Life is hectic and busy, I get it! Figuring out what to cook for dinner is one of the worst first world problems of adulthood right 😉
I love sharing what I make on my Instagram because I’m always looking for ideas too! I love to cook healthy, but in a way that isn’t super bland and boring! So I figured I would round up a few of my favorite go to meals that I cook during the week! Sometimes I get fancy and try new things, but these are SO easy and don’t take a lot of time which is even more of a plus for me! Let’s get into it….

And 3/4 of the jar refilled with water into pan
Cover and let simmer for 20mins

Add cheese (dairy free for me) and put in oven for 3-4 mins
Can always swap noodle for spaghetti squash (we do that sometimes when we want less carb)
