Chef Tip:
Make the most of fresh produce by turning leftovers into lunch—extra salad works great in wraps or grain bowls. Buy seasonal produce like zucchini, peppers and potatoes for the best flavor and savings. Cook a big batch of quinoa or potatoes to use in different meals throughout the week—just change up the toppings or dressings for variety.
