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 Spring Vegetable Salad With Poached Egg and Crispy Bread Crumbs Spring’s not over yet, which means we’re still loading up on the season’s bright green produce. And this salad of fava beans, peas, asparagus, and broccolini—all topped with a poached egg and buttery bread crumbs—is our favorite way to do just that.   TUESDAY Fried Soft-Shell Crab Sandwiches Don’t be deceived by their simplicity—these fried soft-shell crab sandwiches make a fine Tuesday-night treat. The crabs are coated in a light beer batter, fried, and then served in a toasted bun with lettuce, tomato, and mayo. WEDNESDAY Five-Minute Grilled Chicken Cutlets When you've hardly had time to think about dinner and realize you're hungry, these five-minute chicken cutlets are the meal to make. A quick marinade of rosemary, garlic, lemon juice, and olive oil is all you need to pack flavor into the meat before putting it on the grill.  THURSDAY Cheese-Free Sweet Potato "Quesadillas" These sweet potato quesadillas may not be filled in the most typical way, but they are delicious—and they just happen to be vegan. They're also a cinch to make: Flour tortillas are filled with a simple mixture of mashed roasted sweet potatoes, cilantro, jalapeños, and scallions.  FRIDAY Mini Grilled Gyro Burgers We bet you'll want more than a few of these mini beef and lamb burgers, so plan accordingly. Thanks to their small size, the patties cook in an instant. They're served with a dollop of tzatziki and sliced peperoncini, in toasted buns.     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.  Homemade Klondike Bars These DIY Klondike bars are filled with fluffy no-churn ice cream, enveloped in whisper-thin milk chocolate, and wrapped in tinfoil—for nostalgia's sake, of course. So tell us, what wouldn't you do for a homemade Klondike bar?     Serious Eats 88 35th St Ste 602 Brooklyn, NY 11232-2017 Click Preferences to control which emails you receive from Serious Eats.
