Got a busy night ahead? Want a delicious meal, with minimal dishes? This collection of One Dish Meal Ideas is just what you need! I like to keep it real around these parts. I kind of hate cooking. NOT becuase I don’t enjoy the process, or experimenting with flavors, or the results of a recipe done right… Nope. I love all of those parts of cooking. The part I despise? Dishes!

Doing the dishes is THE WORST! amiright?

I’m totally right.

    So many of the titles sounded really, really good.
