Easy Winter Weeknight Meals

For many people, a great deal of time is spent in the kitchen in December. Between baking seasonal treats and prepping for holiday dinner, which can begin weeks in advance, there is often little time left for prioritizing healthy meals. That’s where these recipes come in.

The three nutritious, meal-prep-friendly recipes below are perfect for simplifying your dinners this month, so you can spend more time enjoying yourself!

This hearty, veggie-based grain salad is full of color and texture, and it can help you make the most of the delicious flavors of the season.

There’s no question that fried rice is a delicious takeout staple, but it’s also not the healthiest option. Make your own version at home with farro, a nutrient-dense whole grain, in place of the rice.

Brussels sprouts are a popular holiday side, but they can also make for the perfect base for a winter salad, as is the case in this healthier take on the classic Caesar.
