Andrew Purcell
Too busy to cook during the week? Instead of relying on take-out, prep one of these recipes ahead of time and you'll have a healthy dinner at the ready when you come home.
Always a crowd-pleaser, this lean protein lends itself to a wide array of make-ahead meals.
Warm and filling for a chilly weeknight. Make soup in large batches and freeze.
Whole grains can make a hearty meal. The extra fiber makes them super-satisfying.
Red meat can be part of healthy diet in these sensible versions of lasagna and stew.
Save room for dessert! These sweet treats will keep well when made a few days in advance.
