What’s for dinner?  As days grow shorter and evenings get cooler we turn to comfort foods and meals that can be cooked easily.  These 5 recipes showcase a variety of proteins and come together fast on a weeknight.

1. French Dip Burger

Here’s a fun upgrade to the classic French dip sandwich. We used our juicy Angus ground beef for the burger and paired it with balsamic onions and melty cheese. A garlic toasted roll will soak up all that delicious homemade jus.

2. Eggs Poached in Spicy Tomato Sauce with Andouille & Peppers

This easy one-skillet recipe poaches eggs in tomato sauce with andouille sausage in no time.  Called shakshuka, this slightly spicy Middle Eastern style dish makes a hearty breakfast, lunch, or dinner.

3. Pan-Seared Veal Chops with Citrus-Herb Butter

Try this easy pan-seared veal chop recipe topped with a compound butter of fresh herbs and lemon zest, that’s quick enough for weeknight dinners.

4. Lamb Meatballs with Harissa-Yogurt Sauce

Meatballs but with lamb. We like our grass-fed ground lamb for this baked meatball recipe that comes together quickly. The pleasing crust and tender center are complemented by a creamy harissa-spiked yogurt.

5. Poulet Chasseur

Braised Green Circle chicken legs with bacon, mushrooms, tomatoes, and wine is our favorite kind of comfort food – hearty and satisfying. This version of the classic “hunter’s chicken” recipe is quick and easy enough for a weeknight – and no hunting required.
