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.
I want to make a delicious meal with as little dishes as possible! These One Dish Meal Ideas are perfect for busy nights when we don’t have a whole lot of prep/cooking time and really don’t want to spend a whole lot of time doing the dishes. Not to mention, they all look pretty darn tasty too!
