Weekdays can be hectic enough as it is. For those rushing between jobs, maneuvering traffic to be on time for school/nursery pickups then run home and make dinner- it can be a bit much. So let’s get the “what should we cook today?” thoughts out of the way with these family friendly 30 minute recipes for busy weekdays. Not sure what to make for International women’s day perhaps? Let’s hope some of these quick recipes below will inspire you.
Fusilli With a Creamy Mushroom Sauce
With a little spunk from the nutty parmesan and black pepper, this creamy mushroom sauce is brilliant for those cold winter nights and more!
Healthy Broccoli Stem Salad With Tuna
A quick and simple salad made with broccoli stir-fried in garlic-infused olive oil finished with a squeeze of lemon. Tossed with tuna chunks, a sprinkle of chili flakes (optional), and a drizzle of olive oil and balsamic glaze.
Hearty, Family-Friendly Oven-Baked Gnocchi with Tomato & Mozzarella
Pillowy soft oven-baked gnocchi stirred through basil-infused tomato sauce, Parmigiano Reggiano, and fresh milky mozzarella. Quick, easy & family-friendly.
Low-Calorie Spaghetti with Anchovy
Ready in 15 minutes? Oh yes! Spaghetti made with anchovies, olive oil with a hint of garlic, just enough chili to tease, finished with a sprinkle of refreshing lemon zest to balance it all. And just like that, a simple, low-calorie pasta recipe that you can enjoy with minimal guilt.
Tender Chipotle Chicken Thighs
Chicken thighs marinated in smoky spices, oven-roasted, and tucked into pitta bread with crunchy iceberg lettuce, red onion, and a creamy smoky sauce. If you have time you can also prepare some homemade pitta.
Farfalle with Pancetta and Peas
Fried pancetta and peas finished with a generous heap of Parmigiano Reggiano. One of the quickest pasta recipes, ready in 15 minutes- need I say more to tempt you?
Pasta with a Spicy Tuna Sauce
This recipe is a good excuse to ditch the tuna salad and opt for something warm. If pasta is a favorite and chili a preference then this is a must try!
