WOW! I am so glad I found this recipe and don’t you know I’ll be using this a lot more often. I was looking for something I could make for lunches for me to eat now that I work from home.
I am a simple food person. I don’t like things to be complicated. I’m also someone who can eat the same thing for a meal several days in a row. If it’s an easy “leftover” and simple to reheat. These don’t even have to be reheated!!
