I'm trying to get inspired to have new meals in my weekly line up. Generally, I make healthy stuff M-F after work and then make fancier, more extravagant stuff on the weekends. Anyhow, I don't need recipes per se, just dishes you like to cook that are quick and easy and that you can't get enough of.
Ever since I got an instant pot, I've been making soups like crazy cause its just so fast.
My healthy weeknight soup for 2-3 people, which constantly changes:
2 Large carrots
Beet extract, or shredded beetroot
Handful of frozen kale/spinach
Handful of frozen or fresh green beans
Handful of frozen peas
Small onion or shallot
1 Large tomato
Celery salt / thyme OR paprika/coriander/cumin
And if I'm feeling like it, a small amount of beef or chicken thigh.
1-3 cups of water, vegetables release a lot of water when they cook
Kinda like a modified borscht but without potatoes. I like to add some cornstarch to thicken it.
