Kitchen answer
What are easy dinner ideas for tonight?
Stir-fry, fried rice, pasta with a pantry sauce, sheet-pan chicken and vegetables, quesadillas, soup, or a frittata — all under 30 minutes.
What else to know
- Sheet-pan dinners give you protein and vegetables with one pan to wash.
- Keep pasta, canned tomatoes, rice, eggs, and frozen vegetables stocked for no-shopping nights.
- A simple sauce — garlic, fat, acid, salt — turns plain ingredients into a real meal.
