Weeknight Winners®

Fregola is a toasted semolina pasta with a nutty flavor that's very popular in Sardinia. This salad includes orange, grapefruit, onion, and herbs.

The perfect solution when you need a last-moment sweet something or crave a little something sweet but don’t want an entire pan sitting around to tempt you.

Your newest go-to appetizer. (Or, on lazy nights when you feel like indulging, your dinner. Don't forget the wine.)

This frugal supper is laughably easy to make, European in flair, and comforting to both the palate and the pocketbook.

Get ready to have all your expectations for this French classic surpassed. And without much expense or effort.

An easy weeknight meal that's an unassuming melding of red lentils, harissa, sautéed onions, and garlicky tahini sauce that can only be described as magical. (Yes, lentils can be magic.)

Simple yet spectacular green beans thanks to the perfect technique from Alain Ducasse.

Comfort in a bowl, Italian-style. Quite adept at healing all that ails you.

Succulent. Crisp-skinned. Simple. If that's what you seek in a roast hen, your search stops with this ooh- and aah-inducing technique.

These sexy salmon fillets have got "come hither" appeal in spades thanks to a citrusy lilt and a beguiling blend of spices.

A proper dinner any night, this chocolate sandwich with a French accent is a far cry from Wonder bread and Hershey's. Oooooh sooooo far.

A keto-friendly, low-carb, gluten-free riff on the Asian classic that lacks nothing in appeal yet is crazy underwhelming in terms of its carbohydrate load.

The sort of simple dish that looks (and tastes!) like you spent all day preparing it but, in reality, requires only a handful of pantry ingredients and is completely doable on a weeknight.

Americans may not know how to pronounce broccoli rabe, but Italians sure know how to cook it. Here's how they do it. Er, prego.

There's nothing wallflowerish about this stir-fry, not with its gingery zing of tongue-tingling, sinus-clearing, tummy-settling ginger. Nothing at all.

"Amazing." "Wonderful." "Warm satisfaction." "Won the make-it-again award." "Easy." "Quick." That's what we're hearing about this luxuriously satiating soup.

Hello, weeknight supper scrounged from the pantry. And with no compromise whatsoever in terms of taste. We're actually hearing this reminds folks of something they'd order at a cafe in SoHo.

Elegant yet exceedingly simple, this white wine linguine beguiles with its rich, silken flavor despite the absence of cream and a touch of butter.

An impressive and enticing use for healthy roots and tubers that, thankfully, doesn't taste virtuous at all. In fact, it actually feels quite indulgent.
