I love to cook, but I'm kind of a lazy cook.
I want my meals to be healthy, made with simple ingredients and to be macro-friendly to my goals, but I also don't want to spend a lot of time in the kitchen.
So when I came across this recipe I knew it would be a family-favorite and I just had to share it with you!
