Baked Salmon in Easy Dinner Recipes,All of my best tips for how to make the most perfectly baked salmon in the oven. This baked salmon recipe is easy to customize with your favorite seasonings and takes less than 15 minutes from start to finish. When I took requests for this series, salmon was by far and away from the most popular fish that you all wanted to learn about. And with good reason — it’s a fish that’s delicious, affordable, easy to find, packed with protein and omega-3s and other healthy nutrients, and it pairs beautifully with a variety of different seasonings and sauces. It’s also incredibly easy to make baked salmon in the oven, which is my favorite way to prepare it. With a few simple tips, your salmon can be perfectly crispy on the outside, moist and tender and flaky on the inside.

Easy Instant Pot Chicken Marsala in Easy Dinner Recipes,This Easy Instant Pot Chicken Marsala is one of the easiest dinner ever! It’s creamy, succulent, ultra-flavorful, and easy to pull off. It comes together in about 60 minutes, which in my book, makes it the perfect weeknight meal. I decided to use boneless and skinless chicken breasts because we like white meat better but feel free to use chicken thighs, or even legs, for ultimate tenderness. The trick to brown meat in the Instant Pot is to do it in small batches and not turning until they have formed a crust on the bottom, or they will stick.

That is the magic of pressure cooking at it’s finest!

Cheeseburger Meatloaf in Easy Dinner Recipes,This meatloaf is extremely juicy, and the potential variety of different flavors is as big as your imagination. I've done American cheese with ketchup and mustard on top and served with dill pickle chips. Another one might be cheese and mushroom topping. I suggest using an 85/15 ground beef because the higher fat content ensures a more tender and moist meatloaf. You can use lower-fat ground beef, but your meatloaf will likely be a little more firm and less juicy.
