10 Takeout Menu Favorites to Make at Home!

The allure of ordering your favorite takeout meal on a crazy weeknight can be almost impossible to resist, whether it's Indian, Chinese, Thai, or the perennial favorite—pizza. It can feel like a necessary indulgence when life gets ahead of you.

However, sometimes it can be fun to cook your own takeout menu favorites at home!

These ten recipes — everything from Chicken Fried Rice to Spinach & Artichoke Pizza — will get you cooking something that's arguably better tasting and better for you than what you'll find on your average takeout menu. Plus, you can tailor the ingredients and spice level to your preference, which is a bonus!

How to Make Fluffy Scrambled Eggs

by Summer Miller

How to Make Scrambled Eggs

If sleeping is Heaven, and the frantic late-morning swirl of looking for homework, backpacks, umbrellas, lunches and jackets is Hell, then scrambled eggs for breakfast is the blissful purgatory in between. With dim lights and good food.

 

Chili Garlic Chicken

by Nick Evans

Grilled Chicken with Chili Garlic Sauce

It's finally grilling season and I couldn't be more excited to spend afternoons outside with my friends and family, making great food on the grill.

I like making burgers and hot dogs as much as the next person, but for me, this chili garlic chicken has become my favorite reason to light the grill.

Cherry Hand Pies

by Nick Evans

Hand Pies with Cherries

It's a small thing, but when I was about eight years old, I remember my parents letting me occasionally snag a cherry hand pie from the gas station when we filled up. It was a special treat, for sure, but one that I eventually grew out of because I found the packaged cherry hand pies to be too sweet.

Good news, though! I'm an adult now and I can make my own cherry pies—ones that have a better balance of sweet and tart flavors.

 

8 Simple & Satisfying Vegetarian Dinners

by Carrie Havranek

Vegetarian Dinners

What's for dinner? The question never stops being asked or needing to be answered!

If you're a vegetarian, or just really like eating that way often (like I do), it can be especially easy to fall into the same defaults: breakfast-for-dinner, soup, pasta, tacos.

 

Gluten-Free Chocolate Cake Donuts

by Megan Gordon

Vegan Gluten-Free Donut Recipe

We have a great vegan donut shop here in Seattle called Mighty O, and when out of town guests come to visit, my husband and I like to bring them in to check it out. Sometimes it can take a little arm-twisting (no, really, I swear they're good!), and I get it: I've had my fair share of ho-hum vegan baked goods.

But these donuts are truly exceptional because they taste like a traditional donut you ate while growing up as a kid. The texture is spot on—super tender and light.

So, I figured it was time to try my hand at making them at home. I went one step further and made my version gluten-free, so everyone could enjoy them.

{MEAL PLAN!} BLT Salad, Salmon Lettuce Wraps, Slow Cooker Curry, and MORE!

 
Meal Plan for June Week 1

Meal Plan for June Week 1

This month, we welcome back Marta Rivera for more of her meal plans. Marta is a trained chef, mom of twins, and Army wife – and she is also one of our Simply Recipes recipe testers!

I like to ease into summer break by gradually increasing the amount of work involved in preparing meals as the season progresses. What I mean is that I don't attempt large, complicated meals our first week out of school.

Instead, I focus on basic, simple meals that I can get the kids in the kitchen to help with (or even prepare on their own) — this is the way I like to welcome the school break.

Even if you don't have to worry about summer vacation meals, this meal plan will set you right for the week to come.

THIS WEEK: BLT Salad, Salmon Lettuce Wraps, Slow Cooker Chickpea Curry and MORE!
