3-Ingredient Goat Cheese Pasta with Broccoli

Pick up a rotisserie chicken when you do your shopping this weekend, and Sunday’s dinner is only two more ingredients away! TheChicken Salad Tostadascombine chicken with a Southwest-style salad kit (which typically has the dressing included) to create a tasty high-protein topping for crispy tostadas. This easy no-cook dinner is quick and satisfying, both in terms of its protein content (30 grams per serving) and the crunch you get from the salad and tostada. Next up is Monday’sCheese Tortellini with Tomatoes & Basil. For this dinner, cherry tomatoes are roasted until they’re sweet and super flavorful. Then they’re added to cheesy tortellini and topped with fresh basil. You really can’t go wrong with this fresh combo.

Tuesday’sGoat Cheese Pasta with Broccoliis absolutely delicious. If you haven’t tried adding tart, creamy goat cheese to your pasta before, it’s going to be your new favorite addition. I’ve also played around with adding different veggies to this pasta and have even mixed in a jar of Trader Joe’s Bruschetta. No matter what, it always turns out tasty. Looking ahead to Wednesday’sOne-Pot Lemon Pasta with Rotisserie Chicken, you’ll use up the rest of your rotisserie chicken for the week, and for Friday’sRefried Bean & Pico de Gallo Tostadas, you’ll use up your remaining pack of tostadas. Both are delicious ways to clear out your fridge. Enjoy!

Piña coladas are one of my favorite summer treats. Sipping on one makes me instantly feel like I’m on a tropical island! I love that this version only uses three ingredients: frozen pineapple, coconut milk and rum. The frozen pineapple gives this juicy drink just the right amount of sweetness, and the canned coconut milk provides creaminess and that signature coconut flavor we love in a piña colada.
