Happy first day of March everyone! I can't believe it's been almost a year since all the craziness started: one year that my boys haven't set foot in a classroom, one year of working from home, which also means... one year of making breakfast, lunch and dinner for the four of us. Every. Single. Day! Thank goodness that's what I love to do, but still. Sometimes it can be a struggle to find something new/different/exciting to bring to the table. So if you are looking for inspiration, like I always do, here is something easy, quick and delicious that I'm sure you are going to love. Take a look!
