I truly enjoy cooking, but some nights making dinner from scratch is not an option. Instead achieving success at dinnertime hinges on getting the meal on the table fast without turning to take-out.
Recently I’ve discovered a handful of shortcuts that not only save time but also elevate everyday meals. Spicy beef tacos? Tasty enchiladas with fire-roasted tomatillos? Toasted coconut rice with shrimp? Add these to your weekly menu with ease.
Here are a few new time-saving pantry staples to add to your shopping list for easy homemade meals:
