Any type of medium white beans work for this one-pot dinner. Just make sure to enjoy it with a side of country-style bread for soaking up the lemony, herb-packed sauce.
Carne Asada Cheese Fries
Meet the love child of cheese fries and nachos: crispy, seasoned fries loaded with skirt steak and silky cheese sauce.
3-Ingredient Microwave Cheese Sauce
This velvety-smooth sauce uses real cheddar (not the processed stuff) and comes together in less than 10 minutes. Serve as is with chips, fries, or chili dogs, or transform it into the best queso you've ever had (see below for more on that). Pro tip: Skip the aged cheddar from the fancy cheese counter—the sauce will be even creamier with a block of no-frills cheddar from the dairy aisle of the supermarket.
Creamy Pinto Bean Dip
Serve this lightly spiced, last-minute bean dip with tortilla chips and watch it disappear before half-time.

Here, fresh shrimp gets gently poached in herb-laced coconut milk. The spicing is subtle, so as not to obstruct the milk’s sweet flavor.
Cumin-Scented Potatoes With Tomatoes
Cumin and turmeric give this 30-minute vegetarian stew smoky, warming flavor and vibrant, soul-satisfying color.

This one-pot meal is herby, sweet, and garlicky all at once. To add more green, throw in a handful of arugula or spinach at the end; for more garlic, pair it with garlic toast.
Spinach-Artichoke Flatbread Pizzas
Using flatbread as the foundation for these pizzas ensures a crispy crust that you can feel good about devouring. In this recipe, I finish the pizzas with a balsamic reduction: Balsamic vinegar cooked down to a sweet, gooey glaze to drizzle over your flatbread toppings. It’s like the “icing on the pizza”!
