The Big Omega Sandwich 10

Our supercharged salmon sandwich gives delicious incentive to ditch its fast-food counterparts.

Egg Foo Yong with Mushroom Sauce 4

Think of egg foo yong as a cross between an American-style omelet and a crispy Chinese pancake, loaded with vegetables and topped with a savory mushroom “gravy.” It’s a superspeedy meal thanks to packaged broccoli slaw, matchstick-cut carrots, and microwaveable brown rice.

Mostly Veggie Pasta with Sausage 2

Spaghetti sauce is typically about a pound of browned meat bound by a scant amount of marinara and served over pasta. Here we reverse the ratio, letting hot Italian turkey sausage be the flavor agent while adding plenty of colorful vegetables like yellow squash, broccoli florets, and mushrooms.
