Shakshuka with Grains & Greens

Slow-Baked Roasted Broccoli Frittata
Creamy eggs meet caramelized veggies in this Slow-Baked Roasted Broccoli Frittata for a flavor-packed meatless meal that satisfies any time of day!

One Pot Stovetop Chicken & Rice

Pasta with Sausage and Shortcut Broccoli Pesto
Thanks to a somewhat unconventional method of preparation, a generous serving of broccoli goes almost undetected in this filling, flavorful meal that is ready in about 20 minutes. “Try it.

So I decided to take inspiration from a party staple–cheesy, gooey, baked…
