There are two words I love to hear, especially when it comes to cooking: quick and easy. It can be challenging to find time to cook [1] during the week, and even if you're dedicated to weekend meal prep [2], you probably don't have hours and hours to spend in the kitchen. Still, if you're on a low-carb diet [3], making healthy meals at home is essential. So, we've rounded up 15 recipes that couldn't be simpler to make, from grab-and-go breakfasts [4] to one-pan meals [5] that will feed the whole family. Scroll through for some inspiration, then jot down a grocery list [6] and get started.
Lemon-Garlic Chicken Drumsticks
You'll cut down on cooking time when you swap a whole chicken for drumsticks. Cracked pepper, lemon, garlic, and creamy butter make these irresistible.
