Your Next Weeknight Meal Plan (and Weekend Cooking Project!)

What to Cook Next Week No Images? Click here   After a busy day, the last thing you want to do is spend hours in the kitchen pulling dinner together. Luckily, we have a wealth of delicious weeknight meals that will have you in and out of the kitchen in one hour or less. Meet our weekly dinner plan: five easy dinners for five busy weeknights, all sent in advance so you can get your shopping done ahead of time. Cook along with us!   Your Week Ahead MONDAY Vegan Tofu and Herb Salad  Make this tofu- and veggie-filled salad your own by adding whatever fresh herbs you've got on hand—cilantro, basil, mint, or others. It's great on its own as a light meal, or served over sticky rice, which pairs perfectly with the salad's spicy dressing.    TUESDAY Broiled Salmon With Dilly Beans  Salmon and quick dilly beans make for a balanced dinner that's tender yet snappy. All it requires is one pan: Dry-fry the beans, cover them in a spicy brine, and top them with the salmon fillet, smeared with dill mayonnaise.  WEDNESDAY Pesto Pasta With Potatoes and Green Beans The green of spring makes its way to the table with this easy pesto pasta. To save time and cut down on cleanup, the potatoes, beans, and pasta are all cooked in the same pot before they're tossed with the pesto and some pasta water.  THURSDAY Vietnamese-Style Chicken Meatballs With Ginger and Mint Now for everyone's favorite: the meal that looks and tastes like it took more time than it did. These Vietnamese-inspired meatballs, composed of chicken, green chilies, scallions, and fresh ginger, are quick to cook and quicker to eat when wrapped in lettuce, doused in hot sauce, and topped with crispy shallots, carrots, pickles, and peppers.  FRIDAY Kimchi and Asparagus Stir-Fry With Spam and Fried Egg This asparagus, Spam, and kimchi stir-fry that blends Korean, Italian, and Spanish flavors is (like most things) delicious when finished off with an egg and a sprinkle of Parm on top. All you need is a skillet to stir-fry the asparagus, Spam, and kimchi, and another for the fried egg.     Your Weekend Project Ah, the weekend. Visions of time-consuming kitchen endeavors have been dancing in your head all week long, and finally you have the time to pursue them. But which one to choose? Let us guide your efforts with what we're taking on over the weekend.  Pure and Simple Slow-Cooked Boston Baked Beans Boston baked beans don't require much ingredient-wise, but what they do need is time. Beans and molasses are mixed with salt pork and then put into the oven for four hours—which just so happens to be the same amount of time it takes to begin binge-watching a new show.     Serious Eats 88 35th St Ste 602 Brooklyn, NY 11232-2017 Click Preferences to control which emails you receive from Serious Eats.

Not Just for Lonely Hearts: Korean Black Bean Noodles

Your Recipe of the Day No Images? Click here Jajangmyeon (Korean Black Bean Noodles) When Black Day arrives each year in South Korea, jajangmyeon, a wheat-noodle dish borrowed from Chinese immigrants to South Korea, is the carb-laden comfort food par excellence for singles looking to drown their sorrows. Though the components of the sauce vary widely—pork, zucchini, onions, and potatoes are all common ingredients—it's the hearty, glutamate-rich black bean sauce that furnishes the dish's satisfying umami flavor and its murky, somber tones.
