While contemplating your dinner options on your drive home from work, coming up with something that is easy to put together, nourishing, and substantial can be tricky. Especially if you’re craving a change. You’ve exhausted yourself with lean green pasta recipes, and if you see another sheet pan dinner, you *might* scream.
