My Go-To Food Recipes

I'm pretty lazy when it comes to cooking/shopping and I suck at multitasking in the kitchen. That said, I want to eat food that is both healthy and tasty. This is where I collect recipes that meet my criteria so I can view them easily without ads or clutter.

All of these recipes will assume you have a basic set of pots, pans, baking sheets, and cooking utensils. Any recipes that require specialized equipment or might otherwise be problematic will be marked with a warning up-front.

Savory

Baked Squash and Chickpeas
Beef Stew

Easiest if you have a giant bowl and pot.
Carrot Risotto

Grating carrots is tedious and time-consuming without a food processor.
Korean Meatballs
Mango Salsa
Red Lentil Curry
Spiced Quinoa
Spicy Tangy Roast Carrots

Sumac can be hard to find; try a Middle-Eastern market.
Sweet & Tangy Chicken

Works best if you have a pan that can fit 3 chicken breasts at once.
Tropical Pork Chops
White Chicken Chili

Requires a blender to purée beans; I use an immersion blender and a bowl.

Sweet

Tres Leches Cake

Requires a 9x13" pan, and an electric mixer unless you've got strong arms and crazy stamina.
