This recipe is all about balance: comforting, cheesy, and filling, but still efficient and practical, especially if you're following along with the meal plan. The potatoes are microwaved first to speed things up, then roasted for that perfect crispy skin. The BBQ beef comes together quickly with just a few pantry staples, and the broccoli cheese sauce is rich, creamy, and built to stretch across a couple meals if you're planning ahead.

What I love about this one is that it feels like something you’d get at a casual spot, but it’s completely doable at home on a weeknight. You can prep some elements in advance or build it fresh; it works either way. Use whatever cheese you have, top it how you like, and don’t overthink it. It’s a comfort meal with range.
