Kate Beck“This one is quick, cozy, and really tasty. Made this a lot with a new baby at home and we would double it, throw in some zucchini to up the veggie content if we felt like we needed it, and would doctor up a whole tub of yogurt to keep in the fridge. A fast dinner MVP and we looked forward to leftovers every time!”
