Busy families have neither the time nor energy to prepare an elaborate dinner, then do the dishes. And now more than ever, “easy” is the order of the day. Having a few one-dish dinner options may be just what’s in order.
Whether you prefer cooking in a cast-iron skillet, roast pan, or crockpot, one-dish dinners make life simpler in a number of ways. Combine a protein, starch, and some veggies to form a soup, stew, or casserole, and you have a nutritious, well-balanced meal.
Dishes such as these are a perfect way to recycle yesterday’s leftovers into a flavorful, budget-friendly meal for today. In addition, many one-dish dinners can be prepared in advance and stored in the refrigerator or freezer for times when you need a quick meal. And possibly the biggest plus of a one-dish dinner is the smaller pile of dirty dishes waiting for you after the meal is over.
