Easy Meals to Make for a Group
Whether you're cooking for yourself and want to meal prep or you're cooking for multiple people, it's convenient to know how to cook for a group! It can be difficult to figure out what to make if you have to cook a big meal, so we are going to go over some recipes that you're sure to love. We've made sure to include recipes that vary in skill, time-commitment, and ingredients, so no matter what the circumstances are and what you have in the pantry, you'll be able to make one of these meals. Let's dive into some easy meals to make for a group here!
Easy Burrito Recipe
There's nothing tastier than a burrito, and we love this Easy Burrito Recipe. All you need for this recipe is ground beef, a pack of taco seasoning, a can of refried beans, frozen corn, cooked rice, flour tortillas, and shredded cheese. First, you've got to make the rice and cook the beef with the taco seasoning. Then, put all the ingredients on a flour tortilla, fold the burrito, and bake for around 25 minutes at 350 F. Enjoy!
Quick Grilled Cheese and Tomato Soup
Colder weather warrants soup, but even when the weather is warm, a Quick Grilled Cheese and Tomato Souprecipe will hit the spot. The best thing about this recipe is the fact that you can customize it to your needs. If you're busy, use canned soup, but if you have time, make the soup from scratch. You'll need cheese, bread, and ham for the grilled cheese (jam is optional if you're looking to be fancy). For the soup, you'll need butter, onion, sugar, tomatoes, stock, vinegar, and cream—unless you opt to use canned soup, then all you need is a can of soup!
Simple One-Pot Chili
On those nights that you want a one-pot meal, you should check out this Simple One-Pot Chili Recipe. For this chili, you need to get some ground beef, onion, garlic, kidney beans, diced tomatoes, tomato paste, green chilis, chicken broth, and spices. However, if you're looking for a meatless meal or don't have meat on hand, just up the amount of beans you put in the chili and skip the beef. You can put any kind of bean you have on hand—black beans, kidney beans, or whatever else! To make this chili, chop up the onion and cook it with the beef, then add the rest of your ingredients, bring it to a boil, and simmer for half an hour.
Fettuccine Alfredo for Beginners
Sometimes you're craving tasty noodles, and when you are, it's time for you to make this Fettuccine Alfredo for Beginners. All you need are five ingredients: fettuccine noodles, a stick of butter, heavy cream, salt/pepper, and parmesan cheese. Cook the pasta. Then, warm up the butter and cream in a pan with salt and pepper and grate parmesan cheese over this combination. Combine the pasta with this mixture and add more parmesan. We recommend serving this meal with a lean protein, like grilled chicken and a fresh salad!
Fast Chicken Pot Pie
Chicken pot pie is a satisfying meal that almost everyone loves. If you're looking for an easy recipe that will feed a lot of people, check out this Fast Chicken Pot Pie recipe. All you will need for this recipe is unsalted butter, flour, a frozen vegetable blend, chicken broth, whipping cream, shredded chicken (from a rotisserie chicken), thyme, and frozen puff pastry. First, in a skillet, melt the butter and add in the flour—stir until it's smooth. This mixture should be hot, and then you'll add in the broth, vegetables, cream, chicken, and thyme. Put the puff pastry over the skillet, and cook for around 18 minutes at 425 F.
Weeknight Turkey Burgers
Burgers are fun and easy weeknight dinners, but have you tried making a turkey burger before? We love this Weeknight Turkey Burger recipe, which is made with ground turkey, garlic, yellow onion, oregano, salt, and pepper. Add the ground turkey with the rest of the ingredients, shape them into patties, and cook them up with some oil in a skillet. You can toast some brioche buns and put tomatoes, lettuce, onions, ketchup, and mustard on top of your patty. Serve with chips and fruit to make things easy for you.
