My life revolves around Ellie’s napping schedule. When she’s out, I catch up on on errands around the house and try to make lunch/dinner as fast as I can. You never know when she’s going to wake up! With this dish, it saves me a lot of time since everything is done in one pot. Easy as can be.
Instead of having to watch two or three different pots, I only have to keep my eye on one (that also makes cleaning up a lot easier). Not only that, but the whole meal can be served straight out of the pot. I don’t have to do anything additional once it’s done cooking.
You can your carbs, veggies, and protein, all in one dish. If you ask me, I’d say it’s a great deal.
