season rice, top a pizza, stir into scrambled eggs, or to add a final punch of flavor to a soup.

Grain Bowl with Spiced Vegetables and Curried Yogurt

No squash? No problem. This rice bowl—which was developed for our #cook90 initiative—can be made with all sorts of roasted vegetables (and, for that matter, any kind of grain).

Braised Chicken Thighs With Squash and Mustard Greens

Don’t have an acorn squash for this chicken thighs recipe? Use butternut. Not into mustard greens? Use kale, Swiss chard, or spinach.

Root Vegetable Zoodle Soup With Bacon and Basil Oil

First of all, zoodle is a made-up word for vegetables that have been cut to look like noodles. Make this recipe vegetarian by substituting 8 oz. fresh shiitake mushrooms in place of the bacon, leaving out the anchovies, and using a vegetable stock or water.

Green Shakshuka

Coddle eggs in a warming, cumin-spiced Swiss chard braise to start the new year with plenty of healthful, fortifying greens.

Basic Crepes

Classic recipe. Superior flavor. Flawless brunch.

Pico de Gallo Verde

The lime juice and oil will keep the avocado from turning brown, but it’s a good idea to make this pico de gallo recipe right before you serve it.

Cheese Fondue With Beer and Bourbon

Ah, Babybel cheese, the fancy French chef’s secret weapon for fondue—it keeps the molten mixture from separating, and its unassuming flavor lets the Gruyère shine.
