Dinner Tips & Tricks

Batch Cook Grains

Cook a big pot of rice, quinoa, or farro on the weekend. Having grains ready makes throwing together a quick dinner effortless.

Build Flavor in Layers

Saute aromatics (onion, garlic, ginger) first, toast spices, add umami (soy sauce, miso, nutritional yeast), and finish with acid (lemon, vinegar).

One-Pot Meals

Embrace one-pot cooking for easier cleanup. Curries, stews, and pasta dishes all work beautifully in a single pot or pan.

Prep Sauces Ahead

Make big batches of versatile sauces like marinara, peanut sauce, or tahini dressing. They transform simple ingredients into complete meals.
