A tender oven-baked skillet pancake made with rolled oats, Greek yogurt, blueberries, and a bright lemon yogurt topping. It slices neatly, reheats well, and works for a slow weekend breakfast or a make-ahead weekday option.
A flexible lunch or platter-style meal with smoky roasted chickpeas, warm pita, crisp vegetables, and a lemony herb yogurt sauce. Drying the chickpeas well and giving them room on the pan keeps them crisp at the edges.
A fast weeknight rice bowl with saucy ground turkey, crisp vegetables, scallions, and a balanced honey garlic sauce. The components can be prepped ahead for practical meal prep lunches.
A small pan of buttery peach crumble bars with a shortbread-style base, a vanilla lemon peach filling, and a golden crumb topping. The bars are sturdy enough to pick up once cooled but soft enough to feel like a summer dessert.
