Food & Cooking

It's one of our most popular recipes and for good reason. This is our original one-pot pasta recipe, inspired by a dish one of our food editors ate in Puglia, Italy. All the ingredients cook together in a straight-sided skillet, you don’t even need to boil water first—and it's on the table in just 20 minutes.

While we love bulgur in a traditional tabbouleh, this high-fiber, quick-cooking grain can do so much more. Try it in our California-Style Veggie Burgers or serve it as a tasty, healthy side dish with dinner tonight.

From one-pan pasta to pan-seared steak, these dinner recipes come together in a flash.

Casseroles are perfect one-dish meals and can be weeknight lifesavers—but not if you're spending an hour or more assembling them as the clock ticks closer to dinnertime. That's why we love the casseroles in this collection, which can all be made in advance and then popped into the oven (perhaps with a quick topping added first) when you're ready to eat. It's a very simple way to make a busy weeknight feel much calmer. Be sure to read through the recipe fully before you make it, which will let you know at what point you can stop, cover the casserole, and refrigerate or freeze it before proceeding. And it's a good rule of thumb to bring any casserole up to room temperature (or close to it) before putting it into the oven. After that, all that's left to do is sit back, relax, and dig in (and congratulate yourself on your fantastic foresight!). 

From creamy, cheesy sauces to classics like spaghetti and meatballs, your whole family will devour these pasta dinners.
