Not questionable takeout, but homemade. It’s kind of essential.
And if this basically describes you, then here are ten easy dinners you probably need to try this week.

It’s baked pasta… with meat. Like how much easier and tastier could it get? I think this is essential and should be made, especially if you have a big family. Or if you just want to make it for yourself.

Honey Teriyaki Chicken
I love it when there’s a thick layer of tasty sauce to coat the meat, veggies, and rice, and this one looks so good. Also, with this recipe, there’s now no need to order takeout at your favoirte Japanese restaurant.
Oven Baked Nachos
It’s oven baked nachoes. This is the kind of dinner you make when you want to have a weekday movie night. It’s informal, it’s tasty, it’s comforting, and I think you need it.
Pesto Gnocchi
Pesto and gnocchi are two increidbly tasty ingredients, so putting them together kind of makes them an instant win. I would personally feel like I was eating at a fancy Italian restaurant but for half (or a quarter) of the cost + a shorter waiting time.
