71 Spring Weeknight Dinners Everyone Will Love

Spring has sprung and, along with it, a bounty of fresh produce that’s perfect for family weeknight dinners. Tender spears of asparagus, flavorful artichokes, and stalks of oh-so-versatile rhubarb are all ready and waiting to supplement the cold-weather staples you still have stocked in your kitchen. We couldn’t be more excited about the new season (and new recipes for the rotation!) so we’ve rounded up all our best ideas, starting with this lighter, brighter take on a family favorite: golden-brown chicken cutlets. With a rich, creamy sauce and fresh spring peas, this dish is the perfect representation of the transition from winter to spring.

Shaved asparagus adds a bright note to this fast and easy weeknight classic. The thin green ribbons give the creamy fettuccine a perfect pop of color and spring flavor.

You’ve got to love a good shortcut – like this speedy dinner that uses quick-cooking ramen noodle packets to make a dish that’s just as good as your favorite takeout.
