With a grocery list and a game plan.
Shop for all the ingredients in these recipes at the same time (you'll find a grocery list at the bottom of this post) — because who has time for the miserable, stupid grocery store twice in a week?
The three herbs you're going to buy (tarragon, Italian flat-leaf parsley, and basil) are used in all three recipes — sometimes together, sometimes separately. Any leftover herbs should be muddled together with a bit of sugar and gin (and a cucumber slice, if you have it handy) and served over ice with a splash of soda water any (or every) night.

RECIPE #1: Herb-Roasted Salmon with Fingerling Potatoes
To ensure fresh flavor, make the salmon first this week (within one or two days of your shopping trip). The recipe yields enough potatoes and enough salad dressing for both this dinner and for Recipe #3, so make sure to set aside half of each.
