Modify menus with novel recipes
8/28/2025 by By Mayo Clinic staff
Sometimes the addition of just a couple of new recipes to the usual rotation can be a boost to evening meal excitement and interest. The Mayo Clinic Recipe Collections pages include a multitude of recipes found under headings such as “Simple Meals,” “Family Friendly” and “One-Pan Meals.” The possibilities are endless with even more categories to choose from, including “Tasty Lunches,” “Summer Meals” and “Healthy BBQ.”
Here are a few selections to start with:
- Baked pesto salmon.
- Cheesy muffin pizzas.
- One-pan fajita chicken tray bake.
- One-pan sweet chili chicken and vegetables.
- Simple hoisin beef stir-fry.
Ask family members to do some recipe surfing on their own to propose options that might sound good to them. The recipes from the Recipe Collections site is a good place to start and includes a nutritional analysis for each recipe.
The Diabetes Food Hub website also offers recipes and guides to help plan meals and create grocery lists. The recipes on this site are healthful for everyone, not just for people with diabetes.
Finding healthy and easy-to-fix recipe ideas has never been easier. Check out the recipes on these sites and start enjoying the new flair. Which recipes will become new favorites and help to revamp your menu rotation?
