January 26 to 30, 2026: What to Cook This Week

Looking for a few tasty and delicious dinner ideas as winter continues to drag on? We’ve got you covered! Check out these five weeknight recipes to try, from a vegetarian curry to a cozy mushroom pasta.

Monday: Tofu, Spinach and Pea Curry

For an aromatic curry that doesn’t take long to cook, try this tofu version that also features a good dose of vegetables. Topped with dollops of plain yogurt and served over rice, this delicious and hearty meal will be a hit with the whole family.

Tuesday: Beef and Egg Chilaquiles

One of life’s truest pleasures? Breakfast for dinner! Steak and eggs meet Mexican chilaquiles in this recipe that’s both hearty and comforting. Pour a homemade salsa over corn chips, top with a sandwich steak and sunny-side-up egg, and serve alongside rice and refried beans. It’s so good, you’ll probably want to have some the next morning, too.

Wednesday: One-Pot Creamy Chicken and Mushroom Pasta

Looking for something cozy, flavourful and perfect for a weeknight? Try this pasta dish with an umami kick. With a creamy, garlicky sauce and meatiness from both the chicken and mushrooms, it'll bring just the right dose of comfort.

Thursday: Sheet-Pan Shrimp Fried Rice

Fried rice is your classic quick and easy meal idea, especially given its versatility. You can add almost any protein and veggie, and it’ll still be absolutely delicious. This recipe calls for shrimp and, best of all, you bake it on a sheet pan for ease and simplicity.

Friday: Clementine Pork

During winter, clementines are at their peak. When you buy them in bulk and have a surplus, why not try making this recipe? The clementine-based sauce really brightens up the pork shoulder, that’s cooked low and slow during the day while you’re working. Perfect for bringing a bit of sunshine to a cold Friday evening.
