Sarah’s Top Tips for the Week

  • Double the turkey bolognese and freeze half for an easy, ready-to-go dinner later in the month.
  • Prep veggies ahead for the Thai meatball soup and halibut—chop once and use twice to save time.
  • Start with a one-pot meal like the curry soup to enjoy cozy dinner and convenient leftovers for lunch.
  • Check your pantry before shopping — you probably have many spices and staples already on hand.
