15. Spring Orzo Salad with Arugula, Asparagus, and Pine Nuts

I like to think of this salad as a triple threat because of its three A’s:

  • Asparagus: full of anti-inflammatory properties
  • Arugula: great for bone-health and immunity
  • Artichoke hearts: aid in digestion

Because of this triple-threat (as I call it), delicious taste, and easy instructions, I’d like to give Rachel Cooks a solid A+ for this dinner recipe!

16. Easy Weeknight Chicken Soup

Although chicken soup sometimes hits the spot even when you’re not sick, it will always be the ultimate go-to for when you or a family member is feeling under the weather. Thanks to this recipe by Brooklyn Supper, you can whip up an easy dinner and fuel your body with nutrients to help you beat that cold!

17. Greek Stuffed Peppers with Tzatziki Sauce

SkinnyMs has done it again, folks! We’ve created yet another easy dinner recipe that tastes like it took hours to cook, but really didn’t! It’s, therefore, the best kind of dinner recipe. You really don’t need any culinary talent to be able to make this delicious dish of ours. All you really need to know how to do is stir ingredients together and, well, turn on your oven! It’s become a go-to weeknight meal for me.

18. Instant Pot Pho

Damn Delicious has made it pretty darn easy to make a pretty darn delicious restaurant-quality pho dinner dish. After trying this recipe, you’re sure to find yourself enjoying a bowl of pho at home more often than enjoying a bowl out at a restaurant!

19. Grilled Vegetable and Cheese Quesadillas with Mango Salsa

These deliciously healthy quesadillas by Half Baked Harvest are ready and on the table in just 30 minutes! Plus, they are loaded with perfectly grilled veggies, such as peppers, corn, and zucchini and filled with perfectly melted cheeses, such as pepper jack and cheddar. Oh, and don’t even get me started on the mango salsa! This easy dinner will please the entire family!

Don’t believe me? Listen to this: my mom swore she didn’t like quesadillas. I made these for myself one night when I was staying over my parents’ house, and BOOM. Within minutes, she was in the kitchen, eating right off of my plate!

20. Easy Skillet Vegetable Lasagna

Just when you gave up on being able to make delicious homemade lasagna like your grandmother, here I am with this insanely easy and delicious lasagna recipe by Two Peas and Their Pod. It even adds a nice, healthy twist to the classic dinner dish by throwing in some zucchini, tomatoes, and mushrooms. You’re sure to be impressed by how simple this recipe is, and your family is sure to be impressed with your cooking!

21. Slow Cooker Stuffed Cabbage Rolls

Why not end this delicious list with a SkinnyMs recipe that requires very little work? Our Slow Cooker Stuffed Cabbage Rolls are really just your traditional stuffed cabbage rolls made healthier. Instead of beef, we use lean, ground turkey. This substitution creates a recipe that’s lower in fat and calories, but still high in protein and flavor.

Oh, and another difference between the traditional stuffed cabbage rolls that you’re probably used to eating and our SkinnyMs version is the level of difficulty. Instead of steaming or baking the rolls, we just throw them into the slow cooker and let that do all the work! Talk about delicious and easy!

You now have 21 easy and delicious dinner recipes to help you get through the week and trick your family into thinking that you’ve slaved for hours in the kitchen! It’s just up to you to put these recipes to use and healthify your household in the simplest ways possible.
