During busy weeks, prioritizing eating well and getting full nutritious, satisfying, and tasty meals can feel like a burden. And on days when you come home after a busy day, there’s one very likely thing: unless you’ve planned out a week’s worth of meals in advance, you’re probably feeling tempted to skip cooking dinner and go the route of fast food, takeout, or something from the frozen aisle of the grocery store.

Start by adding some shredded carrots and purple cabbage to a pan. Add in some white beans, kale, and your favorite seasoning. Nutritional yeast and sriracha pair nicely with this dish. Serve this on top of rice for a healthy and hearty meal!

Not only do you not have to waste time cleaning pots and skillets for each separate component of the meal, but you also don’t need to make sure something’s not burning or getting mushy while you’re cooking on the stovetop. Everything you need stays nice and contained in one spot in front of you. So, you can be your hard-working self and still treat yourself to a hearty home-cooked meal.
