Grains

Canned and Packaged Goods
1 jar capers
¼ cup gochujang 

Pantry Ingredients: kosher salt, extra-virgin olive oil, ground cumin, ground turmeric, garam masala, freshly ground black pepper, fine Himalayan pink salt, Dijon mustard, all-purpose flour, honey, red-pepper flakes, dried oregano, vegetable oil, whole nutmeg, hot sauce, baking powder, cayenne pepper, rice vinegar, tamari, sesame oil, black and white sesame seeds.

Monday: Cheesy Kale Farfalle Pasta

It’s the busiest day of the week, and you’d better believe that means we’re having a huge bowl of pasta. (Or two.) Lucky for us, this dish has only six ingredients and takes about half an hour to whip up.

Tuesday: Instant Pot Keto Indian Butter Chicken

This dish is light on carbs but tastes like a takeout favorite. And the best part of all? It’s made in the Instant Pot.

Wednesday: Pork Scallopini With Lemon, Capers And Radicchio

A low-maintenance meal that comes together in 20 minutes—and if you already have pantry staples on hand, you’ll need only five more ingredients to make it.

Thursday: Honey-mustard Chicken Bake

Savory and sweet, this ridiculously easy main is ready in an hour (but don’t worry, most of that is hands-off cooking time).

Friday: Cheater’s White Pizza With Béchamel Sauce

Some nights we want a healthy salad. This is not one of those nights. Store-bought naan is slathered with an easy-to-make sauce, then topped with four different types of cheese and toasted garlic.

Saturday: Chicken And Waffle Sandwiches

Ta-da, the meal you’ve been waiting all damn week to eat. We won’t tell if you have seconds.

Sunday: Clean-eating Bibimbap Bowls

Spicy, crunchy and satisfying, these healthy bowls are super easy to whip up on a whim. (And did we mention they’re vegan and gluten-free?) Pass the tamari.
