Here's a dish I've been making constantly because it's so quick and satisfying. Grilled white beans with avocado comes together in under an hour and honestly feels fancy enough for guests but simple enough for a weeknight dinner. White beans are packed with fiber and protein, so you'll stay full for hours, and the creamy avocado paired with that smoky char from grilling is just unbeatable. The best part is how affordable these ingredients are, and most of them probably live in your pantry already. Fresh lime and cilantro brighten everything up, making it taste like you spent way more effort than you actually did.
