Dinner on Monday night can be one of those maddening things for us. Every now and then I have these great intentions on Sunday to have a healthy, yummy meal plan for the whole week, but then Monday comes along and lays me out flat. Going back to work and school on Monday’s is always such a shock to my system, despite it’s regular appearance. And it is so easy to throw my very yummy, but somewhat complicated, dinner plan out the window. In those instances I am grateful for the few almost-one-pot wonders from our stock pantry items.
