Harvest Butternut Squash Farro Salad in Easy Dinner Recipes,It’s the perfect healthy side dish this fall! Have you had farro before? If not, it’s one of those grains you’re missing out on. It is super hearty, fibrous, and has a nice “bite” to it, almost like pasta. It’s delicious! Sometimes I even prefer it to quinoa. Once all the vegetables are roasted they are tossed with the farro, some almonds, dried cranberries and then a super simple and light vinaigrette that has a hint of cinnamon in it!

Classic Napolitana Spaghetti in Easy Dinner Recipes,This classic Italian Spaghetti dish is confirmation that the simple things in life are often the best (and even better if you know a few tricks!).

Classic Napolitana Spaghetti
Tater Tot Waffle in Easy Dinner Recipes,Depending on the waffle maker that is being used for this recipe will indicate how many batches of waffles you'll need to make. A general rule of thumb is that each waffle is about 8 ounces of tots, so if you're working with a 4-piece Belgian Waffle Maker you can make all 4 waffles in one fell swoop. If you’re working with a 2-piece All-Clad, you’ll likely need to make 2 batches. Keep in mind, the beet-cured salmon that is used to top these waffles requires a 2-day cure, so make sure you’ve got that ready in the fridge!
Tater Tot Waffle
Easy Crab Cake in Easy Dinner Recipes,I think crab should be the primary flavor in Crab Cakes – not mustard or spices or bread crumbs: crab! Well, crab and a buttery crisp crust. Do you agree? If so, then this easy Crab Cake Recipe is for you! There is one challenge to this lump crab cake recipe: you'll have to be gentle when flipping them – they’re not little hockey pucks, so they require some finesse. But you'll also find them forgiving. Once you add the crab cakes to the pan, gently press down on the tops with a spatula to flatten them slightly and if they crumble a little on the flip, you can gently press them back together with your spatula. You'll get the hang of it, I promise. And the delicately crispy, buttery, crab-forward (is that a thing?) result will be totally worth the effort.
