A special night in needs dinner that looks planned without turning the kitchen into a project. These 19 Marry Me recipes share the same creamy, sun-dried tomato style, but the list covers chicken, seafood, steak, pasta, beans, lentils, tofu, chickpeas, and dessert. The mix gives you quick skillet dinners, baked pasta, slow cooker chicken, plant-forward mains, and cookies to finish the meal.
