It's time to make dinner. You think of an appealing dish, hunt down the recipe, and realize it has 15 ingredients. You think, "Not tonight. I just don't have the energy."
We get it. Some nights are perfect for chopping vegetables, making sauces, and measuring spices. Other nights call for throwing a few ingredients together and changing into sweats (or maybe changing into sweats first).
For those nights, these are our 10 most saved recipes that call for only five main ingredients and require only the little energy you have left after a long work day.
Easy and Quick Halushki
This traditional Eastern European dish of bacon, onion, cabbage, and noodles is easy to prepare, budget friendly, and yummy.
Mushroom Pork Chops
The name says it all. Pork chops, mushrooms, onions, and cream of mushroom soup create chops with a creamy sauce that's a keeper.
Ground Beef and Cabbage
Simple and so very tasty, leftovers of this dish that our readers like to customize with various types of canned tomatoes are great to heat up for lunch.
