We’ve all been there: it’s been a long day, the commute was brutal, and the thought of making dinner sounds impossibly daunting. So, we challenged ourselves to create incredible recipes that use no more than four ingredients— and, better yet, feature some of our customer-favorite Best of Met items.
The Star: Ahi Tuna Poke
We’ve put a lot of things on nachos, but raw fish? This one was a gamble. But between sweet-meets-salty taro chips, flavorful furikake, and fresh guacamole, this just might be our new favorite way to eat poke!
The Star: Rotisserie Chicken
If we were to rank time-saving weeknight cooking hacks, securing a really good rotisserie chicken would absolutely top the list. It’s incredibly versatile and you can normally get a couple meals out of it. (Lunch the next day, anyone?) Combine it with prepared sauce and a couple of fresh veggies, and dinner is instantly transformed into something new and delicious.
The Star: Dungeness Crab Cakes
Crab cakes feel fancy, but they’re surprisingly easy to cook. A quick sear in a skillet—just a few minutes per side—and they’re ready to enjoy. Paired with a bright, crunchy sesame-ginger slaw, they make for a meal that feels special with hardly any effort.
The Star: Large AA Organic Eggs
Breakfast for dinner—or "brinner," if you were to use the ultra-scientific, technical term—is a tasty and nostalgic way to end the day. This version is loaded with potatoes and red peppers, with bacon as an optional (but highly recommended) upgrade. Keep the yolks slightly runny so they ooze over the hash, coating everything with rich, golden flavor.
The Star: The Cookie
There’s no wrong way to enjoy The Cookie, and this ice cream cake is further proof! Layers of crumbly cookie pieces and creamy ice cream come together for an indulgent frozen treat that feels both playful and decadent.
