Breakfast Burritos

Breakfast burritos make great portable breakfasts for those on-the-go mornings where you need something filling and nutritious fast. They can be filled with just about anything; here, we used classic fillings like bacon, Cheddar, hash browns, and eggs. In only 30 minutes, you can have four delicious breakfast burritos in hands and be out the door.

Italian Salad with Basil-Parsley Vinaigrette

Fresh and herbaceous, this basil-parsley vinaigrette is so good you may want to double it to drizzle over salads all week long.

Jasmine Rice & Broccoli

Fragrant jasmine rice makes a great accompaniment to saucy Asian dishes. The flavor is neutral enough to complement just about any recipe. Plus, with chopped steamed broccoli added in, you'll get an extra dose of veggies with dinner!

Fennel & Arugula Salad with Oranges & Red Onion

A refreshing salad with fennel, oranges, and red onion is the ideal accompaniment to the hearty casserole, like this Greek Penne Pastitsio.

Oysters on the Half Shell with Green Apple Mignonette

Oysters are traditional New Year's fare in France. These oysters are shucked, then served with a tart mignonette sauce with a twist. The classic version is made with shallots, vinegar, and black pepper, but we added green apple for sweet-tart flavor and a pop of color. So celebrate like the French and try these oysters on the half shell this year.

Spinach Salad with Grapefruit & Fennel

This fennel and pink grapefruit salad makes a great side dish for a soul-satisfying meal. Sautéing the fennel softens the anise flavor, making it soft and sweet. We pair this with our Slow-Cooker Deep-Dish Pizza — the tang of the grapefruit cuts through the richness of the pizza.

Crisp Italian Salad with Creamy Parmesan Dressing

This salad is all about texture and flavor — crisp romaine is a refreshing base to this side salad. Juicy cherry tomatoes, salty olives, and, of course, zesty pepperoncinis provide a slightly acidic, tart bite to contrast anything rich or long-cooked. A creamy Parmesan dressing completes this into the perfect Italian salad.

Quick Baked Chicken Parmesan

Meals just come together quicker when you can work on more than one component at a time. And that’s the case with this chicken Parmesan. While the pasta cooks, bread the cutlets. While the cutlets roast, cook the tomato sauce. Before you know it, this hearty Italian meal will be ready to take to the table.

Balsamella

One of the classic five mother sauces, balsamella is the Italian name for béchamel. The basis for many recipes, from mac and cheese to soufflés, this is a recipe to commit to memory.

Cinnamon-Roasted Carrot & Arugula Salad with Orange Vinaigrette

Cut the richness of the Shrimp Bisque with a gussied-up salad of roasted carrots and arugula in a tangy orange vinaigrette. Roasting the carrots with vanilla, honey, and cinnamon enhances their natural sweetness. The carrots need not be served hot — make them before company arrives and serve them at room temperature.

Taco Chip Salad with Lime Vinaigrette

This taco-style salad is tangy, crisp, and great for cutting the richness of this Taco Grilled Cheese. To make this an entrée salad, just top with the taco filling instead of making the grilled cheese.

Roasted Chicken Thighs with Croutons & Veggies

When you can toss everything — chicken, croutons, and veggies — on a baking sheet and let the flavors meld, you know you’ve got a winning one-pan dinner.
