Monday: Pasta and Chickpea Ragù
This hearty, comforting dish is made with broth (chicken or vegetable), chickpeas, potatoes and short pasta. The soup should have a thick texture, similar to that of a purée or stew. Garnish generously with grated Grana Padano cheese and eat with a spoon!

Wednesday: Thai Veal Scaloppini
Scaloppini are small, very thin veal cutlets. Here, we’re inspired by Thai cuisine by coating them with crushed peanuts. The creamy coconut, lime juice and cilantro sauce is complex and rich, and complements soba noodles with snow peas and sautéed red peppers.

Thursday: Sheet-Pan Shrimp, Black Beans and Chorizo
We love sheet-pan recipes that are quick, easy... and avoid piles of dirty dishes after dinner. This one is particularly fun to eat, with its bright colours and peppy flavours. Eat it all as is or even serve it in tacos!

Friday: Beef Sub on Naan
Submarines? Pizza? A little bit of both. To end the week on a casual note, spread sautéed ground beef with onions and peppers on naan bread, add a little shredded mozzarella and bake for a few minutes. Finish with iceberg lettuce, tomatoes and balsamic vinegar. Simple and delicious!
