As busy people, we are always trying to find a shortcut to making dinner, at least I am! I follow Jessica Flanigan of AIP Lifestyle (AIP stands for autoimmune protocol - it is a way of eating for people suffering from autoimmune conditions) on social media, and she starting posting about these one dish dish Paleo meals she was making on Instagram. You can find all of them here. And if you aren't Paleo or whatever, don't worry, you'll love these anyway. The beauty of these dishes is also that you can modify to whatever you have in your refrigerator/pantry.

This one was the first one I made, and let me tell you - I was hooked! So delicious, flavorful, easy (and easy to clean up!), AND, I had leftovers!
