Lasagna with Slow Roasted Tomato Sauce
Slow-roasting the tomatoes gives the tomato sauce for this lasagna recipe an intense depth of flavor—which is then enhanced by the umami in onions, Parmesan and spinach. The lasagna noodles are layered into the lasagna uncooked; the moisture from the fresh spinach cooks them perfectly as the lasagna bakes in the oven.
Bibim Naengmyeon
The star of bibim naengmyeon is the sauce: a sweet, spicy, tangy mixture that combines well with the chewy noodles. While egg and beef often top this dish, this version skips them for a no-fuss vegan dish. For a more satisfying meal, top it with slices of fried or grilled tofu. It's best to eat this immediately; the noodles become stiffer and harder to mix the longer they sit.
Ground Beef & Snap Pea Rice Noodle Stir Fry
We've bulked up the serving size of this pad thai-inspired stir-fry by adding in lots of veggies like matchstick carrots, snap peas and scallions. Look for whole-grain brown-rice pad thai noodles to add another 3 grams of fiber to each serving.
Simple Vegan Pesto Zoodles
Zucchini noodles, or "zoodles," are a gluten-free, low-calorie substitute for traditional pasta in this easy and fresh vegan dinner. For best results, toss the zucchini pasta with the basil pesto sauce and serve right away.
Garlic Anchovy Pasta with Broccolini
Here, we sprinkle the final pasta dish with crumbled goat cheese for nice tangy bites throughout. But if you prefer a creamy sauce, stir the cheese into the pasta in Step 3 along with the reserved cooking water.
Mushroom Piccata Pasta
In this vegetarian rendition of chicken piccata, a medley of mixed mushrooms steps in as a substitute for chicken, maintaining the zesty caper-infused sauce. The combination of oyster, cremini and shiitake mushrooms adds the most flavor, though you can choose a single mushroom variety if you have a preference. Streamline your prep by opting for pre-sliced mushrooms, a timesaving hack for this flavorful dish.
