Dairy Free
Sheet-Pan Chicken Meatballs and Charred Broccoli
This dinner comes together on a baking sheet, and the sauce will win over any choosy eater.
Chicken Soup with Caramelized Ginger
A feel-good classic with a new lease on life, this sinus-clearing broth starts with ginger softened in savory caramel. Soy sauce, garlic, and chiles bring even more flavor and a little bit of heat.
Corned Beef with Crispy Potatoes and Cabbage
This update of the classic corned beef dinner nixes boring, boiled sides in favor of extra-crispy roasted cabbage and potato wedges and a vibrant, seedy dressing.
Pineapple Shrimp Noodle Bowls
Caramelized pineapple and sautéed shrimp get tossed in a sweet, sour, and spicy sauce with lots of fresh basil. We like it spooned over rice noodles and topped with cucumbers, onions, and peanuts, but it’s also great with any grain.
Crispy Kimchi and Scallion Pancakes
These are wonderful both as an appetizer when entertaining or as a main with a side of greens.
Coconut Shrimp with Pineapple Herb Dipping Sauce
Serve baked, coconut-crusted shrimp with a bright dipping sauce for an appetizer that'll please a whole host of palates.
Matcha Almond Thumbprint Cookies
Gloss the tops of these egg- and dairy-free almond cookies with an earthy-sweet green tea frosting.
Coconut Curried Vegetable Stew
This hearty vegetarian stew comes together in under 30 minutes.
Chopped BLT Salad
Skip the bread and simply toss your favorite sandwich ingredients into a big bowl for a refreshing lunch with a savory, bacon-y crunch.
Big-Batch Freezer Pork Tenderloin Strips
Stash bags of these spice-rubbed pork tenderloin strips in your freezer to use to make family-friendly dinners.
Steak Sandwiches with Fennel Slaw
Fresh fennel—tossed in a sprightly cilantro salsa verde—adds crunch against thinly sliced steak and pillowy focaccia.
Pan-Roasted Steak with Crispy Broccoli
It’s fast, it’s easy, it’s totally repurposable. Making extra steak tonight means a stress-free dinner tomorrow, a little strategy we call nextovers.
Lemony Salmon and Spiced Chickpeas
This quick salmon dish, flavored with a garlicky za’atar dressing, proves that meals are better in bowl form. Add radishes, chickpeas, and arugula, then drizzle the dressing over it all.
Roasted Winter Squash with Kale Pipian
If you can find it, try making this green sauce with hoja santa, a robust aromatic Mexican herb—if not, any hardy green will work (we call for kale).
Sunny Side Burger with Salsa Verde
What’s better than a griddled burger with the crispiest exterior? One that comes sandwiched between a vibrant tomatillo salsa and topped with a runny fried egg.
Brussels Sprout Tacos with Spicy Peanut Butter
Cooked and raw brussels sprouts are matched with a rich umami dressing and a spicy nutty sauce in this surprising but winning taco.
Pickled Rice Tabbouleh
Pickle brine lends a distinctive tang to the rice, giving the whole dish a nice, lively jolt. This recipe can work with any kind of pickling liquid, even the ordinary stuff from a jar of pickles or cornichons (we tested it with a few kinds). If brown rice isn’t your thing, use another grain: Try barley, farro, or freekeh.
Black Lentil and Harissa-Roasted Veggie Bowl
We love the roasted sweet potatoes in this bowl, but any hardy vegetable would be just as delicious. Try delicata squash, cauliflower, or eggplant.
Barbecued Pork Fried Rice with Mushrooms and Extra Ginger
My fried rice axiom is this: always use a little more ginger than seems appropriate. This is especially true with this fried rice version, enriched with smoky pork and rich bites of sautéed mushrooms.
Crispy Scallop Salad
Shallow-fried scallops get extra crispy on the outside and super tender inside when double-dredged in an Old Bay–seasoned cornmeal mixture. Bonus: they’re gluten-free.
