As much as we love indulging in a wholesome dinner during the workweek, sometimes cooking feels nearly impossible. But a fair trade to ordering (again) is trying a recipe that doesn’t require a massive chunk of time or energy. Enter one-pan skillet dinners, our latest obsession. Not only do they require much less time than, er, standard recipes, but the cleanup is also much less extensive.
We searched the internet and came up with ten delicious one-pan skillet recipes you’ll love, including options for vegans, vegetarians, and meat-eaters alike. Check them out ahead.
