What's an easy, new recipe you've made a lot recently?

[Anonymous]

I make this soup a lot:

Sauté a large onion and a handful of chopped garlic in a stockpot. Add and cook up one package of chicken Italian sausage, not links but the loose sausage. Peel and chop 4 sweet potatoes. Add sweet potatoes to the pot with a container of chicken stock ( or more depending on how big your potatoes were.) Cook for an hour. At the very end, add a couple of handfuls of lacinato kale. You barely need salt and pepper because of the spices in the sausage. Gently break apart the soft potato pieces with the back of a wooden spoon so there are no large pieces.

Delicious every time.

So here goes -

1 can of drained chickpeas
1 large boiled and chopped Ube (Okinawa purple yam)
2 teaspoon finely chopped onion
1 teaspoon finely chopped cilantro
1/4 teaspoon finely chopped green chillies (minus the seeds, skip if you do not like heat)
Black salt to taste (or any plain salt if you do not like the egg taste of black salt)
1/2 tsp of paprika or red chilli powder (skip if you do not like heat)
1/2 tsp ground roasted cumin
1/2 tsp of mint or coriander chutney (store bought)
1/2 tsp of tamarind-date chutney (store bought)
4 tablespoon of plain yogurt (non-fat version will work well)
A handful of crushed kerala plantain chips - Ethakka Upperi (any commercial non-sweetened banana chips will work)

Mix it all together and eat. It is addictive.

Oh, and if you want to make your own plantain chips here to store - https://thefamiliarkitchen.com/banana-chips-ethakka-upperi/

Love the healthy part of this. But NO way to raw onion.

Really? It is two TEASPOONS of raw onion.... for probably two servings? That's like one slice of onion.

You can skip the raw onions if you want. It is truly just a slice of onion and very finely chopped.
It is super delicious and fast. Only work is in boiling the ube. It comes to 4 servings. Add extra yogurt if you want it more luscious. At times we have also added crushed WF pita chips in it, skipped the banana chips if we were out of it, added roasted peanuts, added a sprinkle of pomegranate seeds. The secret is the vanilla sweetness of the ube, the taste of chickpeas, yogurt. The chutneys and spices takes it to another level. So good. I am losing weight just eating this for one meal. One tip. You can nuke it for 30seconds if you want it room temp. The yogurt is usually from the fridge and DH prefers it lukewarm.

I'm the no onion poster. I like the taste but raw just stays on you. for. ever.
Can I sub sweet potato for the ube? Going to have to seek out the chutneys. I have never bought chutney before! Love the idea of peanuts, pom seeds, etc.

I have an easy sesame noodle recipe I start with and then I toss in a protein and a vegetable, like tofu (we are vegetarians) and broccoli. It’s one if the few things everyone eats without complaint.

Cincinnati chili served over spaghetti (with shredded cheddar and/or onions, if you like them). So easy and really good! We use the seasoning pack below and just add ground beef and tomato paste. Wish I could find the mix in stores around here but no luck thus far.

If I'm in a hurry, I'll skip the marinated carrots/onions, and cut back on the number of different toppings. My kids are happy with just the meat wrapped up in a leaf of lettuce.

If you think "but I don't like cabbage," consider whether this might be different enough that you will. The caramelized cabbage is delicious -- like caramelized onions

My sister in law shared this one with us. Can vouch that it's easy and delicious. Extra butter is the way.

Made this last week and it was a huge hit. Serve with a great bread of your choice. Even the kids loved the cabbage. So easy and so tasty.

This would be good with duck fat instead of butter too, I think.

It is!

I made this last night. I don’t love cabbage but thought I would try it. Didn’t care for the cabbage, but loved the chicken! Think I’ll try it with peppers and onions next time.

Tried this one tonight. Everyone liked it.

OP, thanks for this thread. It got buried in all the Thanksgiving discussions, but this is the second meal I’ve tried that was recommended here.

Bumping this thread because I’m bored of most of my recipes lately.

I loved stuffed peppers with farro and ground turkey. I buy the farro at Trader Joe's because it cooks in 10 minutes.

This is an easy one too. I make it at least 2-3 times a month. Everyone loves it.

This isn't a new recipe but something I found on the back of a Mueller's elbow macaroni box back in the 80s. This was a favorite of my kids and easy and cheap for me. Vegetarian but you could certainly add ground beef, chorizo etc.

I found this - egg roll in a bowl - and everyone likes it. I serve it over cauliflower rice for me, and real rice for the rest of the family - everyone loves it, even the picky eater. Super fast and easy!
