Not every night is a roast chicken and perfectly timed sides kind of night. Some nights, dinner is just… whatever’s in the fridge and enough to get everyone fed.

But these are the meals that somehow work. They come together quickly, use what you’ve got, and still taste like you meant to make them.

Whether you’re working, parenting, or just running on empty, these “Is-This-Dinner?” recipes are proof that dinner doesn’t have to be fancy. It just has to work.

Let’s get into it.
