Weeknight meals do not have to be complicated to work.

Consistency in the kitchen often comes down to having a simple system rather than constantly trying new recipes. When meals are easy to repeat and adjust, it helps reduce decision fatigue at the end of a long day.

A few ways to simplify:
🍳 Keep go-to meals in rotation to reduce planning stress
🛒 Use overlapping ingredients to save time and money
⏱️ Prep where you can, even if it is just one small step
🥘 Focus on simple combinations, not complexity
🍲 One-pan meals make clean-up easier

What is your go-to weeknight meal?
