Notes
I love any meal that is easy, healthy and adds flavor to my family’s dinner time bringing them racing to the table. With busy schedules, I need all the help I can get and this is a great meal to throw together or make ahead on the weekend and reheat. You can also double it and freeze the other 1/2 to put in smaller lunch sized containers creating re-heatable lunches. And best of all…1 pot clean-up!
Enjoy!
