Cooking time: 30 minView recipe >> Save to recipe boxTips to prepare easy dinners at home
Here are a couple of tips to help you build a better dinner every night of the week:
- Start with a protein. As the foundation of your dinner, proteins provide the building blocks for a nourishing meal. Chicken, beef, and fish are great options but consider vegetarian protein sources like beans, eggs, and tofu.
- Include vegetables. Veggies provide lots of vitamins, minerals, and fiber to your dinner plate. Roast, sauté, and steam vegetables for easy preparation and maximum flavor. Use a variety of colors for a more exciting meal.
- Add flavor with herbs and spices. Fresh herbs and spices can instantly upgrade a boring dinner. Try new combinations, and don’t be afraid to experiment.
- Consider a starch. Adding a starchy side dish, such as potatoes, rice, quinoa, couscous, or noodles, can make dinner more filling.
- Don’t forget about dairy. Dairy products such as cheese, milk, and yogurt can add flavor and creaminess to a dinner. Consider using low-fat options to make it healthier.
- Serve with a fresh salad. A fresh salad is a great way to add color and crunch to your dinner plate. Be creative with your ingredients, and add a vinaigrette.
