Whether you’re working from home or going to the office these days, most of us really like to keep a clean, uncluttered kitchen. Even though those wonderful three-course meals are a treat to cook and to serve to guests, most likely there will be a multitude of pots, pans, utensils and dishes to clean up.
There are many one-pot recipes you can enjoy throughout the month. Plus the added benefit of keeping the washing up and scrubbing to a minimum. Those counters can be easily wiped down and then it is lights out to enjoy the rest of your day or evening!
Penne pasta in a skillet. This quick and delicious pasta meal is made with penne pasta, fresh tomato sauce and sausage - wonderful Italian-style comfort food. You can cook the pasta, drain the water and add the meat of your choice and a nice tomato or marinara sauce. Add seasonings, heat the mixture and you’re done!
Round Beef Roast Prepared with Carrots and Yams in French Oven. This one-pot meal is another easy clean-up. Brown the roast in the pan and then add broth and seasonings. Bake until almost done and then add the vegetables. As those soften, you can enjoy the mouth-watering smells wafting from your kitchen.
Fresh vegetables create a mouthwatering stew ready to be heated in a slow cooker. For those vegetarians or healthy eaters, this dish is easy and requires no constant stirring or watching the clock. Use veggies that can be thoroughly washed, perhaps peeled (or not) and added to broth to later enjoy a warm, crispy or soft mix of your favorite ingredients with a crusty artisan slice of bread.
