It’s a simple dinner the whole family will love.

Mix it up with different flavors of hummus and different types of vegetables depending on your mood.

This satisfying stew comes together in a snap.

A fast pan sauce gets life from zesty lemon juice, warm crushed red pepper and herby parsley.

Veggie & Hummus Sandwich

Serve with a slice of whole-wheat baguette to swipe up every last drop of sauce.

Charring the veggies in a cast-iron skillet adds depth of flavor.

Eggs are the base of the creamy sauce.

They don’t get fully cooked, so use pasteurized-in-the-shell eggs if you prefer.

Pack these ahead to keep on hand for easy meal-prep lunches or dinners on busy nights.

Slow-Cooker Chicken White Bean Stew

Here, we combine it with avocados in an easy no-cook meal.

In other words, they’re basically the ultimate easy weeknight dinner.

Feel free to add additional vegetables and swap the shrimp for chicken, steak, tofu or edamame.
