I searched for "weeknight cooks" and surprisingly, found very little content on the forum.
Was hoping this thread could aspire to a compendium of simple, easy and quick recipes that'll get the job done on those nights where, sadly, we don't have quite as much time to spend at the grill.
Extra points if they're healthy! Our M.O. at home is that we strive to be good on week nights so that all caloric hell can break loose on weekends.
Would greatly appreciate seeing some of your faves!
(Tip: If typing the recipe from a book is too long, simply take a clear photo and upload it.)

No special recipes, but I've done turkey burgers, chicken breasts, and wings as quick healthier cooks for a weeknight or lunchtime cook.
Not necessarily healthy, but smash burgers don't take too long and are amazing.Large BGE

I hate it when I go to the kitchen for food and all I find are ingredients!

Do chicken breasts marinated and fish fillets seasoned almost weekly“There are three rules that I live by: never get less than twelve hours sleep; never play cards with a guy who has the same first name as a city; and never get involved with a woman with a tattoo of a dagger on her body.”

No recipes, but tacos are a necessity each week. Sometimes 2-3 times per week. Beef tacos, shrimp tacos, fish tacos, pulled pork tacos, chicken tacos....
