Want to make dinner without measuring, memorizing recipes, or running back to the store? In this video, we break down five flexible cooking methods that help you get a satisfying meal on the table using whatever ingredients you already have. Once you know these go-to techniques, you can mix and match proteins, vegetables and pantry staples to cook dinner with confidence—no recipe required.

From easy one-pan dinners to creamy casseroles, sheet pan meals, pan-roasted meats with simple sauces and one-pot pasta dinners, each method is designed for real-life cooking. These approaches work for busy weeknights, cleaning out the fridge, or anytime you want dinner to feel easier and more intuitive. The goal isn’t perfection—it’s understanding a few core methods that let you adapt, improvise and cook something good every time.
