Donya’s Tips for a Successful Midweek Meal:
Plan ahead: Before you head to the grocery store, review the recipes and make a shopping list.
Prep ahead: If you have time, prep some of the ingredients in advance, such as chopping vegetables or cooking the pasta.
Don’t be afraid to substitute: If you don’t have a particular ingredient on hand, don’t be afraid to substitute with something similar. For example, you could use spinach instead of basil in the Caprese Pasta Salad.
