Hello! Mia here, jumping in for Emily. Always a pleasure to be with the Five Weeknight Dishes crew.
So: I love grocery shopping. When I travel, I don’t always hit the landmarks and must-sees. Instead, I’m beelining to supermarkets, open-air markets, specialty stores, convenience stores. My corner grocer has only two aisles, and on every visit I go up and down each one to see if there’s anything new, or anything discounted. “Oh, does this recipe need something we don’t have? I guess I’ll go get it,” I fake-exasperatedly say as I’m already walking out the door, tote bag on arm.
But maybe this isn’t you. It’s not always me, either, especially as we enter the part of the year when it’s much nicer to spend free time outdoors than under fluorescent lights. In that spirit, I’m passing you Krysten Chambrot’s excellent collection of recipes that have seven ingredients or fewer, and sharing some of my favorite fast, seven-items-or-fewer dishes below. (We’re not counting oil, salt or pepper.)
