These weeknight dinner solutions are reader favorites and take advantage of summer produce.

By Emily Weinstein

We recently published a collection of the 50 most popular recipes of the year so far on New York Times Cooking. If nothing else, I hope it reminds you to make our furikake tomato sandwiches while supplies last (and by that I mean audaciously juicy summer tomatoes), and that there are few pleasures more pure than plunging deep into a bowl of Magnolia Bakery banana pudding.

I’ve included a few recipes from that collection below, and others I want you to know about before summer ends. I’m [email protected] if you want to reach out. I always love to hear from you.

The peanut sauce is so dominant and delicious that you could skip marinating the chicken in this Melissa Clark recipe and still get a great dinner. A tip for parents: Slather that sauce on anything you want kids to try.

Commenters are loving this recipe (“a stroke of simple brilliance!”) as an inspired way to put freezer dumplings to work and take advantage of those aforementioned tomatoes. Read through those comments for a lot of ideas on how to riff on this dish from Hetty Lui McKinnon.
