Even though I enjoy cooking and eating, I prefer to make mealtimes straightforward. This entails selecting recipes that are simple to follow and don't call for intricate cooking methods or apparently endless processes.

Here are a few tried-and-true easy dinner recipes that will enable you to swiftly prepare a nutritious meal.

Sweet potatoes stuffed

Sweet potatoes are a great source of fiber, potassium, vitamin C, and beta carotene.

Additionally, they go well with just about anything and are delicious. Because of this, they offer the ideal foundation for a substantial supper.

We make stuffed sweet potatoes at least once a week at my house. I roast a full sweet potato and then load it with cheese, chicken, beans, and sautéed vegetables.

You can choose from a wide range of taste combinations for this dish because it is so adaptable. Try one of the straightforward recipes listed here, or just wing it by piling your preferred ingredients on top of a baked sweet potato.

Grain jugs

In my kitchen, grain bowls are really popular. My husband and I frequently make this dish when we're seeking a savory yet quick-to-prepare meal because we appreciate how straightforward and flexible grain bowls are.

We utilize gluten-free grains like quinoa and brown rice because I adhere to a gluten-free diet. Farro, millet, and barley are all acceptable grains to use while making grain bowls.

A significant supply of fiber and other minerals, such as magnesium, is found in grains. Studies have revealed that eating a lot of grains may reduce your risk of developing heart disease, type 2 diabetes, colon cancer, and other illnesses.

A portion of cooked grains should be topped with cooked or raw vegetables, chicken, fried or hard-boiled eggs, grilled shrimp, or salmon as well as a protein source.

Then pour some olive oil and lemon juice on top, or keep it simple with a store-bought or home-made dressing.

If you keep hens as I do, you can use eggs for more than simply breakfast. Eggs are frequently the protein of choice for our quick and delectable entrees, including frittatas.

All you have to do to meet your fiber requirements is add a variety of your favorite vegetables since eggs already provide you with enough protein and healthy fat.

Asparagus, spinach, sweet potatoes, zucchini, onions, broccoli florets, mushrooms, and tomatoes are some of my top picks for frittata ingredients. To give your frittata more taste, you can also add items like cheese, herbs, spices, or pesto.

Even leftovers like salmon, chicken shredded, and potatoes can be added to your frittata.

I like to serve frittata with some fresh fruit or sliced avocado. You can have this satisfying supper at any time of day or night. You can whip up a frittata in under an hour because they are so easy to create.

Dinner salad

One of my go-to meals, especially when I don't feel like cooking, is a big, full salad.

The issue with most salads is that they are poorly put together, which causes you to feel hungry again quickly after finishing your meal. Make sure to incorporate enough of protein, good fats, and fiber while creating a hearty dinner salad.

A base of your preferred greens, such as spinach, mixed greens, arugula, kale, or romaine, is a good place to start. Increase the fiber content of your greens by adding a few more vegetables, such as peppers, cucumbers, carrots, broccoli, or red onions.

Pick a protein source next, such as grilled chicken, shrimp, salmon, or hard-boiled eggs. A fiber-rich carbohydrate item, like beans or roasted sweet potatoes, will increase the feeling of fullness even further.

For a crunchy texture, sprinkle roasted sunflower or pumpkin seeds over your creation before drizzling it with a healthy dressing like olive oil and balsamic vinegar or making your own green goddess dressing using this recipe.
