Minimal Ingredient Recipes

Let’s be real—when you’re running on fumes, you don’t want a recipe that needs 14 ingredients and three trips to the store. These minimal ingredient recipes typically only have 4 ingredients or less and are here for those tired, busy, not-in-the-mood days.

Whether it’s this ultra-savory, insanely delicious (over 500 reviews!) Instant Pot 3 Packet Roast, or a 4-ingredient Stick Of Butter Rice side dish, and this cozy 2-ingredient Cinnamon Roll Apple Cobbler for dessert, you’ll find easy, delicious meals that don’t ask much of you – or your grocery list.

Quick note! The ingredient count doesn’t include the usual suspects – things like oil, salt, pepper, garlic, and other common pantry seasonings. We’re here for flavor, not fuss.

Hungry for more? These flaky and savory Beef Hot Pockets are a snack-time win that looks after any roast leftovers, and this 4-ingredient tartar sauce is quick to whip up when you realize the one in your fridge is hairy and unrecognizable.

Easy cooking for tired humans? You’re in the right place.
