5 days ago | simplyrecipes.com | Micah Siva

Simply Recipes / Frank Tiu Welcome, summer! After a busy weekend of hosting, I’m ready for weeknight meals that feel easy. Being new to the Midwest (after living in California for the past five years), I couldn’t be happier to have sunny days and local produce popping up. Now that summertime is something to revere (versus perpetual decent weather, all year long), it is my mission to soak it up until the last leaf falls from the trees.

Simply Recipes / Sarah Crowder While we’re enjoying our time at home now, we’re headed to New York shortly, so clearing out my fridge is at the top of my mind. Let’s be honest, I’m always trying (and failing) to clear out my fridge. But on top of our upcoming travels, we have another set of friends with us for the long weekend, so that means we’re taking dinner outside with Memorial Day-worthy dinners that I know they’ll love, from build-your-own poke bowls to juicy turkey burgers on the grill.

Simply Recipes / Jaden Hair We’re having some friends from out of town stay with us this week, so I’m looking for crowd pleasers that won’t keep me in the kitchen all day. Whenever I have friends stay over, I want them to feel at home. I’ve stocked my fridge with fresh-cut fruit and vegetables and popped into Trader Joe’s to get some snacks (our guests are Canadian, and one of my favorite things to do is share all my TJ’s picks with them!).

Simply Recipes / Micah Siva Comfort food looks different for everyone. For some, it’s a bowl of macaroni and cheese, for others, it’s their grandmother’s chicken soup, or Nonna’s lasagna. For me, anytime I’m sick, sad, grumpy, or just feeling like I need a hug, I turn to this five-minute snack. I've made a few upgrades that reflect my grown-up palate (not to mention my millennial pantry).

Simply Recipes / Micah Siva Throughout high school and the summers during my college years, I worked at our local farmers market in Calgary, Canada. After a year scooping gelato, I switched over to working at a large produce stand that had a special feature: a “vegetable butcher” who would chop, dice, peel, and prepare your picks to make your week easier.

Simply Recipes / Adobe Stock I love making smoothies for breakfast, lunch, or even a midday snack. I like controlling what I put in, the flavor, and even sneaking in a few good-for-you ingredients to make sure I hit my fruit and vegetable goals for the day. For years, I was buying spinach for the sole purpose of adding it to my smoothies, until one day, I ran out. I knew I wanted something green, but didn’t have anything in the fridge.

Simply Recipes / Sally Vargas This week, I find myself out of town, which means my husband is left to fend for himself.

Whenever I leave him to his own devices, I always stock the fridge with foods I know he’ll like, and fill the freezer (labelled!!) with easy meals I know he’ll like.
