It's that time again. The work/school day has come and gone, and it's time to put dinner together. And while we believe that every meal should be treated with the respect it deserves (#makemealsmemories), sometimes a kitchen-island dinner is all we can muster. And while some nights are easy (all hail the frozen pizza + tossed salad combo), at least once a week I run into a rut and can not for the life of me figure out what to make. I have a feeling I'm not alone in this, so I thought I'd share a list of my top 10 favorite weeknight recipes for you to refer to when you find yourself in that "what's-for-dinner" rut! xL

This simple and easy recipe is a crowd favorite. Nothing beats a meatball, am I right? Plus it takes 10 minutes of prep, with things you probably already have in your pantry, and then voilà, you're done!

This cabbage wrap recipe is one the best! It's made with such simple ingredients, but boy is it flavorful! While it's best during warmer seasons, it's so easy and so tasty that we have it year round.

The best part of this recipe is that it just uses one pot and is ready in under an hour! Plus, it has a layer of crunchy cheese on top and what's not to love about that?
Healthier Homemade Crunchwrap Supreme

While a wrap is good, a loaded crunchwrap is just better. A twist on the famous fast food cuisine, this healthier recipe is everyone's favorite.
Chinese Chicken and Broccoli

The classic American Chinese chicken and broccoli turned Whole-30 approved, count me in! The brown sauce in this recipe is also to die for, it's as rich and flavorful as it gets.
Slow Baked Citrus Salmon with Fennel & Herbs

This recipe is special because instead of doing a quick broil with high heat, you do a slow broil with low heat making the most tender and flaky salmon you've ever had! And it still takes less 30 minutes to cook!
Sheet Pan Pizza
