I am always trying to figure out good quick things to make for dinner on weeknights. After work I often don’t have time to do something elaborate but I don’t want to eat unhealthy things either. There are some general foods that I always keep on hand which I am slowly profiling in my Kitchen Essentials Series which are a great base for a lot of my weeknight eating. I am also always trying to think of what foods I can make that I can turn the leftovers into something nice for lunch the next day.
So take a quick peek into some of the weeknight meals I have been making these past few months and maybe they can help you come up with some ideas for your own weeknight dinners.
Grilled hearts of romaine, dried fig, blue cheese, with a balsamic vinaigrette
